Overall Satisfaction with BlueJeans

We use BlueJeans specifically for research team meetings for one federally funded grant. So just on one grant within a department at Peabody College at Vanderbilt. It allows us to meet with research team members at other universities and our local partners at other organizations.
  • I think the setup and log in is very easy for new users. I rarely have to assist people with accessing the call.
  • I like being able to schedule and send meeting invitations within Outlook.
  • I've had good experience with the customer service.
  • The audio quality is not always great. Our room setup is not ideal for video meetings. We would like to use a desk mic or webcam mic, but we have had many issues with those, so we have to call in on our conference room phone.
  • I've had some problems with the BlueJeans app freezing on my mac laptop, but I did have some success with reaching out to customer service and making sure that I don't have several other things open at the same time.
  • More productive meetings. Easy to jump into the meeting room for a quick call because it is always available.
We selected BlueJeans because meetings can be started without a moderator, affordability, and because the trial worked well for our needs.
Very easy
Very well suited for individuals all calling in from their own offices/computers. Not as great for group meetings with a lot of people in one room, but I don't know that any other services actually work better, so I would still recommended people try BlueJeans first.
