Overall Satisfaction with BlueJeans

BlueJeans was implemented last year in ObsEva and is used across the whole organization. We work a lot with external partners and have an office in Boston US, therefore the video conferencing system helps to get together people although we are on different continents.

In my previous organization, we used BlueJeans to connect over 15 different locations.
  • BlueJeans works on different devices - you can join the call using your phone, laptop or a tablet such as Ipad, and can use video and sound or just sound as you wish.
  • BlueJeans works with telephone lines and internet so no matter where you are you, there are high chances you will be able to connect.
  • BlueJeans is extremely user-friendly. When inviting people to a meeting the system creates a link and the participants just having to click on the link to connect!
  • There is a lot of functionality such as share screen or just an application, mute participants etc.
  • Under Windows 10 we have encountered some issues during long meetings when sharing a screen. The issue has been resolved by sharing only the application (PowerPoint for example).
  • For very long meetings (over 2 hours) connection by phone tends to drop after a while.
  • When sharing a presentation, the latter appears on the screen and the participants disappear from the screen (are in a small window) - would be good to choose whether you want to keep the in participants full screen, especially for long-distance meetings.
  • BlueJeans is helping us develop a sense of unity as a company which is not always a given with offices in different locations and timeframes. It has simplified our way of working and integrated better overseas staff.
BlueJeans is more stable and more professional with its functionalities.
BlueJeans is very well suited for meetings with members of staff or third parties in different locations. It is also very handy for sharing material such as presentations. I use it frequently for first screening of job interviews and find it much better than just over the phone! This can help reduce travel costs.
