Overall Satisfaction with BlueJeans Meetings
Every week, I host a meeting with retirees for Senior Social Hour. We have had people join us from across the United States and Canada. In the past year, I learned that many Seniors may not know much about videoconferencing. BlueJeans offers an easy to use tool for them to connect, become engaged, learn new skills, and meet other Seniors while keeping them physically safe. Some weeks we have Seniors share a presentation about a favorite vacation or their personal interest. BlueJeans is easy to join and provides a quality presentation. I am able to record the sessions and share with others who were unable to attend the meeting.
- Simple login process.
- Easy to schedule meetings.
- Has a seamless mobile and PC experience.
- Better troubleshooting; especially issues with audio.
- Compress videos from recordings.
- Allow better editing functions for videos.
- In 2021, I have had 43 Senior join the Seniors Social Hour from across the US and Canada.
- Having in person meetings has been of out of the question for the past year and a half. My business helps Seniors create their end of life plan. It's been a learning curve for Seniors know how to use video conferencing. They use it to stay in touch with their families and trusted advisors. Combating social isolation continues to be a major issue for many Seniors.

Simply put, this is the market leader. Most people I know only want to use one tool and this is the one they learned first. Business owners like Zoom better for overall quality of the call. Because so many people have the tool, they don't have issues with everyone joining. For my clients, Seniors were provided for free or rent tablets from Android/Google. Having a product which was handed to them preloaded with another technology on it means Seniors had to "buy" BlueJeans and download it. For Seniors, simplicity is everything - especially where technology is concerned. Sorry, BlueJeans/Verizon - you want to be market leader in this consumer space - you missed the boat. You did not consider that Seniors needed the hardware, training, and the broadband access to be the preferred choice for this segment of the US population (only 56 million people).
