Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Chime

We use Amazon Chime to host and attend meetings across our organization. The ability to have a call-in number for those that have sub-par internet access is nice. It allows our multi-location enterprise to keep in communication across several departments. It lets our remote workforce keep in touch with the local headquarters and with their co-workers both within and outside of the country.
  • The screen sharing aspect of Chime is very useful when attempting to demonstrate functionality to our remote users.
  • Using Chime as an instant messaging app between our workforce is extremely helpful.
  • It is quite simple to send an invite and have Outlook manage the appointment. Then Chime automatically calls you when the appointment is about to start.
  • Most organizations seem to use different applications and Chime isn't one of the major players yet. Therefore, it is difficult using it across companies.
  • The application seems a little "heavy" when using video. Maybe a little redesign might help.
  • The contact list should be integrated into Outlook.
  • Chime was a lot less expensive than our previous meeting/chat software.
  • Users have quickly adopted Chime and seem to like using it.
Chime was a lot less expensive that WebEx. It was also easier to use and maintain.
We have only had one issue with Chime and support was able to help us out quickly and efficiently.
