User Testimonials
Cisco Business Edition 7000 (discontinued)EasyRetro
Likelihood to Recommend
The platform is perfectly suited for collaboration involving everything related to integrated voice and video systems. It is easily installed on physical servers and virtualized and can be accessed remotely. The BE 7000 modernized the infrastructure with voice-over IP and generates complete reports on the telephone and video usage of users in all the company's regions for internal control and auditing. The solution can be recommended for medium and large scenarios from 1000 users up to a limit of 5000 users.

There's just so much versatility with Easyretro that I can't think of where it couldn't be used. If you wanted to make a collage, I guess this board would be too structured for that but for most conversations in a business that require organization, this is the best tool for the job. Where EasyRetro really shines is allowing the feedback to be anonymous (Others do as well but most of them require some kind of registration).

Cons
  • The User interface of phone could be better and it can be more interactive. The options are complex.
  • The configuration part is tough as we need to select them manually through buttons which make it a difficult task.
  • If the bandwidth of network is low we may face some noise disturbance and jitter in voice.
  • There should be proper documentation available for configuration part so that anyone with good knowledge can do it.
