Likelihood to Recommend In my experience, Sendspark is particularly well-suited for sales and marketing professionals who need to create and send personalized videos at scale. The platform makes it easy to quickly record and share videos, which can be a great way to stand out in a crowded market and provide a more engaging and personal experience for clients. Additionally, the branding and marketing features of Sendspark are handy for maintaining a consistent and professional image. On the other hand, I think Sendspark may be less appropriate for organizations that require more robust collaboration and video editing features. The platform is designed for simplicity and speed, so it may not be the best choice for users who need more advanced editing tools or the ability to work on videos with multiple users simultaneously. Additionally, the limited customization options for video themes may not be suitable for users who need more flexibility in terms of design and layout. Other video recording and sharing platforms may be a better fit in these cases.
Read full review I think Zoom runs circles around Teams! I just wish starting meetings was easier - anyone with a link should be able to start the meeting the way you can in Teams. It would also be great to be able to see participants when you are sharing your screen.
Read full review Pros Ease of use - one click to record & one click to copy the thumbnail/URL. Video quality is consistently high. CTA implementation through templates is a huge time saver. Clean interface and virtually no learning curve. Works well across platforms, including mobile. Read full review I love how easy it is to set the focus on the presenter. It is annoying when people don't spotlight themselves as a presenter, so you get to see the whole gallery of attendees in smaller, two-inch windows. I like the capability of having break-out rooms. Even though I don't use them very often, it is nice to have them available if the right situation presents itself for smaller group chats. The recording quality is better than I have experienced with other products (Microsoft Teams, WebEx, etc.), and the fact that it is already an MP4, so I don't have to convert it for publishing on our intranet is huge to me. Read full review Cons I would love a PWA app so that there's a quick means to connect on-the-go. Increased Integration Usage - I need to add Sendspark to my new CRM platform and currently cannot do so. Lack of personalized green screen functionality - This feature is a must and hopefully there will be updates in the future. Read full review Sharing zoom complete information is not visible on the screen, and also a bit is confusing minimizing and maximizing. Every time someone enters the chat, a chat box appears on my screen, and some features are missing from this version. Automatic conference connection based on a schedule isn't an option, and neither is enhanced security measures. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Because with such a contribution it is possible to reach customers much better than with many other expensive tools. It is comparatively cheaper to do marketing with emails. So you should make your email campaigns as effective as possible. What really works with Sendspark. I think Sendspark will implement many more things. Which is why I am currently convinced to continue using Sendspark.
Read full review We're sticking with Zoom for the foreseeable future--given its compelling feature set, ease of use, and advanced technology, there's just no other competition to be excited about. Plus it's a Gartner-recognized industry leader, so it's a rather easy choice.
Read full review Usability Zoom is made for the non tech office. It has features that can be made to do what you need to run things on a day to day basis. Immediately we we able to get meetings going with remote employees. The ability to be able to add smartphone connected people was a big plus. Zoom met our needs at the time.
Read full review Reliability and Availability Acutally we didnt have had any problems so far. Everything works since we use it. The Servers are fast, and creating videos is a breeze. The Dashboard works properly and we can work very Smooth with Sendspark so far.
Read full review There have been less than a handful of outages during our two years with Zoom, and whenever there was one, an email informing us of the outage went out immediately, and they had the issue resolved shortly thereafter.
Read full review Performance Support is very fast. I actually get Support between 8-24 Hours which is Important for us. The website tend to slow down sometimes, but will not affect the overall usage. I think they have a good Server Plan, which runs smooth. Until now we didnt had any serious problems with saving our Video Files or Uploading.
Read full review Zoom has among the best performance of any video conference platform, as I've mentioned several times. Besides that, their Chat platform works great, and their back end always runs smooth. It's unfortunate that reporting can now only be done by one month at a time, but nonetheless, it only takes a second to run any kind of Zoom report, whether it's an attendee report, Poll results, a user report, a list of meetings from the past month, etc.
Read full review Support Rating As I've written before, Zoom makes us feel like we matter and that we're a client rather than a customer. They want us to succeed and they put in the time to make sure that we do. I feel like they're more of a business partner rather than simply a vendor or supplier. They spent a lot of time onboarding with us, giving us demos, helping us get set up, and then giving us follow-up to be sure it's going well.
Read full review Implementation Rating If you receive any pushback from higher ups, point to any of the various positive reviews like this one. Or show Zoom's excellent Gartner report, or articles describing Zoom's partnership with Sequoia capital. It's not difficult to show how Zoom is a trustworthy industry leader with best-in-class technology.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Loom provides all basic features of screen recording software but because they are established now, they sometimes fail to work on customer feedback while Sendspark is always innovative e.g one of the life-saving features is a link to share with customers to record their testimonials which other software are not doing.
Read full review Zoom cannot be beaten for ubiquity - 100% of my clients and prospective clients are already familiar with Zoom. This is the #1 reason why I use Zoom. Additionally, Zoom integrates with AcuityScheduling, saving me a lot of time in creating meetings and adding them to the calendar. Zoom is disappointing in terms of video quality, interactivity features, and privacy. In cases where I need to use the recording of webinars for digital products, I will always use
Crowdcast , and in cases where privacy is essential, I will use JitsiMeet.
Read full review Contract Terms and Pricing Model The billing and price model is really fair for so many functions that they offer, our remote work requires each of the features that Zoom offers, so accepting payment for a tool like this is the least we can do. I like that billing arrives on time and that they offer opportunities and payment times.
Read full review Scalability I think there is a lot of space for scaling. But for a Company like us there is plenty enough of capabilites to use Sendspark without any lack of performance issues. Maybe Sendspark could be limited for very Big Companys. But since they are a Startup, maybe they will grow and dive us to a better overall experience.
Read full review Because the Basic licenses are completely free, and because it's very easy to configure and install Zoom, and because anyone can join Zoom from a link without needing an account, scaling is a
Breeze . There are absolutely no roadblocks. My company keeps adding more Zoom Pro license every week since it's so in demand. We were able to convert users from several different platforms onto Zoom with no trouble at all.
Read full review Professional Services Zoom is perfect for our business. We use it to video chat with prospective clients. The name recognition alone gives us credibility and it is very easy to screen share and send content out.
Read full review Return on Investment A member of my sales team went 10 for 10 on receiving replies from outreach prospects when leading with a Sendspark video message. Received a PO for $109K on the last day of the quarter after messaging a customer with a polite and earnest Sendspark video to get the PO that day. Supported a team member closing a sale by creating a Sendspark demo/explanation video of "this is how it would work" for the owner of a prospect company. Read full review It enables me to send and receive messages from my team members during video calls, handling online presentations. With the ability to quickly stop, mute, and even receive notifications when someone enters or exits the meeting room, I'm never obligated to show up while making a call. It is possible to record online meetings for future reference and more effective customer service. As we dealt with a lockdown, Zoom helped our business run smoothly. Read full review ScreenShots
