GlobalMeet Collaboration (discontinued) vs. Pexip

I would recommend the service to anyone who is in need of consistent, clear, and professional audio conferencing. I think PGi and GlobalMeet are clearly one of the leaders in the space. The only knock against the services are that they can be expensive long-term contracts where you're more likely to pay for more than you use. I believe smaller organizations or those with less of a need for audio conferencing may benefit by a pay-as-you-go plan which in my experience PGi has not offered.

There are many meetings that take place in our business and we also have many remote employees. Videxio allows everyone to participate and be part of a conference, which is much different than just being on the phone. Our weekly performance meeting is a must-attend event and Videxio makes it easier.

• Setting up the meetings only takes a few seconds. I value this function.
• Global set works in conjunction with Microsoft office. This makes integration very simple.
• The system is user friendly and easy to understand...even for those without a lot of experience.

Incentivized

• Interfaces seamlessly with Skype, Google Hangouts and Microsoft Teams.
• The ability to have two content items on the screen at one time, being video of the presenters and a sharescreen, or open document, is brilliant.
• Pexip Infinity is available as a full on-premises solution, which is great for a defence industry enterprise.

• As I mentioned before, it is not as convenient to use when sharing data as Teams so we tend to use Teams for sharing presentations.
• On occasion, there is an echo which makes it hard to hear others.
• I have noticed that when I use my computer as the device rather than my phone, it tends to drop more often than my phone (may be my internet connection).

• I am so grateful to have found the perfect video all tool I can’t recommend any improvements. But I know they are great listeners and will send any I think of in the future.

GlobalMeet is not a very good tool. There are better web meeting platforms available in the marketplace. The system is clunky, not intuitive, and experiences often technical issues. They have made updates recently but it is too little too late. It may be a good platform for smaller organizations with tighter budgets.

Interface is fairly intuitive. Ease of use is a big plus. Both presenters and users find it easy to learn, easy to understand and easy to remember. We've had very few issues with the system since beginning to utilize it.

We have never had an issue with the availability of GlobalMeet. It has always been available when we needed it.

For the most part GlobalMeet loaded everything quickly. The only problem that we had was when the whole company was on a training at one time, we had a hard time with screen sharing and the pages loading in a timely manner. Everything seemed to slow down when lots of people were on the system at once

As previously mentioned, I was in charge of facilitating a weekly meeting with 60 attendees. I had major issues with the screenshare crashing repeatedly during the meeting. I got in contact with a GlobalMeet Technician immediately. He was extremely responsive and worked with my technician to resolve all of the issues quickly. After his intervention, I never had the same issue again.

Pexip Infinity's customer support function deserves a full score for their work. The ironic thing is, I have never had to deal with them at all, which means that their entire development team is actually a support team because they have crafted a product that the client never has to talk to them about; it is just that good and works seamlessly. There are very few products out there that works as easily as Pexip Infinity.

GlobalMeet was easy to get set up with the company and starting to use.

Our small non-profit organization appreciates the ease of use of the platform for conference call needs. Other platforms can be much more complicated for users unfamiliar with conference call technology. We use it several times a month for committee meetings, regional rep check ins, and meetings with our board of directors.

I was not satisfied with the quality of the video GoToMeeting provided us. Moreover, my team didn’t find it easy to operate this software as it has a very tough and dry interface and above all the features GoToMeeting possesses were quite vague and we were not able to find them.

Ultimately, we found software that is perfect for our virtual connectivity.

This product seems to be able to handle the growing amount of work within our company without any problems.

• Unlike most conferencing software. Other users don't have to download GlobalMeet App and therefore it is easy to send meeting invite to clients.
• Attentively support system that responds fast to queries and this saves time for us.

Incentivized

• We were able to quickly reduce the backlog of video interview work that was stuck in queue.
• We wasted no time searching through the 30+ other competitors in this space, many of which we had already tried, because Videxio had every thing we could not find up until then.
• No negative impacts, in fact, because TrustRadius helped us find Videxio very quickly, we actually reduced the time it took to get our project back on track.
