BlueJeans is utilized across our company globally.
  • Works particularly well from a stability perspective
  • Integration with Outlook meetings
  • Nil from my requirements
I find it useful whether I'm in the office or out on the road. It works well hardwired, wifi, or mobile.

It is used across the whole organization. I use it to demonstrate online products and provide training in the online products.
  • Share Screen is great for training and demonstrating
  • Chat is great for answering questions
  • Video conferencing
  • Setting up meetings was ok, but it could maybe have a look at better functionality. It took a bit of time to work it out.
For me, demonstrations and trainings are made easier by the product.

The whole organization uses BlueJeans, and we have it integrated with Outlook, so it's pretty easy to set up meetings with the link for the call, we use it as the primary tool to have meetings with teams all over the globe and the use is daily. As we have cross-functional teams located in different cities across the world, have ease of communication is pretty important, and BlueJeans helps with that a lot.
  • Easily set up calls with access from inside and outside the company.
  • Share the screen for presentation, making it possible to share only one app and hiding the others (for privacy) or selecting which screens you want to share (if using multiple screens).
  • Meeting recording is also available and is a valuable function for important and long meetings, to review the minutes taken for future reports.
  • Connection sometimes lags when having too many attendants - for example, over 15-20.
  • If BlueJeans could offer any mic filter software that would be great, sometimes people that connect have terrible mics that can every noise that's around and makes the meeting a lousy experience. Of course, the equipment can be changed, but a function to have a better noise filter within the software would be excellent.
  • Easier connection for people outside the company, which don't have the app installed. Sometimes it is confusing for suppliers that are not used to the app and have to connect.
Bluejeans is suitable for every enterprise meeting with teams in different places. It makes easy to connect, to talk through audio and text, also share video showing the team and sharing the screens, enabling the user to select specifically what he wants to share and hide everything else, which is very important for privacy and especially in a work environment.

Toptal has been using BlueJeans for a while now as its primary tool for its hiring process. As a design screener in the design vertical of the company, I'm using BlueJeans as the primary way of contacting and interviewing candidates all over the world, making use of all functionalities available.
  • Seamless integration with Google Calendar.
  • Recording function and the fact that there's verbal feedback when the recording has started.
  • Friendly user interface.
  • Constantly experiencing audio issues, having to move to different tools to keep the meetings going on.
I believe that BlueJeans is suited for any scenario involving meetings, presentations, conferences, interviews, or any other form of connection being required with people located in different places. Although due to its constant issues with audio - particularly not experienced with any other competitor in the market - it's hard to trust BlueJeans in the first place.

We use BlueJeans at Farfetch throughout the whole company. I work with colleagues distributed around the world, and communicating with them is essential. This is where BlueJeans comes into place. I have used other tools in the past, but they are not as good as BlueJeans. The integration with the browser works very nicely, and makes my life very easy!
  • Integration with Chrome browser
  • Integration with GSuite
  • Set up a meeting ID with a single click
  • Simplicity
  • BlueJeans uses a lot of battery when it's on, so it would be nice to have a slightly lighter version
Well suited in distributed companies (in more than one country), probably not needed as much otherwise.

My department uses BlueJeans, and I don't know if the entire organization uses it. The screening team uses it to conduct interviews with prospective consultants.
  • The video and sound quality is excellent.
  • The product does not "time out" after a certain duration.
  • I wish BlueJeans offered an option to just dial in by phone rather than using computer video and audio. If it did, I would probably use it for most of my conference calls rather than using Google Hangouts.
BlueJeans is a wonderful choice for video conferences. I would like to use it for all of my conference calls, but without the automated phone conferencing feature, I find Google Hangouts and Microsoft Teams the default options.

It is used throughout the whole company, for management meetings, trainings, and follow-up calls among different offices around the globe.
  • Audio quality is great
  • The ability to better control the audience
  • The ability to use Rooms meetings systems
  • Stability
  • The need to authenticate to the web bothers me
It's great for video calls from different offices.
The app for my cell phone is really good, I can have calls, see screen shares and control the audience.
There's no need to type codes and telephone numbers with the app, which is also a plus.

Sometimes stability is not the best.

It's being used internally with colleagues and externally with customers and partners, nationally and internationally.
  • Stability of connection.
  • Good app on mobile phone.
  • Easy to connect directly.
  • Setting up a conference call.
  • Adding email addresses to the conference call while setting it up (why isn't it possible to "cut and paste"?).
For conference calls with multiple participants.

BlueJeans is used as the video conferencing tool of choice by many teams in my department. I believe the company has an enterprise license, which gives us a certain amount of storage space for recorded calls and meetings. My team does our daily standup meeting each morning on BlueJeans, as well as any other meetings throughout the day. We have several team members who work remotely, so every single meeting is conducted on BlueJeans by default.
  • Fast start-up time.
  • Lightweight on resources.
  • Intuitive UI.
  • I would love to see more features around remote screen control/drawing while sharing a screen.
  • When viewing a screen share full-screen, the video pops up in a separate window and there's no way to close it, even if I don't want to see it.
  • It could be easier to re-join frequently-attended meetings, instead of needing to find the link each time.
It doesn't feel as "heavy" as some other video conferencing tools I have used, which is a huge plus. For collaborating over a screen share and remotely drawing on the other person's screen or typing, there are other tools that put more emphasis on those features that I prefer for those tasks.

The whole organization uses BlueJeans for video conferencing and meeting recording. I use it as a backup for in-person lectures for days where classes are canceled. I record a meeting of just myself and send a link to students. I also use it to host remote office hours for struggling students.
  • Recording meetings
  • Screen sharing
  • Sharing recordings with other users using the could
  • Easy to use interface. It is very intuitive and much better than the competition I've seen (Century Link and Adobe Connect are much more difficult to learn)
  • I don't want to download the plugin. It's much easier to use the browser version and takes less time to load the meeting. Consider making that option the default and not having a separate plugin that loads a new BlueJeans application. I find that unnecessary
  • When in screen share, I would like a pointer/highlighter function. I currently rely on my mouse pointer but that can't highlight or draw text as far as I can tell
Well suited for office hours, remote sessions, and for online lectures to facilitate e-learning. Less relevant for corporate meetings that should be held in person. I find that sometimes organizations use it as a crutch thinking that having 100+ people on a call will facilitate engagement but this would be better done as an in-person meeting for folks to attend.

BlueJeans is being used in our new Cloud Services division. I was looking for something a little less intrusive resource-wise and was efficient and easily manageable. BlueJeans met all of my needs at a very attractive cost while being fairly faster than the competitors I assessed. Due to my positive experience with BlueJeans, I also suggest it quite often to our customers and partners. I have received a lot of positive feedback from others joining the meetings that I host with BlueJeans, which says a lot for BlueJeans and gives an additional positive view of my group from our customers and partners.
  • Attractive cost.
  • Very fast to start a meeting and join a meeting.
  • Great management interface that is very easy to use.
  • A little more name recognition.
  • The name BlueJeans is a bit odd.
BlueJeans is great for anyone looking to be able to quickly create and join meetings with a small footprint on their hardware. BlueJeans also scales well for larger meetings with 30 to 50 people which some of their competitors have an issue with. Management is also accomplished via a very easy to use web interface.

All employees can have a BlueJeans account, so across the whole organization. It helps to hold virtual meetings as we are a global business.
  • Ease of use
  • Reliability
  • Easy to swap users/presenters
  • Recording facility often stops working mid-way through.
  • Sometimes it just doesn't load up.
  • It doesn't like working on some types of screens, I.E. plasma screens sometimes have issues.
Good for audio and visual meetings. Less suitable for phonecalls, we tend to use conferencing facilities for that. Good for presentations and can use internal mic or external AV. Good when holding meetings with people in different countries or when people can't be there in person. The recording feature is also useful.

We use BlueJeans for all of our employees to connect via audio and video when collaborating among team members and across the organization. It brings remote people together and allows for people to easily connect and share ideas. BlueJeans is easy to setup and the stability and ease of use connection is very good.
  • Ease of connection for everyone to attend meetings.
  • The audio quality is very good.
  • The video feed and the ability to share computer screens are extremely helpful.
  • We have audio feedback issue at times when we use conference room audio rather than an individual's laptop.
  • When there is a chat entry maybe have the icon blink or somehow make it more apparent.
  • Audio still has issues when more than one person talks at the same time.
When I use BlueJeans I rarely have any issues. It is great when communicating with my team overseas as well as people on different floors of the same building. It handles a large number of people and locations without any problems. There is a delay in the video, so it may not be best for standup presentations and audience interaction. I mostly use it for screen sharing and thus real-time response is not always necessary.

All of our Marketing team uses BlueJeans for phone & video conferences with our partners (local distributors of Pernod Ricard) in the MENA region and with other companies within the Pernod Ricard organisation (mainly brand companies located in other countries). It limits the necessity of travelling and helps (in case of video conferences) to have more human relations.
  • Flexibility to accept connections from different tools (PC, mobile, etc.)
  • Rather intuitive and user friendly application
  • Integration with Outlook calendar
  • Sometimes it's difficult to use when there are more than 2 participants and all are using different ways of connection/sharing the screen
It suits our need for video/audio conferences ver well when only two locations are involved. Meetings up to 2 hours can be held via BlueJeans. Longer than that is not efficient.

BlueJeans across regions

We use it for video conference calls across the Australasian region by the entire organisation. We have offices across several countries and time zones, hence it becomes very easy to use and schedule meetings by linking into Outlook and saving the correct time zone for each person that is invited to the meeting.
  • Mobile phone compatible
  • Works in conjunction with Outlook
  • Works well across time zones
  • When meetings are cancelled, it can still sometimes still appear in Outlook, so there needs to be a better way for them to talk to each other.
BlueJeans is well suited to hosting meetings across regions and with multiple parties. It can be accessed by people on the move via their mobile/cell phone, so you don't have to be at your computer or laptop, or in an office meeting room as long as you have the app installed on your device.

BJN is used across our organization and our clients also use it. We suggest them to abandon Goto, M-soft Team and use BlueJeans for the collaboration purpose. We usually have 8-10 meetings per day and average people joining the meeting are 6. Client team is happy to have video, screen share and audio at one place for the project purpose.
  • Screenshare with easy control.
  • Teleconference with single link.
  • Kicking out unwanted teammates.
  • Screen share controls are limited, admin should decide who can share.
  • The BJN Plugin is blocked for some clients due to firewall issues.
  • Chat should have an attachment option too.
There is no way BJN can not be used for collaboration. Personal and work both suits well. BJN will always help the team to collaborate at most. You can easily join, share, and contribute hassle-free. For friends and family, this is a good way to communicate and connect with each other.

We use BlueJeans to coordinate meetings with internal and external teams to communicate face-to-face. We also use BlueJeans to schedule and coordinate interviews with possible candidates that may be out of state. Bluejeans is helpful because it allows us to interact with talent that would normally not apply due to their current logistics, and also gives us an ability to review the candidate's responses and share their interviews with their potential team and managers to identify who the best fit for the team is. Bluejeans also helps because there is no distortion in the visual content and we normally don’t have problems with connecting online.
  • Notes between participants
  • Video conferencing
  • Audio conferencing
  • Sharing documents
  • Uploading documents for review
  • Webinar feature
  • Uploading software to print out responses from participants.
  • Adding graphs and charts that identify time and participation by participants.
  • Best practices from users.
  • Interviews
  • Meetings
  • Business team work sessions
  • Staff meeting inclusion

It’s the primary platform for video communication our organization uses. This is frequently used by my research team, we use it with partners across the country as well as locally.
  • Screen share
  • Video
  • Personalized Link
  • Recording available immediately
  • Preset options for flexible use of links (i.e moderator doesn’t have to be in-call).
  • Chat space is only 1:1 or all. We need options to create flexible groups.
  • No chat rooms.
  • Live whiteboard feels inaccessible.
BlueJeans is best for a meeting where the discussion is one speaker at a time.

  • BlueJeans is used across the company.
  • Especially by me and my Global team and by all the contractors that work with us to build new projects. We built the project in at least 15 countries: North & Central (USA and Mexico) America, South America (Brasil, Chile, Colombia, Peru) Europe (Italy, Spain, Greek), Africa(Morocco, Zambia, SouthAfrica), Australia and India, Australia).
  • Each Project Team uses BJ, mainly locally but even globally because a lot of team members are located in different countries. The main issue is: when you are doing a call with persons from the company's offices, the quality of the connection is not good (or voice or video) and we are obliged to use to separate connection at the same time (one using the telephone and another one using a computer). If we use the connection staying at home the call quality of the call is good. Even the quality of the connection of the contractors is good. This issue started, 6 months ago. My ICT colleagues are still finding the solution.
  • It uses a low band system that allows connecting people from the site who don't have good bandwidth (construction site, train, etc).
  • It's easy to use. When you have a lot of new contractors each year is an important point.
  • The director can mute people.
  • It is included in the description of my open issue.
  1. When we have to do a call with a contractor (external person).
  2. When we have to do a call with colleagues for the open issue already described. This issue didn't exist 6 months ago.

Blue Jeans is used throughout the company to connect staff within many offices spread across 3 states. It is an effective meeting tool.
  • Able to conduct face to face meetings.
  • Able to share presentations at the meetings.
  • Easy to schedule a BlueJeans meeting.
  • Some noise (reverberating echo) issues when meeting attendees sign up for BlueJeans individually when BlueJeans is running on the meeting room's telephone.
  • It is not easy to activate BlueJeans on the go - you need to remember the meeting ID.
Most suited - When the participants on-site physically do not activate their individual BlueJeans account but rely on the meeting room's login. Less appropriate - When any of the participants are on the move (e.g. driving/in a car). The sound quality is not very good.

BlueJeans is used within the company for virtual meetings person-to-person as well as group-to-group, and integrated with Outlook and room resources for very simple creation of virtual meetings. Initially piloted by the IT department, this is now company-wide for all users as the primary video conferencing tool. It will be extended shortly to included specific hardware in addition to PC-based connections.
  • Sceen-sharing, Powerpoint.
  • Multi-user, multi-screen conferencing.
  • Allowing external users to connect to internal conferencing.
  • Looking forward to updates to fix occasional audio degradation.
Multiple desk-to-desk uses PC equipment seemlessly.
