My company implemented FoxDen in an effort to replace Skype for Business for video and audio conferencing. We use it both for one on one meetings as well as in our video conferencing room. FoxDen is implemented across our entire organization, spanning across several countries. Our remote workers (working from home) also use FoxDen. It's meant to enhance our collaboration and communication as well as allow us to see one another face-to-face for meetings even if we are not physically present.
- Easy to join meetings
- Audio is fairly reliable
- Moderately easy to host meetings

- Increased the length of our meetings due to copious amounts of time spent trying to fix the video and screen sharing.
- Added frustration for everyone who attempted to use it.
- Ultimately resulted in a lot of money lost on video equipment that everyone stopped using in favor of voice-only conferencing due to the faulty video.
I believe they selected FoxDen because we use ReadyTalk for voice conferencing and FoxDen represented a cost savings compared to our previous Skype for Business investment. However, in the end, most of our company has abandoned ever using FoxDen and, instead, still uses all of the products listed above (Skype for Business, Google Hangouts, Slack) or just plain ReadyTalk voice conferencing.
