RemoteMeeting is a virtual conference room system that offers a simplified user experience with a modern and intuitive design and speed of just one click, it is a meeting tool that always has a room available for my team from anywhere and any device With powerful meeting modes for any occasion, it fully suits our daily virtual communication needs to connect with colleagues, customers, employees and vendors with the ease of just screen sharing with the unique and enjoyable collaboration experience.
Skype is useful for collaborations across distances, including work from home, as well as a more convenient way to communicate with a large group of people. Skype is also useful to communicate with specific parties quickly, rather than relying on cellular service in areas where not as available. Skype is less useful if the team does not use computers , tablets, smartphones, etc in daily workflow as it would rarely be used.
RemoteMeeting works in an extraordinary way to initiate meetings through videoconferences in real time sharing screen audio and video provides dynamic meetings in 3D With avatar profiles that make the experience of the participants much more enjoyable.
For team collaboration RemoteMeeting has fallen like a glove, it is a platform that allows high-level business videoconferences to be carried out with security and excellent wireless connection.
Instant messaging to anyone who we know only by name/email. Even if they're offline, they get the message in missed convos and a notification automatically goes to them via Outlook mail. All conversations are saved and accessible via Outlook.
Video and voice calls are a norm in the WFH scenario, and an average employee has around 4-5 calls a day. Skype gives notifications for upcoming meetings, allows easy scheduling via outlook calendar, and its audio/video quality [is] reasonably good compared to the amount of data it consumes.
Status availabilities - in the WFH scenario, you could be off for lunch, out of office, busy, sharing screens - and might not want to be disturbed. Skype allows you to do that, and in case you're off, ensures that you know that you have missed messages.
Screen sharing - we have to share screens at least once or twice a day with a coworker when working on some issues/features, and Skype easily lets us do that. One of the best things about Skype is that the screen can be shared without being on a video/voice call - which is of immense advantage because oftentimes, you could prefer sharing the screen, while it [is] too noisy to talk.
RemoteMeeting is a modern and high-level video conferencing solution that provides a quality service, it is a tool where meetings are not boring, so it offers positive and satisfactory results, it provides flexible and intuitive features with solutions that fit our needs. user, ease, visually pleasing interface, safety and quality.
Probably the biggest area is the video element as it has historically struggled in this area.
The need to be forced to federate with another organisation by providing yours and enabling the other organisation settings is a bit tedious but once done, allows for simple collaboration between third-parties.
Functionality wise, as it's an older product and being superseded by MS Teams, it feels as if it's run its course but was very good for what it does/did at the time.
The software is simple to install and configure. It is rather simple to explain for correct use. It is possible to profile users for the different functions offered. It is integrated quite completely with Outlook and with Active Directory security. It performs all communication functions well with one or more interlocutors and the possibility of granting control of your computer is convenient.
Very easy to use. Even though Microsoft Teams has a lot of features and integrations, as a user I feel completely comfortable on finding what I need, getting information about the app extensions and using them. It's a very comprehensive tool, intuitive design and does not make me feel tired to be using it. I am glad with the current experience.
I have only had to reach out to the Support team at Skype for Business once with an issue, and I was pleasantly surprised and encouraged by the quickness and thoroughness of their response. The wait time was short and my question was dealt with politely and clearly, so I would say the support team has it together.
Skpe for business is utilized company wide in regards to my company. Everyone not only uses it, but uses it often. It is an effective way of communicating. It also integrates very nicely with outlook and all conversation history is pushed to a folder within the outlook system. We also have it so that if someone misses a message, they are sent an email reminder saying that there is a message that went unread.
The results we have obtained with RemoteMeeting have been unparalleled, it is an online meeting solution that improves the way we share screen perfectly from anywhere because it provides collaboration tools for more efficient meetings from offering virtual backgrounds, face focus to automatically detect the face on the screen, separate video and information display for multiple monitors, simplicity security and speed is a perfect tool.
For the below reason I will always choose this app over its competitors: Better audio and video quality, Little to no disconnections or freezing when on a call/video conference Integrates well with mailbox/ calendar/ one drive, and SharePoint is easy to use
RemoteMeeting has a positive impact on my organization by offering simplified meetings that significantly increase the collaboration and productivity of my work team, offering cloud-based virtual meeting solutions that improve customer relations, reduce work time and additional costs, as well as Provide progress in projects and efficiency.
It is a video conferencing solution that improves the way we communicate with colleagues, customers, employees, partners and suppliers with a simplified experience with privacy protection, making all participants feel comfortable and safe in meetings, since we use RemoteMeeting. Work flow has increased by 15%, sales have increased and work teams develop a better relationship with each other.
We almost lost our biggest client because of the poor performance early on in our implementation...the online meetings were poor quality for audio and bandwidth refreshing
Many of the employees in our company disliked the quality so much, they started to sign up for free Cisco WebEx accounts to use instead
The majority of employees in our company lost trust in our CTO because of his decision to switch from Cisco WebEx to Skype for Business
