Pexip Connect

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

The product was easy to use and connect with coworkers!

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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!

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

Nothing. Really. Seriously, it just simply works.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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 .

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

Really nothing. This solution is outstanding

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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)

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

The quality of the service is second to none. I have yet to have a call where the quality was less than stellar and I am on several hours of video per week. Having the ability to connect up to 50 other users to my personal room is more than enough and quality never suffers. There is nothing worse than having a video call where everyone is buffering and no one knows how to join the call. There are also many platforms to join from - web browser, app, or client.

Nachteile

If I have to have a complaint it is the it can sometimes be too easy to use. There are many times where I think, "It can't be that easy!" so I'll make it more complicated than it is.

Vorteile

I absolutely love the agnostic approach Pexip is taking to truly offer a connect to anyone from anywhere approach. Most importantly is their Microsoft Teams capability with so many of my customers, and I believe the market as a whole are strategically road-mapped to migrate to Microsoft Teams. Currently, there are only three cloud interop providers officially certified to support Microsoft Teams integration and I feel Pexip does it best.

Nachteile

At the moment, its unidirectional into the MS Teams environment. Once, Pexip supports bi-directional calling between the Teams and traditional VC environments, I think you will be hard pressed to find any cons.

Vorteile

The simplicity. I work in a remote team and the possibility to just share a link and then my colleges or customers can just click the link and get into the meeting makes it efficient to use. I now use less time on travel and my meetings are more efficient than earlier.
And I also want to mention the screen sharing that is of very high quality and easy to use.

Nachteile

This is a very hard question to answer really. But if I have to point out something I do miss a chat function. However, Videxio has told us that they are working on this.

Vorteile

Simple, all can join quickly and easily. All I have to do is send a link and any number of people can join the call.

Nachteile

Not much to say in a con format - internet glitches can be an issue but not the fault of Videxio. I really dont have any issues.

Vorteile

The simplicity and ease of use as well as the capability to join from any device or platform

Nachteile

Plug-in for content sharing in Chrome, would like to see a version free of this

Vorteile

Ease of deployment, fixed cost, continued development, great interoperability across other devices and business platforms....simple to re-create the physical meeting from anywhere !!

Nachteile

Nothing at the moment...?...……………………………...

Vorteile

Pexip is a very well engineered product with software that is easily configured. It runs well in lots of different configurations because it is well thought out and tested thoroughly. The most needed features are close to the beginning of the configuration pages and the defaults are selected to already fit most situations.

Nachteile

I have heard that the H.323 feature set is pretty small on Pexip, but I still have customers that use H.323. Even though H.323 is far less popular now and probably will only become less popular for video over time, I would like to see a few more features there. Here is why, I sometimes see the Pexip bridge as a Rosetta Stone between all popular video systems and including older systems is sometimes easier if you have a lot of H.323 features.

Vorteile

Extremely easy to use, great interoperability across devices, very powerful with up to 50 participants on video calls.

Nachteile

The Videxio video conferencing service does exactly what it claims to do - I really couldn't fault it!

Vorteile

Great software, the agility it provides to allow our clients to connect from any device is market changing

Nachteile

What is not to like about the flexible on-premise and cloud architecture

Vorteile

Interchangeability with other video conferencing devices along with recording and streaming are significant positives for the Videxio products

Nachteile

The Videxio product is a great evolving product, hope to have IM and the ability to monitor bandwidth statistics during a call as well as change camera and audio devices during a call.

Vorteile

Connectivity towards SfB, other SIP based video solution.

We could make a call to our VRM´s and then have our VRM´s to automatically call hardware video endpoints.

Nachteile

Hm, could not come up with anything, compared to what this is meant to be.

Vorteile

Broad range of interoperability with other video platforms. Very easy to use. Can dial in from various devices. Content sharing.

Nachteile

Couldn't really fault it. It just works.

Vorteile

The system is simple and easy to use, always improving

Nachteile

The support in a live conference, is difficult to reach

Vorteile

Great flexibility, superb interoperability, easy integration to different enterprise environments.

Nachteile

On prem solution too pricey for small companies.

Vorteile

The quality of video meetings has been super important for us. We had tried other video apps or software, but even if they were easy to use, poor quality video and audio would regularly let us down and reduce the effectiveness of our meetings.

But we have now gone from only really using video when there was no other choice for a meeting, to relying on video heavily pretty much every day to connect our offices across Scandinavia, and more and more with clients as well.

Nachteile

There is not currently a chat feature to support the video collaboration. However, they have told us chat should be available very soon.

Vorteile

Its works. Easy to use. If you konow what to to easy to manage

Vorteile

It is built for Videoconferencing- registers the endpoints... much less dependent on the web- the coverage in China is robust as many of our customers have locations there

Nachteile

The Videxio story has to be told for other people to fully grasp its advantages too often compared to cheaper alternatives- look behind the curtain and Videxio excels...

Vorteile

Easy to use and High quality. Interoperbility the best we have seen in this marked

Nachteile

Nothing really. The service delivers more than promised

Vorteile

Easy to use, Good quality audio and video, No errors.

Nachteile

Not all endpoints are supported for the automatic set-up tool. (endpoint activation)

Vorteile

Ease of use. Perfect interoperability. Pexip makes communication with anyone easy!

Nachteile

nothing, Pexip has changed my ecosystems to work more effectively, very happy customer

Vorteile

It is very versatile and works in almost every environment.
We like it that our clients can call into our "Room" with their Skype for Business accounts.

Nachteile

Sometimes I get disconnected from the call, but you just need to call back into the room to get back on.

Vorteile

YouTube publishing to increase the users & Manage Sessions & the 3 levels of security, lock, closing and host or guest pin

Nachteile

Chat to instant messaging to communicate on the moment, the 512 with infrastructure, how to handle or admin better

Vorteile

Simplicity of the user actions when joining a meeting and navigating the software interface through the WebRTC Client

Nachteile

Haven't yet implemented a way to change the Video Screen layout to show the traditional 4 or 6 images in large format - this MUST come to the product!

Vorteile

The ease of use being able to join with only a few clicks of the mouse from my desktop.

Nachteile

the ability to access settings to make sure the right mic and camera were selected.

Vorteile

Great interoperability with standards based and proprietary Microsoft systems. Love the QR code reader too

Nachteile

Video quality is 720p rather than 1080p.
