"Awful technology (or at least how we have implemented)"
It is impossible to stay connected from a laptop to the screen. It crashes every 5 minutes and there is no ability to share as a second monitor.

What do you like best about Mersive Solstice?

Mersive Solstice is an enterprise-level solution for wireless access and screen mirroring which is capable of large-scale deployment. In that sense, it does it's job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mersive Solstice?

The workflow to install the required software, as well as the hardware requirements for the platform, are prohibitive to wide-scale use outside of a really regimented deployment. If your institution all uses the same hardware and is able to deploy all the software and drivers ahead of time then it may not be an issue, but if there is variability in what the users will have as far as hardware specs then Solstice can be quite unpredictable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mersive Solstice solving and how is that benefiting you?

At the time of installation, all of the main players for screencasting did not have a scalable enterprise-level solution. As such there is room for a product like Mersive Solstice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mersive Solstice?

Customizable back end, nice looking app with a mobile app version. Simple interface without too many options on the front end. Connecting is quick and easy. The moderator mode is robust, but glitchy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mersive Solstice?

Mersive conference doesn't work, the way it virtualizes the call makes it impossible except on very high end devices. Constant crashes, mouse stops working, disconnections, camera stops working, etc. Warnings about system usage because of extremely high CPU usage even on a fairly robust computer. App on PC can be glitchy, names being wrong, crashing, freezing, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mersive Solstice solving and how is that benefiting you?

Wireless screen sharing for students is nice, not having to have students come up to the front of the room to share. Having multiple people connected to a device at one time to share content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mersive Solstice?

Everything, constantly drops connections and crashes. We had 15 conference rooms set up with the mersive solstice pods and users complained every day. We ended up switching to ClickShare devices and have not had one complaint since then. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mersive Solstice?

We use Solstice pods at work to project onto two large screens. They are easy to connect to once you download it. All you have to do is open the app and type in the 4 digit code. Also, I like that when you are sharing your screen that the disconnect button is very compact. It does not take up much of the screen... so it does not interfere with other content that you have up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mersive Solstice?

I do not like that you don't have the option to pause your screen. When I am giving a lecture, I sometimes need to hide the screen from students (if I need to check a grade or want to do work while they try a problem on their own). The only option that comes up is to stop sharing screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mersive Solstice:

I would recommend downloading the app to make connecting to the display easier. If you don't download the app, you have to enter the IP address into your internet browser each time. If you have the app, you just open it and enter in the 4 digit pin to connect. The first time is not at easy because you have to enter in the IP address. Also, I would recommend having all your content ready because once you connect, you cannot just quickly hide your screen, you have to disconnect completely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mersive Solstice solving and how is that benefiting you?

The benefits are that students can see the lectures on the large projection screens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mersive Solstice?

I love how easy it is to use. It's so intuitive. And unlike other screen sharing services my company has used, Solstice has never let me down. It never stops sharing in the middle of the meetings, there is no lag, and the picture is always clear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mersive Solstice?

I don't like that I can't pause my screen in meetings. Sometimes I need to check my email which is something not everyone needs to see. It sounds simple, but having the ability to do that would be a game changer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mersive Solstice solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use this service whenever I am presenting to my clients or in an internal meeting with coworkers to ensure we viewing the same material. It comes in handy when brainstorming and reviewing documents as a team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mersive Solstice?

The software is user friendly, secure, and powerful. Individuals can easily figure out how to connect from their device of choice. Content streams pretty seamlessly, even when sharing multiple items. No dongle is required, meaning there is nothing that can walk off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mersive Solstice?

The system requires a hard-wired network connection. You cannot use the system in wifi only spaces. Even though you are purchasing the device, it requires regular updates. Once the warranty expires, Mersive requires that you pay to renew the warranty in order to get the newest updates and support newer devices.

The other major downside is the lag between audio and video content. It can be very distracting and downright jarring, especially when watching video of people talking. Other wireless solutions do a better job of syncing up the audio and video content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mersive Solstice:

Make sure you are taking into account the long term costs. Once you've purchased the product, you're handcuffed to purchasing regular updates in order to continue using the device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mersive Solstice solving and how is that benefiting you?

Collaboration, Presentation, Events.

This software is used in both academic and event spaces. In classrooms, students and professors can share content in an easily accessible manner. In event spaces, our presenters can use the system to present to attendees, or collaborate for interactive meetings. Our clients love the flexibility, and we love that we can control the system from anywhere in the room. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
