Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Chime

We use Amazon Chime within a single department of around 80 engineers. This allows quick video communication between the department.
  • Spinning up an instant meeting
  • Integration with existing amazon accounts
  • Does not require a paid subscription for external parties to join meetings
  • Interface is very basic but simple
  • There are many other products providing similar functionality with more features
  • Ease of use
  • Simple
  • Single dashboard for different communication tools all in one place
  • Positive impact with increased efficiency of collaboration for staff
  • If your organization integrates with Amazon or AWS it is quick to deploy
Users have a level of familarity with other market leading collaboration products.

However we selected this for the single dashboard for chat, calling, meeting and messaging specifically on phone app. There is a very simple interface with a minimum of clicks to launch the sub-app.
