Roam Reviews & Product Details

I like that Roam can handle everything I currently use multiple apps for, including Krisp, Loom, Webinars and Zoom, all for one low price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are still a few features that could use improvement, but they’re releasing updates regularly, which shows they’re focused on delivering an even better product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I LOVE the AI Assistant, it is like a real personal assistant, it schedules meeetings, follows up with people on work and even tells me when they've completed the task. I like the ability to knock on people's doors and just meet with them randomly. With ROAM, I can simply look up, see that other people are around, and click to enter their room, making it more effective to start talking. It helps me feel connected to my remote team members. The initial setup of ROAM was very easy and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the messaging threads on the left could be organized better. And also, the chat buttons are too difficult to use sometimes. But outside of that, everything else is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I truly love Roam. It's purpose-built for remote teams, and it helps us feel more connected than any other communication platform I've used. It replaces Slack and Zoom, but it goes beyond that to help us feel like a cohesive organization. Since most companies are already familiar with videoconferencing and instant messaging, I will focus on the other elements that make it a great tool.

Every employee has an "office", and the door knock feature creates an audio connection if the receiving party accepts the knock. It feels like a phone call, though it does support screen sharing. It's great for quick questions that are better to talk through but do not need a dedicated meeting.

We have "rooms", which are essentially evergreen videoconferencing destinations. I can ask a colleague to jump in one of these rooms without having to generate a link.

It's easy to see who is meeting with who, who is actively logged on, etc. This replicates being in an office and seeing who is at their desk and who is in a conference room with who. I like it, it feels more cohesive than a green circle on Slack.

Other tools include screen recording (e.g. for creating a quick how-to video), AI note-takers, whiteboards, schedulers (like Calendly), and more.

I've been remote since 2017, and this is the best! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use the videoconferencing tool with external clients. Overall it works well, though every once in a while someone needs to switch to a different platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No knocking in the meeting rooms, and easy to access, direct call access, see everybody is in the office or not. @roam is the best app I have used so far Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

spotlight search could be more improved in the search bar Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the layout, the idea, and the way in which ROAM has detailed, well-thought-out features. It is simply ingeniously designed down to the smallest detail. ROAM helps me keep track of various topics, as to-dos are generated directly from meetings, which only need to be checked off at the end of the day. I no longer have to write additional task lists, as these arise directly from the meetings and are assigned to people. After an appointment, everything is really clear, and I no longer have to play ping pong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial setup of ROAM was not so easy for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like ROAM because it's pretty easy to use, which is a big plus for me. It integrates the entire team in a really good way, allowing everyone to talk to each other simply. The support team is pretty good, too. They listen and have an internal live chat that helps solve any issues. The fact that hopping into a call is easy helps a lot, especially since my entire team is remote. It gets us much closer even though we're all working from home. These are some of the reasons I enjoy using ROAM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think some of the things that could be improved are related to the microphone speed and the voice speed. I have to click on control to raise the speed of the audio I'm listening to from my team, and it's not so easy to do every time. Also, forwarding some audios gives some bugs.

I feel more connected to my team and need to use less supplemental platforms Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing yet. I am still using it every day and so far, so good! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Rooms and team room; even meeting rooms. Rooms in general. Really nice to see where everyone is and being able to instantly hit someone up. Didnt think it would translate at first but we use it every day now and its pretty critical for team communications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not being able to customize room layouts - moving, adding, removing, renaming rooms is not possible. The theater is completely unused by us. Granted we are a team of 8 so it doesnt really make sense for us. Magic minutes suck. Background filter sucks, zooms and google meets is much better. Theres a lot of features that are just never gonna be used by us. Being able to create custom roammojis would be nice. Not being able to join the roam meeting whenever I want even if its very early is super annoying! The original onboarding call we had was awful, just some sales guy talking endlessly and monotically in the theater main stage without interacting with us for 30 minutes, almost made us not do it. Chat features are unused by us cuz we just use slack, it seems like a waste of space, I would rather if roam had slack integration or something. An easier way to clock out for a short period wud be nice like a come back in x minutes. right now u either set urself to dnd or exit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate ROAM for all its features and the price. It operates lightly and doesn't require contracts, which is a big plus for me. They even offer a two-week free trial, which was surprising. My team loved it from the start, and we began taking meetings in ROAM right away. The support from John, our point of contact, was great with a full walkthrough. I also find immense value in features like scheduling, calendar invites, video calls, audio calls, magic cast, magic minutes, and the ability to record calls and interact with the AI bot during meetings. This makes it easy to catch anything I might have missed. It was also super easy to set up; sign in, maybe connect some email accounts, and that's it. The company shows thoughtfulness in their approach and I have only good things to say about them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would say maybe a video call quality is eight and a half out of 10 sometimes. There's just settings in the platform, and I don't know how to use all the settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Roam has the capability to host meetings for anyone, at any time. I’ve tried about half a dozen other platforms to communicate with others, and whether it’s work related or outside of work, this platform brings together the best features from those other tools into a personalized, mobile office space.

So far, there’s a lot to take in. It has so much potential, but it feels intimidating at the beginning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
