GlobalMeet as a service
GlobalMeet is used by our entire organization to facilitate virtual meetings and conference calls. We use this product for training purposes through uploading PowerPoints or by using the screen share feature to demonstrate a live concept. When a web conference is not necessary we use the voice-only feature to provide a place to call in.
- Something that GlobalMeet does well is distributing a meeting to users. The system integrates well with our Outlook system and allows easy meeting distributions.
- GlobalMeet is good at providing an easy way to record web meetings. The feature works well and is easy to download after.
- GlobalMeet as a system seems to be lacking in a few areas. Particularly, I wish there was a better way to track meeting attendees. There is an email that goes out after the meeting of the attendees, but often this list is incomplete, or is not an accurate reflection of the attendees.
- GlobalMeet often does not work when we need it to. Even though I have the app installed on my computer, whenever I try to pull up a meeting it works only half the time. Other times it will go straight to the web version even though I have the app.
- GlobalMeet is not very user-friendly. It is clunky, and does not make the life of the presenter or "host" easier.

- GlobalMeet has saved our organization time and money so that we do not have to travel to our outlying locations to perform training. The ROI has mostly been felt in cost savings related to travel.
- Cisco WebEx Teams (formerly Cisco Spark)
WebEx seems to be a better product than GlobalMeet from a user functionality standpoint and a hosting standpoint. It is more intuitive, and I have never had a technical issue when using WebEx.
The business functions represented by GlobalMeet usage are: administrative assistants, trainers, managers, insurance reps, operations, and executives. These users use the webinar function to host trainings, meetings for remote workers, and provide details for new initiatives that are being rolled out. GlbalMeet is used primarily to connect our geographically dispersed work force.
5
Generally all that is needed for in-house support of GlobalMeet is someone to handle licensing and troubleshoot installation issues. GlobalMeet has a robust customer service function that can be used for any technical issues that are experienced while using the platform. I have had issues in the past where I contact the call-in number and have been able to resolve my issues relatively quickly.

GlobalMeet is perfect conference call platform for small business
GlobalMeet is the platform used by our organization for conference calls with our board of directors and regional representatives. Our organization is a small non-profit, but all members use the software for any conference call needs. The ability to share the dial-in information with participants and use any phone makes it possible for the software to be used anywhere.
- Easy to use system for business conference calls
- Recording feature useful to playback information from the meeting
- Accessibility of domestic and international call in numbers make it possible for participants to call in no matter where they are traveling or located.
- Recording available for 90 days

- Makes it possible to save travel costs for meeting needs
- Zoom
Our small non-profit organization appreciates the ease of use of the platform for conference call needs. Other platforms can be much more complicated for users unfamiliar with conference call technology. We use it several times a month for committee meetings, regional rep check ins, and meetings with our board of directors.
10
The business functions of our users include but are not limited to special event committees several times a year, board of directors, regional representatives, as well as the rest of our fulltime and part time office staff. Our office staff includes our president, data coordinator, communications coordinator, development director, executive assistant, etc.

- Product Usability
For our small non profit organization, the ability for multiple participants being able to call in without too much difficulty is key. The cost is comparable to other conference call platforms available for small business, but we appreciate the ease of use of GlobalMeet when meeting participants are located in multiple geographical locations.
Possibly look at updates and extra tools available and help desk options for users unfamiliar with the product. I would appreciate a platform that allowed for cloud storage of meeting recordings instead of a platform that deletes the content after 30 days and/or has an option to purchase a DVD.

GlobalMeet is an excellent, efficient collaboration tool
GlobalMeet is the only IT-approved and authorized web conferencing software at my organization. We use it for internal and external meetings. GlobalMeet helps us address connecting with our internal employees. We're a global company and in the headquarters office, less than one percent of all employees work here, so it's critical that we use this solution to be able to connect and share ideas and content anywhere and everywhere.
- the connect-me function is outstanding! I never have to dial into a conference call.
- It works as soon as it loads. As the company standard, we're not waiting to download plugins or anything else in order to get going.
- The share a file option is great for collaboration
- The option to take over screen sharing is kind of slow. That could be a bit quicker
- The whiteboard could be a little nicer. Reminds me of Paint on old computers.
- I wish it were easier to gather your recorded meetings. I don't like having to login and wait for a download.

- I'm not responsible for the budget in this area, so I'm not sure how to answer ROI.
- I'm sure that it has reduced the need for travel because we can collaborate easily.
We have been using GlobalMeet exclusively since I started nearly five years ago. Sometimes others might use WebEx, which seems like it takes forever to load and there's always something to download. I've used join.me on occasion, but our IT department has unblocked it certain locations and blocked it at others, so it's uncertain whether or not that (less robust) tool is available when we need it.

All functions - Sales, marketing, communications, finance, IT
I'm not sure...I've never used in-house support for this system.
- reduce amount of travel associated with global teams
- have a standard software that's easy to use
- Allowing power users to have their own URLs and consistent conferencing numbers
- I don't think we've been outside the box on this one.
- more video conferencing - connections to our polycom system

Easy and Friendly to Use
GlobalMeet is being used in our company since we are located across the United States. This product allows us to meet on a regular basis, share screens to do trainings and provides recordings of the meetings for those who could not attend. GlobalMeet is used to update staff as well as train staff on new processes and procedures thru screen sharing.
- GlobalMeet is a great way for sharing screens when you are not able to meet in person.
- GlobalMeet has a chat system so that questions can be answered while you are in the meeting.
- When lots of people are on GlobalMeet is tends to disconnect or people have a hard time getting on.
- Sometimes when you are not on a hardwire internet source, the participant has a hard time connecting.

- There is an increased employee efficiency with the employees able to get trainings online instead of heading to corporate for a training.
Skype for Business just allows us to share screens and chat. There isn't a recording to see what happened throughout the meeting and isn't as thorough as GlobalMeet in its capabilities.

Change management was minimal
- There were no significant issues encountered during the implementation phase.
- Self-taught
GlobalMeet is very easy to pick up and learn on your own and to explore various different avenues.
Just making sure that you are hardwired into GlobalMeet if you are conferencing from the computer.
Some - we have done small customizations to the interface
Yes we have it customized some so that it easy to access for our work. It was super easy to change things around.
No - we have not done any custom code
There is nothing more on the customization that I have at this time.
We were having an issue with connectivity when the whole company was on during a meeting. They were able to help use resolve this issue in a timely manner and we were back up and running in our meeting in no time.
- The chart function
- Screen sharing
- The login via your phone or on the computer is a little more cumbersome.

I have not used this feature yet but I am looking forward to using it in the near future.
