What do you like best about Highfive?

I found HighFive a great software to use. First, installation was very easy on my work laptop. Second, it was so easy to create "meetings" that others can join. Others join by getting a link of the "meeting". Thirdly, during the meeting, it was so easy to navigate a meeting and interact with others. We interact by sharing our screens and/or real time videos of ourselves. Everything was intuitive. From set up, to meeting creation, to software navigation, and to performance - -everything was easy and seamless.

Loved that the whole thing is cloud based. Our company has the software installed in the board room and that is very helpful too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

To be honest, there's nothing to dislike. The whole thing was so easy to use. It doesn't take a genius to use High Five. But the product was by no means for idiots. It did the job it was set out to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Highfive:

To give it a try. It is really easy and it does the job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We want quick real time access to people and to be able to conduct discussions on things we would like to share from our computer and still keep that communication with others who are not in the same room. The benefit of HighFive is that it has enabled us to conduct meetings as if everyone was in the same room and on the same page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Highfive?

It handles a ton of callers no problem, phone calling into a meeting works well and easy, and slack integration is super nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

My only small complaint is the lag on screensharing. Even with a good internet connection, there is a delay between audio and the screen going through, so if you are showing someone something they may not see it for a few seconds after you say. This is a hard problem I haven't seen many other products do any better, but something to work on possibly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Highfive:

Honestly don't know what pricing is like because others at my firm handle that but it's a high quality product to be sure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Our firm has a lot of people who work remotely so highfive is a necessity to our day-to-day. We often hop on quick calls to show each other how to do things, as well as of course daily meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Highfive?

HighFive’s best attribute is that it is extremely easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

As a salesperson, call/video quality and connection are by far the most important attributes of a collaboration tool. HighFive fails me daily when clients can’t get in a meeting room or the call drops. Our sales meetings and company updates are conducted on HighFive and there are always major issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Trying to find an easy to use collaboration tool that integrates with our existing systems. To date I’ve only experienced issues with the platform that hurt my ability to connect with clients . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Highfive?

I like that you can wirelessly share your device to the screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

I hate how hard it is to stream video while mirroring from your device to the screen. Practically impossible to show video in work meetings.

Also, WHY do they not have a screensaver default function? It's ruined all the TVs in our agency. We have something like "Share to screen" burned on all of our TVs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Highfive:

If you have to share video using Highfive, stay clear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Reviewing work as a group in a meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Highfive?

Highfive is easy to use and makes working remotely and communicating with your team easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

It’s a great idea, but the equipment often has to be rebooted and there are a lot of quality issues. It’s fine for an internal meeting, but I will never use it with a client because of these issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It was supposed to be used for internal and external remote meetings and presentations. We only use it for internal, though, because the issues happen too frequently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
