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.

For international meetings Huawei Cloud Meeting is a great platform. It really depends on the software already used by the company as to whether it would be a good fit or not. Some companies are hard set on Teams, Zoom, etc.

Apart from Cisco Meeting Server, only Poly offers full fledged on-premise meeting server. Their solution is called Polycom RealPresence
Collaboration Server. But there solutions are mostly outdated. Even though they have recently changes to subscription via Poly Clarity but servers are still very old. Whereas Cisco Meeting Server was recently updated and integrates well with WebEx and Cisco's other products.

Huawei Cloud Meeting has some unique features, but it really comes down to the preference of who you are meeting with. In this case Huawei Cloud Meeting would prefer their own platform and it very much held its own to zoom, teams, etc.

Return on Investment

  • 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.
