Overall Satisfaction with BlueJeans Events (formerly Primetime)

BueJeans has become a real solution for our needs, we as a higher education institution have used it for webinars, meetings, online classes even for recording lectures. It easily integrates with our current Polycom and Lifesize equipment as it supports H323 connection. It is widely used within our campus from teachers to students and staff members. The interface is friendly and I like the fact that they keep adding more features every month, share videos with audio, in session meetings. When scheduling meetings we can invite participants directly from the BlueJeans interface without the need of copying the invite information and send it via email.

Pros

  • Send invites directly from the BlueJeans interface.
  • H323 connector it is already included, no need to purchase any extra add-on.
  • Allows simultaneous meetings with only single user account, no need to end one meeting to start another one.

Cons

  • Should have an option to prevent participants from activating their audio from the BlueJeans app.
  • Have a larger room for participants, now it only allows 100 participants with the current standard license.
  • Share or attach docs using the participants chat.
  • Money saved on travel.
  • More productive meetings.
  • Automated flows as it integrates with other apps.
In BlueJeans you can have a unlimited cloud storage for recording meetings, Zoom the storage is limited.
BlueJeans can have multiple meeting running at the same time with one single user account. Zoom you can have only one meeting at the same time per user.
BlueJeans user interface is a lot more friendly than Webex or Microsoft Teams.
Google Meet is good but you cannot directly stream to Facebook Live.

You can invite someone else to be the moderator without the need for this person to have a BlueJeans account, this is a good feature because the host is not necessary to connect or sign in to start a scheduled meeting, this task can be delegated to someone else. You can start another meeting without the need of ending the current meeting, this allows you to run multiple meetings at the same, in some cases this might be necessary. For larger groups it is difficult to prevent users from turning on their microphones and interrupting.
