(Original )Information
What do you like best about Lifesize?

The ease of use,, not only for Meeting Organizers, but those joining and participating is unmatched. There's a reason our whole office of over 200 people made the switch. The iPhone app is also great to call in, with you user name already saved, and having your scheduled meetings on the home page so you don't have to sift through meeting invites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

When hosting large meetings (with over 15 call in's) when people accidentally come and go, the UI interface on the hosting screen (often on the TV in the conference room with everyone else) constantly needs to be readjusted to show the screen how you would like. Also, maybe we just haven't found it yet, a way for people from confirmed emails to auto-join meetings so we don't have to stand by a remote the whole meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

Getting the team on boar beforehand to make sure you all have the same end goal is key. Make sure users want things such as Live Video. I can see that some people wouldn't. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Having a streamlined, and professional looking Meeting Service helps keep our company's image on the good side. Before LifeSize, having to juggle all of the different conference room phone numbers, and codes, and scheduling services was a headache that we always had to reteach to employees. We've come to realize how easy it is to set up invites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

This software is just great. What I like best about it is that just by sending a link, anyone can join the meeting. No need for complicated subscriptions, simply writing your name and join the visio-conference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

For what concerns my use of the software, there is nothing I dislike. All I need works: proper connection, good image quality and I can use it anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Doing conferences was always complicated because other softwares do not enable me to maintain a good sound and image quality while multiple campuses are connected at the same. Now doing, international conferences just got easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

Simplicity of the product and ease of use. We often deploy some flavor of LifeSize to employees with little to no training necessary. It is a simple product to pickup and use. We also appreciate the investment LifeSize has made to the product, as new updates and enhancements are always in the works. It's refreshing to see and hear about all the items being worked on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

At the level at which we utilize LifeSize, cost can become a factor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

For our company dynamic, having numerous remote locations across the US and globally is required. Constantly traveling to these facilities isn't feasible. Trying to meet by telephone is ineffective. Having Lifesize across all of our facilities has allowed for us to better facilitate communication across all entities in the business. In many of these locations there are language barriers. LifeSize has allowed us to establish a much more collaborative effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

I like how lifesize integrates well with Microsoft. We have meetings booked via outlook and when you walk into the conference room, it shows up on the pod. All you have to do it click a button. The other feature that I do enjoy is the mobile access. I am able to use lifesize on my phone with the same functions as a desktop version. Sharing desktops is another feature that is great. You have a direct connection via a laptop or a seperate connection via desktop. You have even set up both and choose that display you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

At times we do have to reboot due to an upgrade that was done. This seems to be only downsize to the product. We have not any other issues. It is hard to dislike something that has really lifted a burden off your shoulders when it comes to remote or teleconference. The pros far out weight the cons in this scenerio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

It is very easy to use and deploy. There were no issues that came up during the deployment of our life size units. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Teleconference is one problem we had. We use to have old cisco devices that were not that reliable. The network would drop or the video feed would cut out. Lifesize helped fix those issues. Our users are now able to use Lifesize in a conference room, desktop or laptop, and on their mobile devices or tablet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rebecca Sims of Lifesize

Hi Francesco,

What a fantastic review! We love to hear that you enjoy the video quality of our solution. mall meeting rooms encourage spontaneous collaboration, and the technology in them should enable it. Easy installation and simple, plug-and-play functionality are critical. Also important: capturing everyone in the online meeting on screen while taking up minimal space in the room. The Lifesize® Icon 450™ and Phone™ HD are designed to deliver effortless video conferencing for an unparalleled small meeting room experience.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

Good quality cameras and streaming performance. Recordings are easy to initiate from a user perspective. Easy to manage all Lifesize units from a central admin console online. Responsive and friendly staff when communicating with corporate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

Lifesize hardware units can crash, causing a delay in meetings (rare but does occur)

Desktop app can sometimes act strange or buggy, forcing us to switch to web application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Lifesize allows us easier collaboration and communication between our offices scattered across the globe. They allow us to quickly hop into a conference room and speak to another large group in other office.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

Feature to record conference, ease use of the application and great to use with people out of the organization. Support have a a lot of people at the same time in the same conference meeting is a really good feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

It's not supported on Firefox and there is not a desktop app for Ubuntu. I have to use the web version, anyway it works good. Hard to share only one screen with the web version, it would be really good to have this feature like we have with the desktop version in windows or mac. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

Lifesize is a very valuable resource to help with facilitating our corporate meetings. The technology is seamless and very easy to use. Our account representative is very knowledgeable and helpful. She takes the time to understand our needs and pairs us with the right technology to fit those needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

We have been very pleased with Lifesize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have several weekly corporate meetings in which employees from multiple offices participate. With Lifesize we are able see and interact with everyone in the meeting regardless of their physical location. Being able to see all parties in the meeting gives you the ability to gauge tone and body language that you just cannot do through a typical conference call. I personally participate in a weekly leadership meeting through my Lifesize connection. Lifesize makes me feel as if I am in the room with the rest of the group.
