[openstack-dev] Asking for suggestion of video conference tool for team and webinar

[Trinh Nguyen]

Hi,

I tried several free tools for team meetings, vPTG, and webinars but there
are always drawbacks ( because it's free, of course). For example:

   - Google Hangout: only allow a maximum of 10 people to do the video calls
   - Zoom: limits about 45m per meeting. So for a webinar or conference
   call takes more than 45m we have to splits into 2 sessions or so.

If anyone in the community can suggest some better video conferencing
tools, that would be great. So we can organize better communication for our
team and the community's webinars.

Many thanks,

I don't know how the cost structure works for Bluejeans, but I've found it
works very well for calls with many people on video. I typically have calls
with 14+ people nearly everyone has their video enabled without a problem.
The limiting factor is really if one participant has limited or somewhat
lossy connectivity, but it appears they have been working to make that
experience better.

Just for the record it has a limit of 100 connections[1] before you need to
use 'primetime'.

Yours Tony.
