We use Lifesize Video Conferencing for player interviews and meetings while one group is at one game and another group is covering a different game. With player interviews, it helps us record dialogue and easily pull a quote to post to our social media page. Though we use it on a small scale, Lifesize Video Conferencing helps collaborate our work together; this is essential when you have a representative at 17 different high school football games each Friday night.,Encrypted Communications: Competing against other newspapers and stations is tough. Lifesize Video Conferencing helps us keep our content original and encrypted.
Multiple Screen Sharing: Before, our preferred method of contact was a text message or a FaceTime call. This program allows us to share the same video chat with multiple sources. We've streamed interviews across 4 different games and given live in-game updates - that's something our competitors can never touch us with.
Sharable Content: Our meetings and interviews can be recorded and shared amongst our other team members or with the public through social media.,IT Support: Set up and customer service wasn't the easiest to deal with. After finally getting through the initial setup, everything else was smooth sailing.
Marketing Approach: It's not meant for everyone. We were simply sold a piece of hardware which was a risk but ultimately it met our business needs. Make sure that it fits your brand for what you're attempting to accomplish.,8,Our return investment is displayed in our weekly exposure. We started our company around 4 years ago, and only now because of this product are we getting the maximum amount of exposure that we assume we can achieve for our small area. Before hand, we were only able to do full coverage of one game, and then brief other games the day after. Lifesize allowed us to collect interviews, athlete and school promotions, and complete coverage of every football game in our area.,9,Zoom and Workplace by Facebook,My top priorities would be encryption, considering how dispensable personal information is today. Lifesize is safe to use and provides a certified encryption. It also centralizes a workspace really well. It's easy to connect and usher a meeting within minutes. It's a trusted company without many negative reviews as well.Andrey LanierLifesize Cloud Review2018-11-09T16:45:26.293ZOur entire organization uses Lifesize daily, both for scheduled meetings and for ad-hoc meetings. We use it mainly for meetings with external parties such as our customers, partners, and distributors. As we are based out of Stockholm and many of our customers sit in cities outside of Stockholm, Lifesize provides us with a solution to keep close contact with our customers without the need for travel saving us both time and money.,Lifesize provides a simple and intuitive GUI which makes it easy to use even for non-experienced users.
We have many meetings with first time Lifesize Cloud users and all of them have been happy with the easy way of dialing into a meeting with any type of device they have been using.
Very good integrations with Skype for business, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Slack, HipChat and others making it easy for the customers to continue using the preferred calendar/chat software and still be able to have the quality and security of a Lifesize video meeting.,The licensing could be more flexible, specially for smaller companies that may have use of only a handful of licenses were the Premium 10 is to expensive and a Fast Start doesn't include all interesting features.
The possibility to have only one portal/login for all our Lifesize customers instead of having to create a login for each and every one of our customers would be highly appreciated.
Also to be able to pair the video systems to the Cloud before sending the system out to the customer would be a powerful tool.,10,We have many customers outside of Stockholm where we operate. With Lifesize we can have weekly or even daily meetings with these customers without the need for travel saving us a huge amount of time and money.
Instead of spending half the day traveling for one meeting we can have several meetings in the same time frame making it possible for us to demo our solutions to more new potential customers in less time which makes for more business deals done.,9,StarLeaf, Zoom, BlueJeans, Skype for Business, Google Hangouts, Cisco WebEx Room Series (formerly Cisco Spark Room Series), Polycom RealPresence Group Series, Vidyo, Avaya Scopia XT and Polycom RealPresence Immersive Video ConferencingChristoffer SornerVideo conferencing solution for everyone2018-09-26T18:53:18.928ZWe're using this solution to bring in remote subject matter experts, distance learning and global collaboration sessions.

When I can’t make it to the office, I’m able to join by my iPhone or iPad. It’s been very convenient. The chat function is very nice we and are able to use it internally.,Simple installation.

Chat feature.
Being able to connect to multiple different platforms (iPhone, Android, etc.).,10,ZoomVerified UserA complete package for communication for the organization whether it be video call, audio call or chatting2019-01-10T23:46:18.058ZLifesize video conferencing is being used in some departments where we need to communicate with several group members simultaneously on an audio or video call.
It solves the problem of communication by allowing one to create a team meeting and have all team members join in the most formal way possible.
Lifesize is available across all platforms like Windows and Android so anyone can use it anywhere by just logging in to their life-size account.,First of all, video calls as well as video conferencing. I think it is [quite stabel] and does not lag much. One can join the video meeting just by using the extension of the teammate. One can record the video chat as well; that is a nice feature to have.
Audio conferencing, as well as the feature of being able to mute the microphone when needed.
Chatting and scheduling meetings of any type: audio, video or chat.
Screen sharing is quite a good feature.,Recorded video can only be played through the browser and is not saved on the local directory. It should have the functionality to save the recording in the local storage as well.
It should show a list of people in the same organization. Instead, you have to add them manually.
Android app has fewer features than the desktop. They should improve this too.,8,I think it has a positive ROI, but I don't have the data as this is run by the organization.,9,Jabber,A video conferencing system, first of all, should have good picture quality as well as sound quality and it should be real time without any delay in the live video. Lifesize is good in these areas.Verified User
