What do you like best about Whereby?

What I like the most is that it is a great economic alternative compared to its competitors without this involving quality sacrifice. It is very easy and quick to use. You have only to give permission to the camera and micro and you are already working. Until not long ago, you didn't even have to register, nor does the person using the application have to do anything beyond entering the link and giving permissions to the camera and micro. That changed, and now the person who creates the room must register and send the link to the rest. How can you create your room with a unique URL? Well, as simple as registering, choose the name that interests you (what would be the "appear.in/tunombre", for example) you leave your mail, you get a code, you put it on your page ...

And voila, you already have your room reserved. You can include the link in any Calendar call or in the email you send when you start the videoconference. This is perfect if you want to leave your brand name reserved Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whereby?

It is a jewel to me, so I do not think of any major disadvantage because it has taken me out of more of a hurry where there was no way to connect to Skype. The screen sharing is perfect and also has chat, which seems silly, but it can save your life when the audio, for any reason, does not come out or if you want to send a link. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Whereby:

If you want to use it from your mobile, you have an application for Android and iOS (although as I said, the web is great on mobile.). For $ 0.99 you can have the Pro account, which includes up to 12 people per videoconference (compared to 4 of the free version), Up to 3 rooms that you can book with the name you choose (you could have for different departments or projects) You have more time to share screen (it has always earned me 20 minutes of the free version) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Although videoconferencing has been the most normal thing in the world for years, I have to confess that almost always that I had to do something with Skype or Hangouts I had a problem. Unless they are regular contacts, it is not uncommon for you or not to find the user you are looking for, or your partner does not have the client installed (in the case of Skype) or does not know where the call will arrive (in the Google Hangouts case)

This is added that in many business environments you can not install programs (which leaves Skype out of the game) or have certain Google tools blocked (usually Drive, but sometimes also Hangouts). So this tool helped us a lot when we want to make a video call or video conference without many complications! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Whereby?

No hassle. Easy to send link to my permanent private room to people in my network / prospects for last minute calls. Simple and easy interface. It works every time, fast. No waiting to update the client like Zoom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whereby?

The chat is not persistent (of course, since this is a dedicated, permanent 'room'). I wish callers would be prompted to save the chat content to the clipboard before exiting the call. Sometimes we shared a link or other info I'd like to refer to after the call ended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Quick provisioning of a link to a permanent room. No need to perform a client install. Perfect for ad-hoc "wait I will send you a link" situations. Easy to figure out by other users, even if it is their first time. The URL link to the permanent room is set by me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Whereby?

I love how easy it is to use and the good quality of video and audio. You just have to create an account and generate a link to share with your clients.

What do you dislike about Whereby?

It doesn't work well on some mobile devices. On some occasions, my clients cannot connect their camera or microphone, and this causes discomfort and delays the session. It would be a good idea if on the main screen, when logging in for the first time, instructions were given on how to perform the configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
