What do you like best about Highfive?

Highfive is so easy to use. Once you're signed up it's all just creating a link for your team to join and boom. Send the link over e-mail, IM, pop it in a meeting invite, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

Quality is still an issue but it is improving. One of our offices has a pretty lossy network and this has caused headaches, particularly for people on wifi networks. Also degradation with many users does seem to be an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Highfive solving and how is that benefiting you?

Remote standups, meetings, 1:1's you name it. Given that it's easy to use it makes the cost of entry to doing a video meeting much less and that's the primary benefit Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very simple to install

Software is very intuitive

Portable devices can participate in video conferences without complex setup Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

Need to consider adding WiFi capability to the Video Conference Device; sometimes it can be very practical.

Need to consider the possibility to enable advanced setting on the device, we should have the capability to calibrate sound at will. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Highfive:

This is a very practical product with almost no complexity to deploy.

Pricing is very competitive.

Need to be careful if placing the video conferencing unit under the TV/Monitor, bad sound/feedback effect can be added to the video conference and it will be difficult to eliminate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Implement a low cost, reliable video conferencing service.

Provide alternatives to business trips Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Highfive?

Highfive is great at video conferencing with teams in a physical conference room. We use it for including virtual team members into team meetings and breakouts on the big screen in our conference room. Happiness is everyone being on the same page! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

I like to be able to see everyone's face - everyone who is on the conference. Currently, Highfive app just shows you who is talking so you can't see reactions or even if the other people are still there. I've heard this is coming soon though! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Highfive solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're about 50% virtual and having more people included in more meetings that are happening for those non-remote people good things happen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
