Pros

  • Join.me has provided us many features that made it possible for us to communicate.
  • Another plus point is its staff which is pretty good ‘professional and highly supportive and is always there for help.
  • We can also connect with people outside our region and with its advanced functionality we have found it as the best audio conference software than any other software of its type.
  • it has made our audio meeting experience very effective.

Cons

  • There should be a complete guide to understand its features before installation because if one feature will be missed then, we can’t get them working properly.
  • Furthermore, there should be high-quality internet for getting its function and it won’t work without good network coverage.
  • I think its interface is a little hard for beginners and is not that user friendly.

Return on Investment

  • Our business relations are up to the mark and we are away from the meeting rooms.
  • We have found it as a very tough software to use but with time we learned how to use it well. We had to brainstorm to understand its working.
  • Connecting with our colleagues has become so easy and simple with join.me.
