I've been using Lifesize for 2 years until now, and I have to say that it gets better and better with the time. I work in Dominican Republic and it is easy to connect with my partners in USA using Lifesize. It is fast, useful and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

I think it lasts a little long to start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

I can easily get in touch with my partners in USA when I am in Dominican Republic. I like that we can access to different conference rooms and also see each other faces. It is amazing also that we can show what we have in our screens if it is needed in the meeting. In our company we use Lifesize to make team conferences, to talk about how our workflow is going. We also use Lifesize to take trainnings if we need a training from the office in United States. This program is perfect for companies that have many employees and different offices around the word. I will definitely chooce Lifesize over other similar programs in the market because it is versatile and helps to resolve distance problems when we need to communicate fast via video call or call. Lifesize is just the best option for big companies, no matter the area of business that it is dedicated to. LifeSize is the perfect communication application or program you could get to connect people, partners and employees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

I have been using Lifesize for some time now and while is not the perfect tool it is still pretty great. You can easily set up conference rooms and send the invite via phone or Lifesize , which is great for also communicating on a conference that do not belong to your company. It is also great in the Recordings topic, excellent for you to do training sessions or daily catch up meetings. Checking on your recordings. It is also an easy to use tool. You can star your favorites and most used rooms, as well as check on the active ones in case you can't recall what was the Meeting Room name. In general, I would really recommend this tool for anyone who needs a telecommunications service for your company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

It logs me out plenty of time, I'd like it to keep logged in since I have problems remembering my password.

Recordings and allowing people to see what you recorded is something I would really like to have in the app instead of going to the web. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

The app is very easy to use and doesn't require to be very tech savvy in order to have a video conference meetings for work meetings with coworkers inside or outside the office, since you can have it on your smartphone android or ios, laptop o personal computer (windows or mac) it comes real handy for having fast & direct video communication.

Lifesize offers a decent set of features, including:

Screen sharing

Call recording

Moderator controls

Live streaming

Breakout rooms

Chat

Email and calendar integration with Outlook and Google

Its no longer is it necessary to pay for entire flights across the country – or, in some cases, the world – in order to meet in person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

The app interface could be more simple during a video meeting so user can get the most out of it without having to pause or have to stop the video call to make changes during the same. The app sometimes takes time to connect with other user for video calls. However, we've experienced many dropped calls during the use of the application.

Although the pricing tiers that Lifesize offers are more expensive than comparable subscription plans from the likes of RingCentral and Zoom, Lifesize more than makes up for the negligible difference in cost by incorporating its own hardware into its plans Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

LifeSize is our preferred meeting tool when we want to communicate visually, and we want to present to a group of people. In times where a single person is presenting to a handful of people, particularly when reviewing forms or documents or when training in a new software. So for most meetings, we meet as a group on LifeSize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Currently using it for work video meetings with coworkers outside the country in different locations, who need fast and reliable video conference. We have accomplised fast and easy consultation for problem solving, with the ease of a click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

One of my favorite features is the ability to use a virtual conference room. You can send out a link for others to join. All participants can join from a LifeSize video conference with a LifesSize device, laptop, cell phone or tablet. We even have some members join the conference with just audio (phone call). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

The remote for the new LifeSize devices are smaller and therefore easier to misplace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

In the past, I had to physically call each of the participants of a video conference. It's time consuming and embarrassing when you have multiple people on a conference call. Especially when you get three or four and then make a mistake on the fifth number. Now, you can send out an email and everyone joins themselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rebecca Sims of Lifesize

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the fantastic feedback, and Wow!! We can't believe you had to physically call each of the participants individually while using your previous video conferencing provider. That sounds frustrating and cumbersome!

We love our easily accessible virtual meeting rooms as well. Lifesize's video conferencing solution for PC, Mac, tablet and phone gives you an easy way to start a video chat or join a meeting right from your laptop or personal device. Connect to your calendar to stay on schedule throughout the day, share your screen with industry-leading video quality and record any meeting with a single click through the intuitive UI of the Lifesize App.
