Vidyo

Vidyo is used as a primary meeting tool across the whole company. With work from home becoming the norm, Vidyo helps connect everyone in the team across the globe to come together over video and work together. All meetings/discussions/events take place over Vidyo. It's simple to use and works seamlessly.

Vidyo is used for video conferencing, primarily for larger meetings with a participant count of more than 100 people. It is being used by one department (of around 30 people) only, and mainly in connection with external meetings where participants from many different organizations world wide are involved in planning and as participants.

Vidyo is being used across the whole organization for video meetings. So grateful during these COVID times that we were already using this tool and everyone is familiar with it. We have always experienced quality connections, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a tool to connect for video calls.

We are using this program as a video conference system. Being a remote employee this has become an absolute need for me to log in and communicate with people in my office. We use this program across our entire organization to have meetings and also log into specific rooms for remote employees. We love that it doesn’t have time limits built-in and always has reliable service.

Vidyo first came about with my organization for telehealth usage. As a HIPAA compliant software this was essential for the use with secure conferencing, but most importantly secure telehealth visits with patients and families. Due to the nature of licensing of the software on our end, Vidyo has been extended for use in the HR and Business meeting spaces - hosting remote video conferences and conducting candidate interviews. Although other video programs are popular, I know there were troubles with getting programs like Skype effectively setup for all end users. Vidyo solved this problem with ease of setup and usage for numerous areas.

Reviews are my personal opinions only, and not that of Children's Hospital Colorado.

We use it for video conferencing purposes for education. To be honest, my personal experience with Vidyo wasn't as great as I would've liked it to be because I have faced several problems with it. If not for them, Vidyo is good because it offers "rooms" which people can join (for our case, it was the students from all over the world) and we can all see the teacher's screen and him/her as well and, like with Skype, Zoom, and Google Hangouts, it highlights the one who is speaking by bringing their video (or avatar) to the front.

In my company (a telecom company) we use Vidyo every day. We have offices in Chile, Peru, and Colombia. It helps us reduce travel costs. We also offer Vidyo to our customers. We use VidyoDesktop, VidyoMovil, and VidyoRooms in every city of our coverage in Chile.

Vidyo is an integral part of our company. We resell Vidyo to corporations. What sets Vidyo aside from the competition is its encoding and offline vidyo conferencing. It is a very reliable tool that works well on PC, Mac, and mobile devices. One huge drawback is the limited support for WebRTC. Basically, you need to install plugins that may or may not work to get proper browser support. The layout for the application might throw many people off and can be a huge drawback. Someone must really redesign the whole application and rebrand the company to be more friendly. Working with their API is a nightmare, everything hangs on a thread and bugs are not fixed but remedied. I wonder if the original developers quit and improvements are very slow now.

We currently use Vidyo at my company to facilitate global communication between regions and departments. We are a German-based enterprise with 24 production plants in at least 13 countries, so we use it worldwide for communication between locations. Every department and every location uses Vidyo as our main video conference software.

We leverage vidyo today company-wide for our video communication solution. Additionally, we resell it.
