    If you use Microsoft collaboration tools then Lifesize Share is a great fit for you as it integrates well with their collaboration ecosystem. We found it easy to set up and very easy to administrate. It definitely makes everyone at the conference room table be seen and heard by others during the session.

    User friendly, reliable and inclusive to remote audiences. The product grows organically for us which speaks for itself ; the business at sites we could not equip with our initial investments requests it. We have made the choice of Zoom rooms 5 years ago and it is still one our our star products supporting frictionless collaboration.

    • Support is prompt, but not always the most immediately knowledgable or helpful.
    • Admin portal is convoluted. There's gotta be a better way to assign scheduling permisissions.
    • Zoom account managers are constantly being reassigned. It is nearly impossible to keep track of who presently is our account manager. When we were going through the process of looking into Zoom Phone, our manager was literally switched twice, resulting in us working with three total managers during that two-month process.

    Usability
    Lifesize
    We found that employees could use Lifesize Share without any prior training as long as we created "cheat sheets" to leave in each conference room where the equipment is installed.

    User friendliness (experience very similar to the already familiar Zoom app), consistency of the UX across locations and manufacturers. Screen sharing is made super easy (proximity). Zoom rooms support strategic needs for Hybrid work and reduced travels. Backend admin interface is simple (that's good) and provides useful dashboards for trend analysis.

    Both the initial installation and any ongoing support went very well. The support personnel was very knowledgeable, thorough, and professional. We were very pleased with how quickly any questions were answered and that very few incidents reoccurred.

    It is nice to implement, easier than other solutions and in my opinion, other solutions could be harder to implement. I was doing some demos for other software with other companies and I realized that the way of work is more difficult to implement and probably to maintain, at least in my opinion.

    I personally think Zoom Rooms is superior to Teams. I have setup 3 or 4 Zooms Rooms for my organisation and it is pretty straightforward to do without any formal training or education on Zoom Rooms. My experience with Teams was the opposite. A horrible interface and options deliberately hidden away in menus levels deep. On top of which, Zoom Room outperforms Teams Rooms in both video and audio. On the desktop, Teams is a bloated app whereas, in my experience, Zoom Rooms works well.

    • Great value for money as used it more than planned after installation.
    • Finding the use of screen share and whiteboards is becoming very popular and meant we wanted a larger screen for this. ;-)
