Overall Satisfaction with Lifesize Video Conferencing

again only 3 cables for hookup, makes for quick installs
At Doster we have been using the Lifesize Video System for about 6 years now. The Lifesize Video Conference system eliminates the need for travel to and from many meeting and will absolutely pay for itself. We have job sites throughout the country from New Jersey to Denver, just think if we had to travel to those meetings, the cost would be crazy. One the issue the Lifesize Video system has resolved is the personality factor. Conference calls just do not help nowadays, with high definition video you can see the people you are talking with and make sure you're not losing them. Plus next time you meet them, you will already know their face. In my role as IT manager the setup and maintenance of the system are super easy. We can send a unit to a job site and within 20 minutes the units are online and running. We utilize the cloud portal to manage all the job sites physical units and the software-based clients. The software-based clients give the functionality of today's fast-paced world, you can download the app on your mobile device or a tablet then join a meeting anywhere which has really benefited our guys that travel. Overall at Doster we like the fact that the Lifesize units are on a secure platform, are easy to use and add a ton of value to our organizations day to day activity.
  • Easy of setup, 3 cables and your up and running
  • Great picture at low internet speeds
  • Very flexible when using other tech
  • Better 3rd party support
  • Easier use of multiple cameras
  • Wifi ability in smaller units
  • Initial costs seem high but are justified by the savings in travel cost
  • Definite benefit for outside individuals to be able to connect
Have looked at other units and I haven't found one with the benefits of the cloud like Lifesize
I would say if you have remote employees Lifesize is a no-brainer.
