What do you like best about Highfive?

It is an easy to use and intuitive tool, with a fine interface, accessibility everywhere, and a good quality scaling set. Audio is consistently good across all platforms. Video scaling is good in low to mid-res applications. Remote site sessions are nice and fluid, with excellent audio, particularly if a headset is used. Color selection and interface is attractive and contemporary. Fits well with many company themes that are technology-oriented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

The proprietary camera system for the boardroom is slightly larger than most web cameras and makes it challenging to mount. The camera, however, contains the smarts for the local (in boardroom) operations. Once installed and deployed, it's easy coasting. Video scaling is not so good when connected to a 4K system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Highfive:

Get your users on the same page for a consistent experience throughout. A quick 1/2 hr training session will yield great results during the collab sessions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Collaboration between users in separate conference rooms and home offices become simple and well-orchestrated. Users appreciate the consistent look and feel across platforms and take advantage of the features since they are intuitive. Users on the road have good access since the Bluetooth implementation works well with cellphones and car audio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Whenever we are doing a call if anyone is near a cell phone or a land line phone there is a high amount of buzzing interference and you cannot hear the main presenter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have to have several meetings with people all around the country, it helps bring us all together in one place. It is used consistently in my company and seems to be a solution to allowing meetings to take place without having to travel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Clayton Pritchard of Highfive

Thank you for your review! We're happy to let you know that Highfive will no longer require a separate app download in the next few weeks. You'll soon be able to join your meetings directly from within the Google Chrome browser!

What do you like best about Highfive?

The screen share and new phone feature to add in the conference. The phone featured has really helped. I recently was unable to hear anything via the high five on my computer but when I dialed in I was able to catch up instead of delay the meeting or use another source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

I liked how I could just get into high five, I don't like this new e-mail process in order to get into the meeting and I do not like that the app only works on chrome, has issues with recognizing the app on the computer when opened via internet explorer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Highfive:

Make sure to check the function in another web browser before contacting support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have held multiple training, meeting and hang outs with co workers to either discuss a new project or catch up with the new companies we partner with. The app even allows freedom to simply talk about the weekend or holidays. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Highfive?

Our company does a morning meeting each day, and being able to label the meeting with an icebreaker question is a great way for people to get excited for the day. It's also very easy to connect with coworkers who are working remotely or out of town! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highfive?

An area of improvement could be in the connection-- the more people we have in the meeting the quality can become muddled and it is hard to see/hear people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Highfive:

Highfive is especially helpful if you have multiple offices and remote workers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We recently had many workers go remote, and it's a great way to stay in touch! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
