Overall Satisfaction with Whereby

I use Whereby for coaching clients, both nationally and internationally. Having had the standard version when it was then known as Appear.In, and then in the last year or so the paid option, which has the handy record feature. Clients appreciate it that I can send them a recording of the session for them to review at their leisure.
  • Ease of loading the app
  • No codes or silly time wasting with getting connected
  • I was disappointed when they removed the fun icons which were on Appear.In.
  • They have since replaced them but with very boring ones!
  • It has made it easy to connect with international clients as well as overseas friends.
  • It is a very professional looking setup and gives a good impression that you are businesslike and professional.
Zoom I find clunky and not user-friendly as it's always asking you to do updates, attend their seminar trainings, and different codes. It's also expensive. GoToMeeting is much the same as Zoom.
Very good as I have only had to ask for help once, and it was fairly quickly resolved.

Surprisingly Whereby works amazingly well on the mobile phone. It is well suited when you want to make a more personal call than just a phone call. Easy to use and installation is nothing--so easy and more importantly fast. The basic version is free, for goodness sake! Why wouldn't you use it?
