    Chose Cisco Meeting Server (discontinued)
    Very similar tools and they all offer similar video/ conferencing experiences. Now Zoom has more applications connected, but I still feel Cisco is more stable when it comes to image quality with poor internet quality. GoTo Meeting has a bit better design, in my opinion, but we …

    Cisco meeting Server can be used to host meeting for a small group 2 people and also can host meeting for hundreds of people. Even if the scalability increases no compromise in the call and consistent performance can be observed. The video quality is clear and there is no noticeable latency between audio and video. The recording feature is well placed and it helps a lot in rectifying and processing the important points that might have been left out during the meeting.

    Return on Investment
    Discontinued Products
    • Good and robust collaboration tool which helped.
    • Easy integration with surrounding tools like MS office was great advantage.
    • Sharing recorded content wasn't easy, so had to use screen capture sometimes, which was not great.
