The solution also has a straightforward configuration.""The UI is user-friendly and very good overall.""The share screen option available during conferences is one of the best features of Cisco Meeting Server.""Cisco Meeting Server is an easy and less complex solution.""You can use the Cisco Meeting Server to set up conference calls and virtual meetings. Those are the two primary functions of Meeting Server. Most people in the company are using Microsoft Teams, so we only use Meeting Server when we have an internal meeting for all staff."

"I like the user interface. There aren't too many buttons that the audience will have to fiddle with."

More IBM Cloud Video Pros →

Cons
"In Cisco Meeting Server, GUI is an area of concern where improvements are required.""A few features are missing on the Meetings app, like a recording function. My understanding is that you need to buy a separate recording solution. It's modular, so you have to enable some functions if you want to use them. For example, we had to enable the Mood function. Recording is the primary feature we'd like to see in the app.""This is a difficult solution to install and it should be made easier.""What would make Cisco Meeting Server better is integrating it with Zoom and Teams so that you can connect or make a call through any of the two third-party solutions.""Cisco Meeting Server should include a feature to control another user's screen during a remote session."

More Cisco Meeting Server Cons →

"They should improve the registration gateway. Currently, you can't do a pre-event registration that's straightforward. You have to do an API to integrate. It would be a lot easier if they had that."
