Chose Highfive (discontinued)
Highfive has much better video streaming than Skype for business. It allows for multiple attendees to stream at once and collaborate. The options for sharing your screen or desktop is good too.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
I have used most of these products primarily as a user and rarely as a host. The one I have the most experience with is Join.me. I believe that product better matches my needs and is much more flexible for small meetings that I host from my laptop. What they do not have is more …
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
In my opinion, Zoom is a far superior product to Highfive because it has everything that they are missing. The ability to remove people from meetings was a huge pain point for us as people will forget to close out of Highfive and we had no way of removing forcing us to create …
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
We ultimately did not actually select Highfive. Zoom was more robust than Highfive was and we were already using Zoom for external meetings. We just decided to switch everything to the same licensing.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
Webex is quite clunky. The user interface is not as simple to use as UberConference and you have to download an app in order to use it on your desktop. Because of this, new users are often late to meetings because of the time it takes to download the app. UberConference doesn't …
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
I haven't really used anything besides UberConference since I started my professional career. I know that RingCentral has something similar, but every other conference line I've seen has required a huge complicated PIN number. You won't believe how much of a difference that …
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
UberConference has a great platform that costs us nothing to use. We love it.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
Zoom and RingCentral do not have a free version, to my knowledge. The technology for both is good but requires a download which causes delays for new users, especially when working with multiple clients.

Google Hangouts is my go-to but many clients do not have access to Google …
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
UberConference offering the conference line and screensharing functions for free was the reason we chose it originally. We looked at Clearslide, Zoom and Webex, and at the time we looked at them they all required a fee and they had a lot more bells and whistles than …
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
UberConference works well but I think Loom might have a slight edge with screen share recording.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
UberConference is comparable to the other platforms for conference calls. We use Zoom internally but vendors use it to schedule our demo calls for their products and services.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
N/A - We have not worked to find other alternatives.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
They all have a free version. They all have clear audio and video. Skype has unlimited amount of time allowed where Zoom and now UberConference limit your calls to 45 minutes and then they just cut out.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
UberConference is so much more intuitive, easy to use, and easy to manage compared to FreeConfereceCall.com. The controls over user access and communication is unmatched, too. There's really no reason to ever use FreeConferenceCall.com once you experience UberConference.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
UberConference is a much cleaner tool than the other options out there. I prefer to host all conference meetings so we can use UberConference and avoid the other choices. Any time I'm invited to a meeting and a PIN is required, it's become a chore and annoyance.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
We selected UberConference due to its overall value: robust features and a competitive price.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
Uberconference in my opinion is the best software out there. One of the things that makes it especially better than all of the other options is that there is no additional software needed for us our our clients. We used to have so many issues with downloading software and …
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
I like the fact that UberConference does not require any downloads. Our being able to conference with clients and colleagues that may not be tech-savvy or may have their computers locked down by IT makes a huge difference to us. UberConference ease of use and free use tier are …
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
UberConference is free and easy to start and invite users to. It lacks the features of other paid options like Zoom and Slack, and even Zoom's free plan can often satisfy many of our requirements over UberConference.
Chose Highfive (discontinued)
If this had conference recording it would stack up well. It's not quite as fully featured, but it gets the job done.

User Testimonials
Highfive (discontinued)TokBird
Likelihood to Recommend
UberConference is well suited to almost any application. It is best suited for teleconference or p2p meetings over the computer. It can be used as a dial-in conference bridge but the paid tier offers more functionality on that level. It can even be used to technical support due to the built-in screen sharing feature and can be extremely useful when the end-user has no way to install an application privilege escalation. I would not recommend this as it's primary feature as this limited to just seeing what is on the screen and not so much geared toward remote-control or admin level administration. Uber Conference is extremely easy to setup and create spaces for having online meetings, it really excels at this and has handy visual aids to let you know what is going on with everyone else.

Pros
  • I appreciate being able to select a local phone number: it adds credibility and convenience for in-market clients/prospects.
  • I like being able to customize the hold music. One of our employees wrote and produced custom hold music for Anvil, which generates discussion and engagement as an ice-breaker.
  • The screen sharing is easy-to-use and is far more reliable than in the past. Prospects and clients do not have to download any app to make it work properly.

Cons
  • Can be very laggy - I have been part of screen share conferences where the connection keeps dropping.
  • Call quality is not always the best.
  • Limited functionality - this cannot be your all-in-one go-to conferencing solution because there are no video call capabilities.

UberConference is more expensive than some of its competitors and we have not found a real advantage to using UberConference over certain less-expensive applications. UberConference charges per month per organizer and those costs add up quickly, so we will be moving forward with a more budget-friendly option in the coming months.

Usability
The interface is intuitive and stupidly simple, no complicated sub-menus or configuration settings. Easy to create a meeting space and then have others join with a link or dial-in PIN on the free tier. On the paid tier it's even easier with PIN-less joining and automatic reminder calls to get participants to join.

Support Rating
I haven't needed support for the most part, which is a positive for Highfive. It's intuitive and most features are straightforward to use. In the one instance that I did contact them, it took them longer then expected to respond, but they were able to answer my question once they did.

Return on Investment
  • Our teams use this every day. It makes it easy to meet with clients and share a screen and display analytics.
  • Some of my clients thought that they need to register first to be able to contact me. It's bad that they are not notified in any way that it's enough just to enter its names and that's it.
