If you're on a bit of a budget the pricing for Join.me definitely makes it an easy choice. We were able to download it and get it up and running for free on a few of my teammates PCs that needed assistance with some computer setup. It can be a little confusing to access some of the features at first but once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy to use. Wouldn't necessarily recommend it for extremely large meetings, but it's excellent for smaller groups.
It is a very amazing tool for everyone who wants to experience the essence of real-time meetings in a virtual meeting. It has the capacity to withhold a large number of participants without creating any kind of trouble. Its integration and quality of video and audio are far beyond perfection. But [I feel] its customer service is quite pathetic.
Join.me has provided us many features that made it possible for us to communicate.
Another plus point is its staff which is pretty good ‘professional and highly supportive and is always there for help.
We can also connect with people outside our region and with its advanced functionality we have found it as the best audio conference software than any other software of its type.
it has made our audio meeting experience very effective.
In my experience when using the mobile app the quality drops when on cellular data, even with a strong signal. Given the current challenges, teams Face ID like to see the mobile capabilities get some improvement as it doesn’t seem to be optimized when not on a PC or wireless network.
Join.me is one of the easiest programs I've ever used. It's so easy to get it set up and installed and even easier for someone to join a meeting. The controls are very intuitive and labeled appropriately. The UIX makes sense. It's been a reliable product in my app stack-I love it!
I honestly haven't reached out to their Support team. I get notifications of what they are working on which is good to see, but I haven't directly spoken with any of them. I think my main reason for this is that join.me gives me just what I need (not much more and not much less).
We have tried a number of online meeting platforms since 2010 when we first commenced our online and international programs. Although Join.Me was a mainstay for us at first--affordable, safe, and great way to provide remote access that other platforms failed to provide--now we have found much less utility since we use Zoom which is affordable, provides a more robust and cohesive user experience, and now also provides remote access when granted.
I don’t like both of these tools. In both of these softwares, it was quite hard to generate a link for video meetings even in Zoom that was more tricky. Plus the price of both of these tools was much high than that of Hoot and that was another demerit. So, all these things compelled me to switch to Hoot and I am having a wonderful experience with it .
We have been able to beat the learning curve as Join.me is almost self explanatory to most of our team.
The cost per user ratio can feel a bit expensive but for the speed and convenience we feel it was the right investment
The biggest ROI is time, being able to go from email to meeting in a few clicks makes Join.me feel natural and not just another "video conferencing" tool that we use.
