Overall Satisfaction with Lifesize Video Conferencing

Most of the team that used Lifesize had 100MBS for connectivity and it still broke down. Sorry, it is really bad.
Lifesize was used across the company for customer and internal video conferences and collaboration. As far as I am concerned, Lifesize was a disaster. The video was really, really bad for internal uses across the U.S. Internationally it was a joke, unusable. I had to stop using Lifesize for customer calls because it would break down for no reason all the time. It was embarrassing.

Pros

  • Interface looks good, video layout.
  • Like to be able to make conference rooms.

Cons

  • Wow, [Lifesize has room for improvement] everywhere performance is needed, video poor, call quality poor.
  • Connectivity bad, breaks down. I think every Lifesize call or video call I had broke down. If not 100% maybe 90% had issues, where 1 or more people had to reconnect or we had to restart the full call...really bad use of expensive consultant time.
  • Does not work with Microsoft Lync/Skype for Business either. Did for a while and then just stopped working.
Lifesize may work better inside a company, does not work with a distributed global organization.
