What do you like best about Lifesize?

Simple installation of the system, no need for on-premise infrastructure. After having problems with Cisco and my firewalls, this was a big relief.

Fur sure the combination between software clients and meeting rooms online. Also the possibility to easy implement features like recording and streaming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

I disliked that it took me a year before I finally found Lifesize as a solution, because my former unified communication provider only advised me Polycom and Cisco equipement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

Just let an advisor come over and tell your story that you want to reach.

Do a trail with lifesize, do meetings with your suppliers and customers. If they don't have any Unified Communication system, they just can use the free Web Application of Lifesize

If you have offers from Bleujeans, Polycom, Cisco or other vendors, just take a look at the prices from Lifesize. Not cheap but that is the same with the other professional vendors.

I have calculated my return on investment, I think I have earned the system back after 1 year and 8 months. For sure if you have meetings not nearby or abroad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

- Stay at the office instead of have traffic jams (for all meetings for max. 2h)

- Ease of use, all employees use the app or web app

- No expensive infrastructure, less maintenance costs off my supplier

- No problems with my firewalls, because its only doing outgoing connection Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

In almost all lighting situations the camera is performing pretty good. In our demo center, we often change the light temperature to show how good the camera actually is!

The Lifesize Icon 450 is an integrated plug-and-play video conferencing system, designed to address the specific nature and challenges of huddle spaces: it combines room system performance with a space-saving design and Lifesize-typical, easiest installation and operation. Its innovative smart-framing sensor intelligently adjusts the crisp wide-angle camera lens to automatically capture and include everyone in the picture.

Thus, the Icon 450 allows a seamless video communication experience in even the smallest niche – and with features such as 5x optical zoom or Full HD resolution, is no more inferior to larger Icon models.

Conference rooms and boardrooms are the classic settings for video calls. These rooms, equipped with best-in-class video, let large teams connect and build relationships through regular, face-to-face business conversations. The Lifesize® Icon 600™ and Lifesize® Camera 10x™ are ideal for large meeting spaces and deliver an immersive experience that enhances engagement and productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

I am not particularly fond of receiving emails like:

"I'm reaching out because it looks like you'd recently done some research on Lifesize's video conferencing solutions. I've recently moved into the territory and was hoping to connect to see what was driving your interest. Are you available at 10am MT tomorrow to discuss your video needs?"

First of all: can't they check who we are before emailing us? Second, if he moved in our territory, maybe he would know we do not use AM/PM and MT... I actually really did not know what time this was. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

Look at the ease of use and quality of CAMERA!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Easy setups in small rooms:

Not because of the price but because the Icon 450 is an ideal ALL-IN-ONE-unit! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lifesize?

Video conferencing sure has come a long way. We no longer have to travel for quarterly or monthly meetings, we just start up our conference room and join the scheduled meetings. Sometimes I can't make it to the office, and I can join by phone or iPad, even from my car. I also love the chat function. We started to use it internally, but more and more we find ourselves video conferencing with customers and suppliers alike.

Since the last update of the app, we can now use the app on any personal computer as a dual display solution, which gives us the means to truly collaborate over vast distances. For example: we discuss current projects. Project files, such as Powerpoint files, Visio files, PDF's, project documentation. In our office we have the camera aimed at our touch screen, which also doubles as the presentation input for our icon. So the camera is aimed at this screen, which results in a very lively demonstration when the presenter is manipulating designs etc. The camera will capture a good image of the presenter, and on the secondary display, a perfect representation of the document that is being worked on is displayed.

What do you dislike about Lifesize?

Some customers that are using skype for business can't connect with us because it turns out they have not opened up their federation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lifesize:

Just try it! the trial is so easy to get started with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

At first we were looking for a way to cut the travel costs for recurring interregional meetings, but over the last years we have been using the app to video call and chat, instead of using the traditional phone. We feel our communication has become much more dynamic and direct. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
