What do you like best about Lifesize?

I like the ease in which you can make a video call to a colleague from the desktop application and share/discuss documents with them. The room systems we have are cool too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

I wouldn't say that there are downsides particularly to using Lifesize. There are a couple of features that aren't currently available in it which are available in other products but they weren't that significant in our decision making. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

I would recommend ensuring that you understand the concept of the virtual meeting rooms which we didn't quite understand to start with. We're glad we took the time to understand how many we would actually need as we would have run out if we hadn't taken the time to understand how they worked. It was subtly different to how it worked in Webex for recurring meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We needed to improve collaboration throughout the company by introducing some room systems as well as giving everyone the application on their desktop so they had their own individual virtual rooms in which to meet with customers and/or colleagues. We have more remote workers than ever (even before the COVID-19 pandemic) so needed to be able to work better with those colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

We've been using Lifesize for several years and it has proved to be a game changer for us, as a business spread across the UK, Middle East and Far East.

The high quality (4k) video and audio in our meeting rooms, on laptops and mobile devices allows us to work remotely, communicate effectively and maintain high quality conversation easily.

The effectiveness of Lifesize has become very clear over the past few months during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

The interface has previously felt a little dated, but it is quickly improving. New features roll out quickly

As a standalone platform, it's also important that it integrates nicely with other comms software. Currently, Teams yes, Slack Not so much.

Relatively high implementation costs, if you opt for the meeting room setup. If you operate in a meeting room environment, it's worth it though.

Occasionally we experience technical / sound / video issues, but this is often the result of poor performing home broadband. Worth noting, as this may affect some remote working staff, or those in areas of the world where FTTH is not available!

The lack of ability to do much with a shared screen (draw, make notes, annotate) can sometimes be frustrating, especially when you have Slack available to offer it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

There are many options out there, but I would seriously consider Lifesize, especially if you need a meeting room setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Effective, high quality conversation with a global team. This helps to reduce travel and phone costs significantly, and maintain on-going working relationships, rather than sporadic.

We're able to meet with colleagues, suppliers and clients, even if they are not Lifesize users. This is made particularly easy by the Teams integration.

VC (especially meeting room based) functionality is not widely available for teams in China, and Lifesize solves this for us.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, it has also allowed social gathering for those in the business, ensuring any distanced staff are still socially engaged. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

Lifesize has proven to be intuitive to set up and use. Most importantly, Lifesize is flexible. I have been able to use it across PC and iPad meetings seamlessly. Simple to set up, simple to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

I'd prefer that the app did not set itself up to automatically load when my PC starts. I know I can change that, but the default should be to let the user decide upfront. That's a drain on resources when not needed. Otherwise, very satisfied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

Intuitive, well executed, easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Working in a close knit team during the Pandemic, Lifesize has proven to be a great tool to help us with our ongoing work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

Lifesize is very reliable. I rarely, if ever have an issue during meetings. It's very easy to have guests join meetings - no signing up required! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

I have used Lifesize to host virtual D&D games during COVID and not being able to set a particular participant as the "main" screen to display can be frustrating. It shows the active speaker/noisemaker but sometimes we only want to see one person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

It's great in the conference rooms using the Icon camera. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It has been possible to host virtual D&D games when friends can't gather together! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

Lifesize does everything you'd expect it to, which is often rare among other conferencing technology solutions. I've never experienced a problem with video or audio quality, joining meetings, creating rooms, or anything else. Just the confidence that the solution will work for me and others who will be joining meetings, even when external, is a major benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

Nothing to dislike. The usability of the app could use a little bit of work, but that is nitpicky, since it's still pretty good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

Worth consideration Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Video conferencing among our company internally and with folks externally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
