"Lightweight, Fast Meetings with Crystal-Clear Screen Sharing"
5/5
What do you like best about OctaMeet?

What stood out to me is how lightweight and quick it feels compared to other meeting tools I’ve used. Joining meetings is straightforward—no long loading time or unnecessary steps. I also like the screen sharing quality; it stays clear even when I’m presenting detailed documents, which is really important for my work. The interface is clean, so I don’t have to search around for basic controls like mute, video, or chat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

One thing I’ve noticed is that it doesn’t yet have as many advanced features as some bigger platforms. For example, managing large meetings or webinars feels a bit limited. Also, sometimes notifications (like someone joining or leaving) can be easy to miss, especially if you’re deeply focused on presenting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Smooth Meetings with Quality Features"
5/5
What do you like best about OctaMeet?

I like the quality of the experience in general and also the poll and survey sharing, which are valuable because they give me quick and convenient feedback from our team without our members fearing negative feedback. I also appreciate the integration with Google Calendar and Outlook to set meeting dates. The more flexible pricing structure that OctaMeet provides was a reason for our team to switch from Google Workspace. Setting it up was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

I feel like the screen space can become slightly crowded but this is only when you are learning the ins and outs of OctaMeet. I believe this issue solves itself with continued use and learning the system. Possibly more upfront directions at the beginning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Instant Meetings, Needs Better Host Controls"
4/5
What do you like best about OctaMeet?

I like the instant meeting feature in OctaMeet. Just click on start meet, and one more step for audio and camera permissions, and you are good to go. It's pretty easy to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

From the perspective of a first-time user, it might be difficult to find the controls. The new user might find it tough to locate controls such as the invite link, and they don't have host controls, so it may create a problem for official meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Meetings Solution, But Limited Annotation Tools"
3/5
What do you like best about OctaMeet?

I like OctaMeet's stability and ease of use for client and team meetings. The audio and video quality are consistently reliable, and screen sharing works smoothly even when presenting large ad creatives or reports. Joining meetings is simple for clients, with no complicated setup required. It helps us maintain a professional, seamless experience for client presentations and campaign reviews, which is critical in our advertising work. I also appreciate how quick and intuitive the platform is to start and manage meetings, allowing us to focus on collaboration instead of troubleshooting technical issues. Additionally, the screen-sharing and presentation mode work extremely well for reviewing high-resolution ad creatives, videos, and campaign dashboards. There's almost no lag or quality loss, letting us show clients our work exactly as intended. The initial setup of OctaMeet was really straightforward and simple for our advertising team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

I find the annotation and feedback tools during screen sharing in OctaMeet to be quite limited. When reviewing ad creatives, we often need to mark, highlight, or draw directly on designs to give clear feedback, but the current tools are too basic for detailed creative reviews. It would be helpful to have more complete annotation tools like text boxes, arrows, shapes, highlighters, and erasers that are easy to access while screen-sharing. Additionally, having the ability to draw or write freely on the screen would let us sketch quick ideas, circle elements, or note changes directly on creative assets during client reviews.

"User-Friendly and Cost-Effective Meeting Solution"
0.5/5
What do you like best about OctaMeet?

I appreciate OctaMeet's clean and user-friendly interface. It's really straightforward, allowing you to schedule or join a meeting in just a few clicks, which is great for teams that don't want to deal with complex settings. The stable audio and video quality are reliable, even for medium-sized groups, which is crucial for our regular team meetings. Screen sharing works smoothly, which is essential for presentations, demos, or walkthroughs. I also find the AI-powered features like AI-based meeting summaries and recordings very helpful for saving time when reviewing discussions or sharing notes with teammates who couldn't attend. Being cross-platform accessible on the web, desktop, and mobile increases its usability for remote or hybrid teams. What I like most about OctaMeet is that it focuses on doing the core things well—easy setup, reliable meetings, and practical collaboration tools—without overwhelming users with unnecessary complexity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

OctaMeet currently lacks some advanced meeting controls like detailed participant moderation, built-in breakout rooms, and custom branding options, which can make it less ideal for large webinars or enterprise-level use. Some users feel the interface could be more polished, with a few navigation elements not being intuitive and certain settings being buried or inconsistent across desktop and web. While OctaMeet generally performs well, video can lag or pixelate and audio can sync poorly on weaker internet connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

"Streamlined Communication with User-Friendly Interface"
4/5
What do you like best about OctaMeet?

I use OctaMeet mainly for online meetings and team discussions. What I like most about OctaMeet is how easy it is to join and start meetings without technical hassle. The video and audio quality are generally stable, and screen sharing works smoothly, which is very helpful during work discussions. I also appreciate the simple interface because it doesn’t feel overwhelming even for less technical users. The initial setup of OctaMeet was quite easy. Creating an account and starting meetings didn’t take much time, and the interface felt straightforward from the beginning. The transition was smooth, and most team members adapted quickly without much training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

One area where OctaMeet could improve is performance on slower internet connections, as video or audio can occasionally lag. Sometimes meetings can take a little longer to load compared to other platforms. It would also be great to see more advanced collaboration features, like better in-meeting file sharing or integration with more work tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile Meeting Solution with Minor UI Hiccups"
4.5/5
What do you like best about OctaMeet?

I use OctaMeet as my go-to video conferencing and virtual collaboration platform, especially for remote meetings, team calls, presentations, and education sessions. It's designed as an all-in-one online meeting solution that works well for both personal and professional use. I like the integrated screen sharing with real-time chat inside meetings. I also find storing meetings for review later and having controlled access and permissions great for documentation, reference, and accountability. It provides a stable platform for video and audio meetings, keeping the conversation smooth even with multiple participants. The initial setup was very easy, comfortable, and easily accessible, which I appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

I dislike occasional bugs and UI glitches with OctaMeet. There are rendering issues on certain screens and language display problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I like the video call quality."
4.5/5
What do you like best about OctaMeet?

The platform has a pretty good resolution, even on slower connections, which is a major plus for me. Unlike other apps, I haven't had any lag or disconnections during long calls, which is vital for my meetings.

OctaMeet also has a very clean and intuitive design. From the start, I felt comfortable navigating the interface, without the need for tutorials or guides. The screen sharing options are simple, and you can choose to share only a specific app, which I find extremely useful when you want to prevent others from seeing your personal tabs or apps. Additionally, the calendar integration is excellent: it syncs with Google Calendar, and invitations are sent directly from the platform without having to do anything extra. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OctaMeet?

The only thing I dislike is that in meetings with many people, managing participants can become somewhat complex. Although it has options for managing microphones and cameras, I've found it sometimes difficult to quickly find someone in a large meeting to speak to them directly, especially if they're not on your main screen. It doesn't have the fluid "gallery" view found on other platforms, which can make interaction a bit difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
