Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use BlueJeans as a tool during team meetings when we need to have more of a personal touch. BlueJeans allows us to engage our webcams to be able to see the meeting participants. It helps keep everyone engaged.

Pros and Cons

Webcam sharing
Audio through computer
Virtual meetings

Audio Buffering sometimes lags
Dashboard is a little complicated
Recording could be improved

Return on Investment

BlueJeans is a tool we use to keep meetings efficient, saving time and money.
Great way to get messaging across.
Great tool to further objectives via productive meetings.

Alternatives Considered

WebEx Event Center, ON24 and GoToMeeting

BlueJeans is one of many tools we use. However it is my go-to for web meetings because it can be used easily with people inside or outside of our organization.

Likelihood to Recommend

BlueJeans is great for bringing team members together who are remote or in different offices. It's a great solution to help personalize team meetings and forces people to participate. It's a great collaborative tool. BlueJeans is not so good when you need to share to a large group, like in a training event. The number of camsand computer audio can be distracting.
