What do you like best about Whereby?

It is well-organized, incredibly quick, and uses almost no computer resources. Because it's so easy to use, you'll use it every day and maybe spend the entire day online. It promotes the construction of assembly areas and unique connections. It's easy to use, and once you greet a customer in your room, more explanation is not needed. It is easy to implement on our systems. Also, the customer support is very efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whereby?

Sometimes the associations are sporadic. You still need the app in order to share your screen on a multipurpose device. As of right now, integration with Viewpoint or Google Calendar would be a nice bonus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

My intelligence with Whereby has therefore been beneficial. It has quickly become my preferred option for virtual meetings, and I have no doubt that it will be a useful tool for your business as well. Working in-person sessions with people across the country moves my life forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Whereby?

The APIs from Whereby are clean and you need very little code to embed whereby into the mobile app. Enabling different video features like adaptive bitrate and customized branding is simple enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whereby?

The part I hated the most was no native support for mobile. At least for use, we use React Native and are using WhereBy with the help of a react webview - which makes the experience for the end user less seamless. So, while it is a quick and easy way to embed livestreaming etc into the app, the downside is having to interact with the player while in the webview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use it to provide online classes and tutoring to over 2000 students via our mobile app. The primary issue we face was students often have lower bandwidth or are in less network reception areas, however adaptive bit rate and reliability form whereby serves good. Also given the compliances built in into the platform, it is just one less thing to worry about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
