Jitsi Meet vs. Whereby

I think anyone can use host a meeting using Jitsi easily. It has user-friendly UI. It can be used for daily meetings, small online conferences, etc. Jitsi is best for having a quick conference call without having to think of its setup process. You can also create a separate lobby for people to wait while other people are busy talking in the main room.

If you cannot use another more common solution on the market or are looking for an alternative to the known solutions, it is a great alternative. If you have other tools already, and just want to test [them], that's fine, but I think the better-known ones have a better chance of using, knowing, and the learning curve will be shorter.

• Easy to use: The app is very, very easy to use. Literally just create a chat room (input a name) and access it to chat.
• Call/video quality: I've experienced better call quality on appear.in than in almost all other chat and video conferencing services out there.

• Scalability in terms of participation
• End point hardware improvement
• Stability of core
• Video quality while load generates

• The paid version may have dial-in. But I have always used the free version. Dial-in is typically required for an "official" multi-purpose teleconference platform.
• I did have some trouble with larger groups (5+) when it was Appear.in but almost always use it for small 1-on-1 or 3 person meetings.

We are using a larger tool suite that already includes video conferencing instead of our older approach of using different apps from different vendors. appear.in has a simple but great set of features but its pricing scheme is not as scalable as we really need in a 500+ employee company.

Very easy to use, technical and non-technical colleagues have used it with no instructions needed. That says all about the app and services.

Never had to contact support, so we cannot give a rating for their overall support. When we noticed the audio was not always great quality, we simply educated our users to mute the mic and use the in-room conference phone which is connected via a dedicated VOIP link and had much better voice quality. The video performance varied by locations network speed and found it got much worse when the room size increased to over 4 connections.

After a recommendation from a partner, as the system is very easy to use, we simply start.

For me, the main feature that separates Jitsi from other is the way how I can host a meeting. I can have both a public room as well as a secure private room with a password.

I find Zoom more complicated to use and harder to use because a lot of people do not like having to download things to their computers or devices and Whereby is so easy to get connected with . I like that Zoom offers larger rooms, but at this point the cost is not worth the extra expense.

• All in all, jitsi has made the communication between team members easy. Hosting a small meeting is not that difficult so people wo are working from home do not hesitate to start a meet whenever they feel needed.
• Remote working is not possible without proper communication and jitsi has been used for communication in my organization. So, it has been a very usefull tool for us.

• In general, any sort of online collaborations saves a lot on your budget. The meetings are rather more on time and can be efficient and short.
• Easy to drop-by and have a small talk with clients/teammates within COVID era.
• The URL makes you look fancy instead of a random hash.
