Overall Satisfaction with Dialpad Meetings (formerly UberConference)
My whole organization moved to Highfive for our video conferencing solution. We use it to facilitate meetings internally and externally. It is a great help when trying to organize a working session with a remote team.
- Very simple to use, where other tools use passwords and complex links, users within an organization are able to join a call just by knowing the name and outsiders can be added in by the host.
- Google Chrome add-on makes jumping into calls a little faster, although it does still require the standalone client.
- Video and audio quality is ranges between excellent and bearable depending on connection quality.
- Highfive has no built in chat feature, which is a large downside. Sharing links and general text conversation needs to be carried out through another service.
- The simple nature of entering into any call with its name also means you can't truly have a secure internal call because any member of your organization with the name or link can join into the call.
- We have also experienced a lot port based errors in our months with the product.
- You are not able to choose which screen you share with Highfive.
- Overall, it fits the niche but it does not excel over similar tools like Webex.
