Web conferencing platform that helps businesses of all sizes with meeting scheduling, custom meeting links, screen sharing, visual roster, recording, online chat, text messaging, and more.
Easy to use, great for video calls, good audio. Ability to share presentations and have multiple users at one time into one call.
It can just make it somewhat annoying on trying to login quickly if there's another update to install or if you need to re-enter credentials. But this is a very minor concern.
The ease of scheduling Vidyo rooms as well as the video quality are top differentiators for the solution and give it a competitive advantage in the market.
It also has a tendency to fail when it comes to talking into the computer and doesn't relay voices over.
It is very easy and effective in helping us as a multi-site organization to connect and have more effective communication through video.
Cannot text or leave messages to user while they are offline.
It's super easy to navigate for sharing screens, and the chat feature is simple but enables high engagement. The quality has always been a highlight as well.
No conference phone line alternative. No chat function included in basic package.
It seems simple and easy to use, it shows who are expected to join a call which is very helpful. Video quality also good.
Sometimes it lags out for apparently no reason but that is very rare and it seems Amazon has fixed it.
The meeting quality, both audio and video, was very good. All of the basic functionality was there too.
Not a whole lot to complain about and the one thing that stuck out to me might just be a lack of familiarity.
Sound quality is absolutely amazing while I'm using it on WiFi connection. To join the meeting subscription is not required.
How is a company supposed to do business with no phone system. We have not switched to another product YET...we have not phone to call other products.
The features are fast, secure and useful. It is free, I don't know if it has paid plans but even the free version works fine for almost all needs.
Chime has no option to set it up as a default.
Praveen K.: Hey, my name is Praveen and I work as a systems administrator and I rate five out of five for Amazon Chime. For more videos like this, click below. Before Amazon Chime, we tried Skype for Business and Cisco WebEx, and also we tried Microsoft Teams. But all these three needs like on premises, which cost us for the servers and the licensing costs for the product. Coming to the Amazon Chime, we can build this on the cloud and the maintenance cost is also very low for Amazon Chime. Yeah, we ran into issues when we are using Cisco WebEx, like we need to upgrade for security patches and then sometimes it slows down and sometimes it gets freezed. So all these are like huge disadvantages when we are using the Cisco WebEx, but the use of Amazon Chime, like it's reliable, faster, and you won't have any network latency issues when we are using Amazon Chime because everything is on the cloud. Unlike the traditional method of building the servers and installing the app, it's complicated when we are using other stuff. Coming to Amazon Chime, if you can pick up a server and application on the same thing, like it's a single step process to install, and it's very easy. If you are large enterprise or a medium enterprise and struggling with the network latency and upgrades of Cisco WebEx or Skype, I completely recommend Amazon Chime because the servers will be taken care of Amazon and even application can also be taken care by them. So you won't need to bother about patching and slowness and network issues.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
