Pexip Connect

Avantages

Pexip is one of those tools that is nicely set up and developed, yet it still needs more users in order to reach its true potential and get developed more and better. The way the interface works is amazingly good and simple, yet it does the job very well and makes online meetings and webinars simple and enjoyable.

Inconvénients

The biggest con is that Pexip is not used by many people still. When you invite someone or a Pexip conference call, they will probably tell you that they need to activate it, register or install it on their device as it is not commonly used.

Avantages

There is no need to install software on the computer. HTML5 works, looks the same on both the mobile device and the browser. Supported by most browsers.

Inconvénients

I would like to see a large group of people, in large meetings it is necessary to see more than 8 pictures.

Avantages

The product was easy to use and connect with coworkers!

Inconvénients

The quality wasn’t the best, that would have been connection but it happened over multiple uses.

Avantages

Pexip is one of the apps that is not the most popular, but definitely should be. This app provides such an ease of use, variety of options and settings that it is a shame it is not very popular amongst common users. This is probably due to the fact that it is not included on new devices by default but it definitely should be. It provides stable meeting connection, easy file sharing, conferencing etc. on the highest level!

Inconvénients

There are no cons to Pexip except the fact that it is not very popular, so if you need to communicate or organize a meeting through this app, you will have to wait for people to download it and install it. But once they do, every meeting will be through Pexip for sure.

Avantages

Easy to start with, simple admin portal, flexible licensing, ...

Inconvénients

Reporting on usage could be more detailed, export of usage data is not possible in current version

Avantages

Videxio is a great product that I have used for over 2 years. They continue to evolve and are dedicated to a quality product. This service is the only service I would trust for the registration of my traditional video systems allowing me to join the Videxio cloud service or any service I wish. The additional bonus of this service is that dial in audio is included along with unlimited recording and streaming.

Inconvénients

The only negative I could mention here is the small development team they seem to have working on the product. I am sure this will change as the subscriber base increases but I wished the development side was able to respond faster at times.

Avantages

The ease of use. No only for folks who are subscribed to the service, but it's super easy for anyone / everyone you invite to a meeting. If you have a device with a mic and camera you're in, if only want to join via audio you're in! Very user friendly.

Inconvénients

There actually aren't any that I can think of. Prior to the latest GUI look and feel, the only thing I would have liked to have seen (and have it now! ) was the ability to pin and unpin the video window.

Avantages

The strong interorperbility and the customer driven approach. The Videxio team delivers the best in class feature lift.
The service delivers an ease of use experience, all the way from the client to the one button to join solution, enabling everybody to use video with ease.

Inconvénients

When calling a Videxio registred system from a Skype for Business, is it not possible to use the same SIP address as when you call from an other endpoint.

Avantages

Interop with Skype, Teams, Hangouts to Polycom & Cisco
HD Quality
Cloud security
QR code scanning to launch video calls
Simplicity
Reliability

Inconvénients

Nothing. Really. Seriously, it just simply works.

Avantages

Videxio is the secret sauce to a "any device, any endpoint" integrated video solution. Whatever your flavor of video endpoint Videxio will integrate it all together with an exceptional user experience. It seamlessly integrates Skype with non-Skype endpoints.

Videxio also can stream directly to YouTube for live viewing and recording "out of the box". The videos can be made private or public and watched at a later date.

I've also worked with videxio tech support and they have been very responsive, helpful and efficient. Their support gets two "thumbs up" from me.

Inconvénients

This is a tough one because it does so much already. Request your trial license and check it out for yourself.

Avantages

I like the ability to bring a legacy codec into Teams, Zoom, etc. Pexip allows you to let people who are use d to making a single button call for a codec and bring it into a Teams or Zoom call.
The software is easy to use. There is almost no learning curve for this.

Inconvénients

I don't really have a con for this other than that it is not as well known as Zoom or Teams.

Avantages

There are some great, unique features with the Pixip solution. The combination of dedicated application for the desktop and mobile, combined with really high quality WebRTC ensures that any meeting is easy to join. Simply have a link to click and you are in a meeting.

Add in the ability to call natively from Skype for Business and to connect standard room systems and there isn't anything that we can't connect. They have even innoated the ability to brin room systems into meeting without having to dail lengthy call strings that can confuse users and put them off booking the resource. The whole system is built on simplicity.

The Mobile application being a fully fledged endpoint is another strong point. Rather than being just a simple video add in or control for a third party, it allows you to join or make a video call from any network, wherever you are.

Inconvénients

Sharing content from iOS isnt available yet. As an Apple iPad Pro user, I tend to have most of my documents on my tablet, meaning that I have to email them to a desktop machine to share. This feature is on Android, but iOS is still pending.

Avantages

The developments which keeps on happening in existing Pexip S/W version to overcome any bugs and provide new features in upcoming releases is one of the key point .Above that ongoing development in terms of integration with other Partners is most valuable feature.

Inconvénients

Conference setup through Skype have conference ID. As of now, the only way to search conference ID is to create local policy script.
Create a local policy profile (Call Control > Policy Profiles) and add the script to "Service configuration policy", then apply the policy profile to the locations.

Can we simplify in the upcoming releases to avoid such script .

Avantages

What I like most about this software is that I trust it and it’s pedigree. There is a core and a spine that runs through Pexip that has always been both pioneering and disruptive. Add to that the fact that their roots trace back to the very beginnings of video conferencing as a service through product and software development. The retained knowledge combined with a passion for innovation define them.

Inconvénients

They are not as feature rich as many of the competition. This is more due to their exacting standards and reading and concentrating on where the market needs return which has always been their way. Their attention to detail means that they release when ready having predetermined and measured impact.

Avantages

Unlike older hardware solutions which were inflexible on the number and physical location of ports, with Pexip you can spin it up where needed, and only pay for ports you need to concurrently use.

Inconvénients

Its still on-premise and most companies are looking at cloud. Hopefully their acquisition of Videxio fixes this one.

Avantages

One of the only true interoperability providers out there. PEXIP can create order and ease in a confusing world. We did reviews\POC's with many in this space and none provided the level of features that PEXIP does and they do it at a great price point. Small town comment has to do with quickness of response from support and dealing with that same core team.

Great support (core team handles all support cases)
Ease of use
Runs as unix appliance (stable)
easy to upgrade
great mgmt. interface

Inconvénients

Sometimes they many have too many options. In a world of non IT people I have seen people get confused if you give them too much. Simple is best. This has improved with the new webapp with version 20

Avantages

The cloud service, the self hosted Infinity are very reliable and well supported. Quality of the services is extremely high and Pexip will do whatever they can to keep services running and secure. If customers have issues 99.8% of the time they are not related to the service but to end-user or end-customer network issues.

Inconvénients

because the main focus is reliability and security the out of the box functionality is sober and doesn't evolve fast. It's a trade off between stability and functionality

Avantages

The feature set is what you would expect but interop with both Microsoft Teams and Google Meet adds unique opportunities for those who wants both premium video and audio quality as well as security and scalability but also needs to be compatible with some of the most common platforms.

Inconvénients

In comparison to Cisco Webex and Zoom, there is of course a lack of tools for webinars and classes 'out of the box', but that is just if those features are mission critical.

Avantages

The flexibility is outstanding. You are able to communicate with most video endpoint solutions without a hassle

Inconvénients

Really nothing. This solution is outstanding

Avantages

Since the majority of organizations are using three or more video conferencing solutions, anyone who needs to integrate a mixed VC environment (Cisco, Teams, Polycom, Avaya) and preserve their legacy video endpoints with cloud registrations, will find a high return on their investment with Pexip.

Users can integrate Microsoft Teams and Google Hangouts, and allow their customers or vendors to join on their browsers. Add recording, and We RTC security (no plug-ins) the service is an all-around solution that pays for itself very quickly.

Inconvénients

Although it is interoperable with Teams and Hangouts, I would like to see development of Zoom interoperability -- though I know they are their biggest competitors.

Avantages

The biggest thing with Pexip is the ability to communicate across various platforms. The bridging of multiple hardware and software based systems allows organizations to communicate both internally and externally with anyone. This is paramount in an industry with so many options and Pexip is key to providing this flexibility.

Inconvénients

While it's not a problem, by any means, the chat functionality is not as robust as it could be. It's still a great recent addition to the platform just very basic in functionality.

Avantages

I like its simplicity. It is a very easy software to configure. I think the low demand for bandwidth for videos is excellent. I was able to do conferences with a resolution of 720p with less than 384Kbps with smooth and uninterrupted audio. I tried the operation in its iOS version and it worked very well, it is in fact very similar to the desktop version and the web version, something that is very positive for the purpose of organizing a meeting with participants who are new using the software, since it is Very simple to explain how to use it. In addition, the software is intuitive. Very light in memory and processor resources.

Inconvénients

I do not like the operation with some video conference equipment, for example the YEALINK, the remote rooms of PEXIP with this equipment can delay the beginning of the meeting since it remains "asleep". Configurations in the firewall can be a problem, since it varied from one version to another. It does not appear in the list of applications allowed in Forticlient, it must be added manually.

Avantages

I use Pexip as a Service on a daily basis.
The quality is excellent and it is extremely ease to use.
I also like its compatibility with a variety of collaboration platforms (such as skype for business and Teams)

Inconvénients

The main thing i didn't like was the inability to change camera source whilst in a call. However, this has recently been fixed with an upgrade to the service

Avantages

Quality of the calls, ease of use for end users, branding portal and support

Inconvénients

There is no ability to turn entry and exit tones off and on from the GUI

Avantages

Compatibility with standards based VC, Microsoft Skype for Business & Teams, Google Hangouts.

Inconvénients

Incompatibility with TIP protocol. Other than that, no cons.
