BlueJeans Review
Within the organization, BlueJeans Events were used primarily to support online lectures, meetings, and live streams to communicate information from events to a large group of individuals. They are an effective form of mass communication that are pre-planned and widely accessible.
- Manages large numbers well
- Prevents attendees from disrupting presenter
- Streams easily
- User interface is difficult to use on presenter side
- Attendees must be promoted to participate in discussion
- Q & A and chat features can be spammed, which makes it difficult for user and presenter interaction

BlueJeans use
We use it primarily for large company wide events
- Integrates easily with Room based systems.
- Industry standard controls.
- Easy to provision.
- Contract renewal is seemingly more painful than it needs to be.
- They seem to be chasing other vendors (Zoom) with features.
- We've brought in BlueJeans people for training - it wasn't very good - had to do our own.
- Tech support was horrific when we had issues

BlueJeans Events Review
We use BlueJeans Events as a virtual solution to meetings/town halls/all colleague/all hands call etc. We implemented the tool during the pandemic where no one could meet in person, it solved that problem for us. It is now used by the events team to support virtual events across the bank.
- Moderator controls
- Q&A feature
- Presenter views
- Would like the moderator to be able to re-order the presenters on the line by speaking order
- Would like to be able to adjust controls after event is live, like add or remove Q&A

- Video experience is awesome
- Ongoing meeting, easy to use
- Love the sound
- Dolby Voice
- Less battery consuming
- Easier way to change background

I use BlueJeans in the telehealth platform, in counseling, and in mental health therapy. I am required to use a HIPAA-compliant video platform that will encrypt the two-way synchronous interaction for my practice. The platform must have the capability to do a screen share and quality audio conferencing.
- Video
- Audio
- Screen share
- remote control capability
- ability to use video filtering with less memory capacity PC's
- Waiting room capability sometimes doesn't work

Mainly for business meetings and investigatory interviews when I was at WDW. Currently for Not for Profit Organizations for business meetings and other events.
- Love the breakout rooms.
- Allows sharing of documents.
- Allows those who don't have an account to still join with an account holder.
- Easy download of the App.
- I cannot think of anything at this time.
October 23, 2022
What I'm thinking!
We use it for our in-house group meetings and 1:1 meetings. We do so because of the extra security. So far, I have enjoyed the experience, and my employees also find it easy to use. We wouldn't mind some new features in the chat, but other than that, it has done well.
- Easy Login.
- Secure
- Ease of use.
- Chat Feature.
- Google Calendar Integration.
- Video Storage.

Great program, bad branding.
We use BlueJeans for our virtual meetings. I have meetings with my team of six people. We invite suppliers to join us as well. BlueJeans makes it easy for everyone to attend a meeting if they aren't feeling well or can't get to an in-person meeting.
- Audio quality.
- Visual quality.
- I don't have any as I haven't had any issues with the program.

Amazing call setup!
BlueJeans has been a great help to our company, especially during the past two years when we were facing the peak of the pandemic and lockdown. The app helped us stay efficient and on top of our tasks by letting us communicate with each other when we were working from home. The best feature was the recording tool as it allowed me to refer back when I felt the need to look for certain information during the call.
- Easy to use
- Seamless experience on computer and the phone
- Great call quality
- Needs more promotion - lack of awareness of the product
- Fix the error with notifications
- Better connectivity

Quick, Easy to Use and collaborative
I used BlueJeans as a student at Georgia Tech. I used it for my classes, and as a teaching assistant to teach students. It's a seamless video conferencing app that offers great easy-to-use features like a whiteboard and break-out rooms. It could be used for casual fun calls to business meetings.
- It is very easy to create and switch from one breakout room to another.
- The whiteboard feature makes virtual collaboration seamless.
- I have used multiple software at the same time and the audio and video quality of Bluejeans has been the best.
- Some form of indication when someone joins or drops a call, like a beep.
- If someone is using the browser and not the app, it's not that great.
- The chat feature could be improved.

BlueJeans Events has been great for my college classes!
We use BlueJeans Events to livestream classes/meetings/presentations with more than 200 attendees. Especially during the pandemic, BlueJeans has in general been a huge help in conducting online classes. BlueJeans Events is most applicable for large classes, for which more than 200 students may be attending. BlueJeans Events does a perfect job of facilitating an easy manner for a teacher/professor to present their material to a large audience of students while maintaining the integrity of normal in-person classroom instruction.
- Manage large numbers of attendees. (>200)
- Facilitates active Q&A during a presentation!
- Allows for moderators to interact with attendees through Q&A and polls!
- Fosters live interaction between presenters and attendees.
- Slightly difficult to further engage attendees beyond Q&A and polls. The steps to promote an attendee to presenter/moderator can be a bit tedious and time-consuming if an attendee wants to speak, respond, or ask a question in live time.
- It would be awesome for direct messaging (private messaging to other attendees) to be possible with BlueJeans Events, as is possible with normal BlueJeans calls.
- It would be great to have even more viewing options in the mobile application version of BlueJeans events, similar to the many varying call viewing options that exist for the desktop application.

BlueJeans for tech internships
As an intern, I used BlueJeans Events to attend group meetings, individual meetings with my manager, facilitate workshops and conduct user interviews. BlueJeans Events allowed me to complete my work effectively as well as gain insights from users through moderated interviews and usability testing sessions
- Conduct user interviews
- Attend group meetings
- Attend 1:1 meetings with my manager
- Attend events and webinars
- Chat notifications
- Video and audio quality
- Screen sharing and host settings

Fantastic for large-scale, information-driven events with Q&A
We use BlueJeans Events for a multitude of webinars for students, staff, and faculty at the University of Pennsylvania. The interface is easy to use and has some great features, like the dedicated Q&A box that allows your audience to submit questions "on-air" to be answered live on camera, or by another participant via text. We hold a lot of informational webinars that require a lot of Q&A, so this is a great feature for us when we need to manage a large number of attendees and address their questions in an organized manner. The Moderator interface is great as well as it provides a sort of virtual "backstage" area where presenters and moderators can communicate in the background before and during the event as situations and questions arise.
- Organizing / Separating presenters and moderators from attendees via an interface, so that attendees do not see "backstage" issues
- Q&A feature is very organized and easy to use, especially for events with a high volume of audience questions
- Easy to share files and other media directly in the app
- A better way to alert moderators/presenters that someone backstage is trying to communicate with them.
- The chats do not scroll automatically as more people chat, so it can make it difficult to see if someone has sent a new communication to the chat
- Emojis!!

Great to use if you have the app!
I use BlueJeans Events in hosting meetings and educational training programs.
- Allows to break into rooms.
- Creates meeting room for just the hosts of the event.
- Offers Q/A options for panels to answer.
- Ease of access for people outside the organization.

BlueJeans is great for large groups & easily recorded
We chose to use BlueJeans to host our webinars, internal meetings, and training sessions. We made this move from Google Meet so we could host larger meetings, chat functions, and the ability to record the meetings. We are able to post polls, Q&A, and multiple chats. You can set up attendees as regular attendees, presenters, and moderators.
- Ability to record meetings and easily download recording
- Host moderator chat
- Screen Share
- The ability to change attendees role without logging out
- More clarification on roles (moderator, presenter & attendee)
- Ability to see others video while presenting a screen share
- Visual appearance of login page and platform

BlueJeans for college classrooms
I use BlueJeans to stream online educational content. I stream online workshops and lectures, facilitate conversations for members via breakout sessions, and save recordings to be uploaded for asynchronous use. BlueJeans allows students to attend workshops and lectures virtually, which is important given the pandemic.
- Stream online content
- Save and download recorded meetings for future review
- Facilitate user engagement through chat and breakout sessions
- I often do not see new chat messages while I am sharing my screen
- Sometimes the recordings take a long time to upload
- Video quality is reduced and at times laggy

BlueJeans Events in Education
We used BlueJeans events to host lecture and review sessions. The business problem it addresses is how to keep 200+ students engaged on a daily basis in the era of online learning. We utilized events 3-4 times per week and had 200-250 attendees at a time.
- Scheduling
- Screen Sharing
- Moderator Tools
- Q&A
- Polls
- Latency
- Video Quality (sometimes)
- Audio Quality if multiple people are talking or unmuted

Easy-to-use, meets my business needs, helps me stay connected!
This is our company's selected video conferencing tool. It's used by most employees and is looked up on favorably in terms of ease of use and voice clarity. It enables us to stay connected during these times when we are not able to meet face-to-face.
- Easy to use.
- Easy to share mtg links.
- Sound quality.
- Feels like we are in the same room.
- Enhanced camera quality/settings (like Zoom).

Easy to use for first-timers
BlueJeans Events was used for our continuous 36-hour virtual event. We wanted to give our audience a different experience and the platform work for what we planned. There were a few hiccups along the way but we were able to rectify each situation immediately with the assistance of customer support and the audience did not have issues.
- Loading videos.
- Adding audience as presenters to ask questions directly.
- Sharing platform with team.
- Seamless joining from audience
- Need a backstage.
- Add timer for presenters.
- Ability for one member to load videos for entire team use.

Go Bluejeans Events, or Go Home!
I use BlueJeans Events to do students' webinars, workshops, and presentations with larger groups. With a lot of events and programs going online due to COVID, I found BlueJeans Events and the features very helpful and easy for my students to navigate. The product solves a lot of our virtual presentation problems and the scope of my work is mainly with students, faculty, and staff members.
- Provide plenty of options to share content to users
- The moderator options for BlueJeans Events is very nice
- The presenter/speaker views are nice too.
- One improvement is the interface. Interface sometimes is hard to navigate with a lot of people. Text and colors are also bland.
- Functionality could be better, especially with the chat and messaging features.
- More customization options should be offered.
