Collaborate from anywhere! Whereby (formerly appear.in) is a collaboration tool for individuals and teams who want to host easy and reliable video meetings. All meetings are from your browser - no downloads, and no login for guests.
I really love the software and we're using it at picksaas to do video conferencing. The best thing about is it that everybody can enter with just one link, like the simplicity!
Pros:meetings in just one click, simple and user-friendly, screen sharing
Cons:none so far
Best video conference tools I've ever used! Skip those first 10 minutes of meetings on Skype that people just say "Can you hear me? How about now?", and just start talking!
Pros:Works perfectly, easy to use. Just start talking
Cons:Absolutely none
Super easy to use and best video tool for talking to people outside your team.
Pros:No logins, no downloads, no need to add external contacts
Cons:hmm...none
Using it with a team of 20+ across 2 offices.
Pros:Zero setup/no desktop client/just send link, has been stable for us for months
Cons:nothing major.
When there is a sound coming in from one person, other people's input volume is lowered. This is quite annoying because when there's a noise in your background, you can't hear other people talking because there is sound coming in from your mic (which is just a noise in the background). So you need to mute yourself when you are in a noisy environment.
Pros:customizable URL, just by signing up, you can own a URL
Cons:Too over-tech mic input algorithm.
Our team loves it because it's simple and works for everyone. I personally like that it shows all of the participants in the same size by default, instead of zooming just on the speaker and thumbnailing everyone else. That makes it feel more connected with the group when talking.
Pros:Simplest way to spontaneously video chat with your team, good audio/video quality, supplemented by a mobile app
Cons:Needs more stickers, limited to 12 participants
