Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use BlueJeans throughout our firm as the primary solution for online meetings and trainings. It's used to replace physical meetings given the pandemic but also pro-actively to host hybrid meetings that would have been purely in-presence before.

Pros and Cons

Good cross-platform usability
Breakout rooms are seamless and don't "break" as with competing products
Uploads for videos

Whiteboard function rather limited
Not everyone has access to BlueJeans in a corporate environment
Extremely large download for initial connection - people are always five minutes late

Return on Investment

BlueJeans is a good substitute for face-to-face contact given good audio and video quality

Alternatives Considered

Webex (formerly Webex Teams), Zoom, GoToMeeting, Skype, 8x8 Meet and Microsoft Teams

BlueJeans has the best meeting experience for team meetings -- good audio and video quality and good scheduling features.

It is also well suited for trainings given the unique video upload feature and good handling of breakout rooms.

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited for intra-company work. Works less with external participants as most people are only familiar with the two largest competitors. Some people cannot install the app as per their corporate IT policy and need to resort to using their mobile instead.
