Occasionally we have faced that Bluejeans can be sluggish and jerky, especially when there are many attendees in the meeting. this should be improved as it is used on regular basis and this might be challenging to communicate clearly.
Not all the popular productivity tools are integrated with it, the developer should work on its integration scope,now it is challenging to collaborate with other platforms for specific tasks.
There should be improvement in the mobile App, as I have experienced uncertain crashes and it is not user friendly as compared to desktop version.
