Jitsi has been a solid, no-cost option for handling everything from internal team meetings to calls with external partners and stakeholders, without needing a paid subscription or account creation to join. Being open-source gives us flexibility to self-host if needed for more control over data and privacy, which matters given some calls involve sensitive business discussions. Video and audio quality has been reliable for typical group sizes, and the one-click join via browser makes it easy for external participants to hop in without friction. Screen sharing and basic collaboration features cover what we need for most meeting types without feeling bloated with unnecessary extras. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Call quality and stability can degrade a bit with larger groups or less reliable internet connections, which becomes noticeable when several external participants join at once. Some of the more advanced features found in bigger platforms, like detailed analytics, breakout rooms, or deeper calendar integrations, are limited or require self-hosting effort to configure properly. The mobile app experience isn't as polished as the browser or desktop version, and self-hosting for more control adds operational overhead that not every team wants to take on just for basic meetings.

What I like most about Jitsi is its simple, user-friendly interface. It offers stable video and audio quality, makes it easy to set up meetings, and supports smooth collaboration features like screen sharing and chat. It also provides secure communication without requiring complex setup. It is convenient for team collaboration and remote meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Jitsi is that the call quality can occasionally become unstable during large meetings or low internet connectivity. Sometimes there are minor issues with audio synchronization and performance compared to other conferencing tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Jitsi because it offers a user-friendly interface that makes communication easy without requiring my clients to create an account. This is really helpful for remote communication. I also appreciate that it's fully open source and doesn't require an account to communicate, which provides a secure way to connect. Switching to Jitsi from Google Meet was great because I wanted a simpler solution that offered better privacy. Additionally, the initial setup was really easy.

Sometimes it has inconsistent video quality in just a little slower connection, and sharing screen is less smooth. Bandwidth adaptation for slower connections could be smarter. Mobile sharing could be improved, and having clearer connection quality indicators would be nice. More options in audio and video control, like manual bitrate control, would be beneficial.

What I value most about Jitsi is the complete infrastructure control paired with robust privacy and open-source flexibility — it aligns perfectly with our engineering protocols and strict GDPR standards at Celonis SE. The biggest advantage is being able to self-host entirely on our own AWS and Kubernetes stack. All meeting traffic, session data, and recordings stay within our EU-based environment, with zero third-party exposure. As a German enterprise tech company, this completely eliminates GDPR and data residency concerns, something mainstream commercial conferencing tools can’t match without complex, costly enterprise agreements. I also love that it’s fully browser-native. There’s no mandatory app download or forced account creation. Team members, remote engineers, and external contractors can join any meeting just by clicking a link. It cuts down on onboarding friction and works flawlessly for quick code reviews, ad-hoc technical syncs, and architecture discussions. On top of that, Jitsi has no per-user licensing fees. It lets us scale video collaboration across our large engineering team effortlessly, with no extra overhead or recurring costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Jitsi excels at privacy and self-hosting, it still has noticeable drawbacks for enterprise daily use. First, native enterprise integrations are extremely limited. It doesn’t connect seamlessly with our core workflow tools like Jira, Confluence, or our internal SSO platform. We can’t auto-sync meeting calendars or link meeting notes directly to project tasks, so all scheduling and documentation has to be done manually. Second, scalability for larger meetings needs heavy manual tuning. Small team syncs run smoothly, but once participant count hits 40 to 50+, our DevOps team has to manually adjust bridge settings and Kubernetes resource allocation. There’s no reliable out-of-the-box auto-scaling, which adds extra engineering workload for large technical workshops and cross-company sessions. Third, its API and workflow automation capabilities are fairly basic. The existing APIs work for simple use cases, but they lack advanced webhook triggers and flexible endpoints to automate routine tasks like bulk room creation, permission management, or log exporting. This forces us to build custom workaround scripts to fit our internal pipelines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As an IT professional, I have always search for similar platforms opposed to mainstream ie; Microsoft Teams etc. I either use Jitsi or Google Meets, both which has came a long way to be comparable to Teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using Jitsi for aver 5 years, we use to have bad lag when having online meetings exceeding a dozen or so people, now they have solved that issue and we recently had a 45 member meeting with no issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Jitsi is incredibly easy to use because you can join a call simply with a link, without needing to install anything, which saves us a lot of time. The room is set up quickly and the audio and video quality is quite good for a free tool. Additionally, it doesn't have time limitations like Zoom. I also appreciate that being open source and self-hosted offers a lot of control over the privacy of our calls, which is crucial for internal or sensitive conversations.

When there are calls with many people (more than 10 or 12), it starts to get complicated, it becomes somewhat slow. The recording features are somewhat basic compared to Zoom or Meet. And the mobile app sometimes has issues with the audio, it might connect to Bluetooth headphones and doesn't quite pick up the microphone properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s seamless and works out of the box. You just go to the website, choose a unique meeting name, and join.

With other providers, you often need authentication and extra steps that make getting started harder. On top of that, it works well on a low-bandwidth connection. I had to attend an academic interview with poor network conditions, and the interviewer suggested using Jitsi. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI can be made smoother, and modern for non techie guys to understand Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Jitsi for smooth video calling with my team. I like its customizable features like privacy control and voice control, which add to its flexibility. Jitsi is highly valuable as a free, open-source, and secure video conferencing platform that provides cost efficiency and accessibility without subscription fees. I appreciate that Jitsi offers cross-platform support, which makes it easy to join meetings via a web browser, and I don't need an account to use it. Jitsi's open-source nature and APIs make it highly customizable for developers looking to embed video directly into their applications. It's great that I can integrate it with tools like Slack, Microsoft Office 365, and Google Calendar. The ease of use and user-friendly setup of Jitsi make it really accessible, and I find it very useful that I can use it with different platforms like my React application.

Sometime it slow beyond the fast processing application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love Jitsi because it's easy and requires no sign-in. I can just create a meeting, share the link, and it's done. It's very fast with no need for downloads or logins, making collaboration pure, fast, and immediate. I appreciate how simple it is to share the link for easy collaboration, without needing to download anything or create an account. Jitsi is simple, small, easy, and very handy. The setup process is straightforward, just go to the site, create a link, and share it, which is quite easy to handle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Call stability, when large group meeting is held it lags and video streaming quality can be fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love using Jitsi for live broadcasting because it is easier and stable. The stability is crucial, especially since the Internet in Uganda isn't very strong. I've found that Jitsi maintains a stable video picture even when the signal is weak, which is really important for me. The setup is incredibly easy; you just connect with the person you want to share or watch with. It's simple compared to other platforms. The picture and sound quality are good too, so I haven't faced any problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The issue is that in Uganda, a few people know about Jitsi, and when sharing the link, people have to struggle to install it. They are not familiar with it. That's the only challenge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
