Overall Satisfaction with Lifesize Share

As a Videoconferencing and Digital Signage professional, I deploy multiple solutions for small, medium, and executive meeting rooms from multiple vendors. Since the pandemic and the massive usage of collaborative tools: companies seek efficiency, flexibility, and creativity. Many companies struggle with siloed equipment for every single feature. A dedicated codec for Videoconferencing, a TV with lots of cables for sharing, and a mix of microphones for audio, and for Videoconferencing. The Lifesize Share is an all-in-one solution for a full-featured meeting room. It provides all that every modern meeting room needs. On one project, a customer had a physical whiteboard (and nonworking markers), HDMI, DVI, VGA (and more) cables, a legacy Tandberg equipment. He decided to deploy a Lifesize Share, a solution on top of 20 years of experience and innovation efforts Lifesize put in meeting room conferencing solutions. Now the video meetings are 4K, brainstorming on a whiteboard is easy, and sharing content is intuitive and cable-free and without any intervention of an IT technician. They now are more than ever focus on business matters rather than old technical problems. This truly liberates the productivity and efficiency in meetings.

Lifesize desktop app is suitable for guest invitees. It's well-designed, intuitive, and hassle-free software available on all platforms plus web-based interfaces that don't need any pre-installation. It is fully integrated with Lifesize Share. This can be used jointly with Microsoft Teams which is the main collaborative tool used in the company. The user experience is smooth and no difference is noticed between a user connecting from Teams or a user connecting to Lifesize App.

Lifesize is best suited for a customer wanting to replace siloed solutions where he uses Cisco for videoconferencing, a mix of collaborative desktop solutions (Teams, Skype and Cisco), and various physical other tools for sono, whiteboard, etc. Lifesize is an all-in-one solution for a smart meeting room. The interoperability of Lifesize with various solutions including cloud ones makes it infrastructure agnostic since it fits customer who already has Teams, Webex or IBM Cloud Unified communications solutions. The business cases are numerous, from executive meetings, E-Learning, Event hosting, design sessions, and lots more. However, the Lifesize solution should not be mistaken as PBX-like, the customer still needs an infrastructure for voice and chat messaging, or also a contact center solution. Yet, for contact center features, Lifesize is suitable for knowledge workers for video escalation or a workshop with customers for example.
