What do you like best about Lifesize?

When we need to have multi-national meetings with USA, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, China and Germany at the same time, the most reliable technology is LifeSize, either with the videoconference rooms we have set in many of these countries, or with the stand alone app for those members of the team that are on the road. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

Sometimes the broadband required is more than the internet broadband available I certain places. That causes pixelated video or cut audio, and even some of the attendant get droped off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

When the broadband requirements are making your transmission/reception slow or distorted, try to reduce resources from the participants that are passive (turning audio off, for example). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are having huge savings in traveling expenses and have reduce the number of absences to important meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lifesize share seems to hang from time to time on a previous presentation screen where we need to reboot the lifesize share to clear out the frozen screen share.
