WebRTC has been used to solve various business problems in the healthcare industry. With the current pandemic situation, medical professionals are limited to remote communication with patients and their colleagues. WebRTC helps those in the medical field connect with others outside of their immediate area, including other doctors, clinics, and hospitals. This has enabled doctors to provide timely consultations to patients without compromising on the quality of care and support they provide. Users appreciate WebRTC's real-time video consultations option that has helped them navigate through this unprecedented period.

Apart from healthcare, WebRTC is also widely used in creating audio or video conferences for businesses and educational institutions. The product excels as a solution for P2P communication, such as broadcasting and conferencing, with its top-notch features such as allowing VoIP dialing through Chrome. Some users have reported issues with audio callbacks and codec support when creating a video conferencing app for connecting celebrities with their fans. Still, it is generally agreed that WebRTC provides an excellent solution for video chat and file sharing applications that can be enjoyed on any modern device. Overall, WebRTC continues to be seen as a reliable platform where users can build solutions around real-time communication needs and provides invaluable benefits.

Real-time communication: Many users have found WebRTC to be a useful tool for real-time communication, allowing people in different locations to connect easily. Reviewers appreciated the ability to create peer-to-peer and peer-to-multi-peer connections, which they considered the best feature of WebRTC.

Ease of use and integration: Users have praised WebRTC for being easy to integrate and customize, with open-source code and the ability to modify signal and noise cancellation. The user also appreciated that it did not require peer-to-peer discovery, making it easier to develop the business logic.

Versatility: Several reviewers noted that WebRTC brought together telecommunication and web technologies, making it a valuable and versatile tool beyond voice and video calling. They cited examples such as distance learning and chat applications which were possible with this technology.

Complex Setup Process: Users have expressed frustration over the manual setup process for STUN and TURN servers, which has to be done based on product scalability and usage in different geographical locations. Several users have stated that this can be time-consuming and challenging to set up correctly.

Lack of Documentation: Many reviewers have noted the lack of documentation available for WebRTC, making it difficult for new users to understand the technology fully. Some users feel overwhelmed by the absence of proper section-wise documentation, which makes it challenging to navigate through troubleshooting issues.

Difficulties with Communication Standard: A significant challenge facing several users is that WebRTC is still under development as a communication standard. This makes it challenging for some customers to implement the software correctly, leading to lag in group chats or connection problems. Additionally, some customers dislike the absence of support for non-free codecs H.264 and H.265, which limits their ability to use certain features.
