Overall Satisfaction with BlueJeans

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use BlueJeans within our department rather than the whole organization. It is used for internal calls if the staff is working off-site, calls with our external product development team and for webinars with our subscribers. We need to share screens to demonstrate our collection of e-books and BlueJeans allows us to do this easily.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Ease of inviting and adding contacts to a call
Quality of audio is good and the chat box allows one of us to monitor messages while the other is sharing her screen
Recordings arrive punctually and it's easy to share the link
Quality of the recordings is good

Cons

Send an automated reminder to attendees scheduled on a call, or have the option to turn that feature on.

Return on Investment

We have been running a trial program and BlueJeans has helped us reach out to the potential subscribers

Alternatives Considered

Cisco WebEx Room Series (formerly Cisco Spark Room Series)

We found that Cisco WebEx webinars sometimes had technical problems, especially with audio quality. It was also difficult to share a recording with those who had attended a webinar. We find BlueJeans does not have these glitches and works well for our needs. We selected BlueJeans based on the recommendation of our external product development team.

Usability

Good usability, it is easy to log on and join the meeting

Likelihood to Recommend

We find that BlueJeans works particularly well if we have several people invited to a call. Attendees rarely get dropped and the sound quality is good. Sharing screens works well. We particularly like the ease of sharing the recording link (this was a problem with the previous system that we used for webinars).
