Use Cases and Deployment Scope

All employees can have a BlueJeans account, so across the whole organization. It helps to hold virtual meetings as we are a global business.

Pros and Cons

Ease of use
Reliability
Easy to swap users/presenters

Recording facility often stops working mid-way through.
Sometimes it just doesn't load up.
It doesn't like working on some types of screens, I.E. plasma screens sometimes have issues.

Return on Investment

Money saved on travel.
More productive as we can screen share.
Chat allows for Q & A rather than relying on audio which can be confusing when you have a large audience.

Alternatives Considered

Cisco Webex Meetings

Quite similar, my preference would be BlueJeans as WebEx requires the host to kick start the meeting. I set up a lot of meetings but don't always need to be a participant.

Good for audio and visual meetings. Less suitable for phonecalls, we tend to use conferencing facilities for that. Good for presentations and can use internal mic or external AV. Good when holding meetings with people in different countries or when people can't be there in person. The recording feature is also useful.
