AnyMeeting, professional and easy to use platform

Pros

  • Easy to set up a meeting.
  • Easy to record a call for reference by members who could not make the meeting live.
  • Easy to host a meeting.
  • The reminders that are automatically sent are wonderful to make sure everyone arrives on time to a call/meeting.
  • The reminders have sufficient and easy to follow directions to attend a meeting, even for a first time user.

Cons

  • It could be clearer, from an admin standpoint, which meeting options allow you to record, prior to setting up the meeting. I don't use it frequently enough to remember which type of meeting will allow me to record, and it takes an extra minute to figure this out when I schedule meetings ahead of time.

Return on Investment

  • It has made it very easy to hold strategy calls with clients who want a recorded call to reference in the future.

AnyMeeting Pro: Take a meeting anywhere!

Pros

  • Easy interaction of those attending the meeting. As long as those on the call are observant it is very easy to wait your turn to ask questions and not talk over each other.
  • Opting in for video and or just audio on the meeting is also a plus.
  • Quality of the video is great. The audio is also flawless.

Cons

  • I am not sure if this is an option. Allowing those with low bandwidth to be able to still participate in the meeting without impacting the flow.
  • Most issues that I have experienced all had to deal with bandwidth. But this is an issue across the platforms of video conferencing. Just like streaming movies, there should be a way to still attend without buffering and causing disruption during meetings.

Return on Investment

  • I was told by our purchasing agent that the costs was affordable. We still keep the software license on hand in case our current application is not performing.
  • Kept moral up when we needed it most by connecting faces away from the office.

Other Software Used

Skype for Business (formerly Lync), Microsoft Teams

Usability

AnyMeeting AnyTime

Pros

  • AnyMeeting does not require you to set up a different link for every scheduled call.
  • AnyMeeting works on any platform.
  • AnyMeeting does not require you to start the web agent in order to simply have a conference call.

Cons

  • Since it doesn't require a new scheduled meeting for every call, it doesn't have unique URLs or meeting rooms. This is a blessing and a curse, since if you have back to back meetings and one rund long, the person from a different meeting might accidentally log on to your previous one.
  • There are a few delays during a call for voice and data from time to time

Return on Investment

  • AnyMeeting made it easier and faster for me and my team to set up online meetings and conference calls, thus saving quite a bit of time.
  • Due to some over runs of meetings, I have to have a back up service just in case.
