They should make audio compatible with Macs, I wish. They said they were working on it, but for the time being, we can route audio through Skype in a way that works for us. Also there is no support on mobile

I like that it is so easy to share the computing device remotely, just by using giving the ID and password and voila, its interface is secure and very comfortable, sending files in actual time is effortless and the audio and video first-class is very high....
