"A Simple, Easy-to-Use Meeting Tool with Room for Modern Improvements"
What do you like best about StartMeeting?

I really value the platform's overall simplicity, especially how it allows users to join meetings without having to install bulky software. The interface is clean, intuitive, and easy to navigate, even for those who aren't particularly tech-savvy. I also appreciate the reliability of the audio conference lines and the generally smooth performance of screen-sharing. By concentrating on the core features needed for meetings, the platform maintains a straightforward and efficient experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StartMeeting?

While the platform is functional, it is missing several advanced features that are typically available in more modern conferencing solutions. The user interface appears a bit outdated, and some tools—like collaboration features, third-party integrations, and in-meeting controls—are rather limited. Additionally, I have noticed that the video quality can be inconsistent at times. Overall, the user experience could be greatly improved with a more polished design and better performance across various devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless connection and great audio quality"
What do you like best about StartMeeting?

StartMeeting is incredibly reliable for our conference calls. The audio quality is consistently crisp, and the screen sharing feature is intuitive and seamless. I particularly appreciate how easy it is for participants to join meetings without having to navigate a complicated setup process. It is a solid, cost-effective solution that handles both small team syncs and larger presentations effortlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StartMeeting?

Honestly, there isn't much to dislike. It meets all of our business needs perfectly. If I had to pick one small thing, the interface could perhaps look a bit more modern compared to some competitors, but it is purely aesthetic and doesn't impact the functionality or performance at all.

"Powerful, cost-effective conferencing with enterprise-scale capacity"
What do you like best about StartMeeting?

StartMeeting’s pricing model and enterprise-grade capacity are the standout features. The flat-rate unlimited-hosts enterprise plan and the very competitive per-host tier make budgeting simple and predictable. Feature-wise, HD audio/video for up to 1,000 participants, built-in screen sharing and drawing, plus meeting recording and playback mean we rarely need additional tools — everything we need for large meetings or webinars is already there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StartMeeting?

While strong on core conferencing, there’s room to improve in a few areas: the default storage (10 GB) can feel limited for organizations that record many long sessions, and some customers may expect more advanced meeting analytics, participant engagement metrics, or finer-grained admin controls out of the box. The UI and onboarding are solid, but could benefit from more modern polish and additional self-serve customization options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about StartMeeting?

I use StartMeeting for hosting reliable video conferences and team meetings. I love its simplicity and reliability. Meetings are easy to start and join, with consistently clear audio and smooth screen sharing without lag. I appreciate the built-in recording and scheduling features that make it easy to run productive meetings without the need for extra tools. These features save me time and reduce friction in my work, allowing participants to join quickly and meetings to proceed smoothly. The audio quality helps keep conversations productive, and the screen sharing lets me present without interruptions. The recording feature is handy for sharing important discussions, while the scheduling feature helps keep everything organized. The initial setup of StartMeeting was straightforward and quick, requiring minimal configuration and making the interface easy to understand. Overall, I find it dependable for professional meetings and client calls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StartMeeting?

While StartMeeting is reliable and easy to use, the interface could feel a bit more modern. There are times when I’d like more advanced customization or collaboration features compared to larger platforms. Occasional minor limitations in integrations or settings mean I sometimes need to rely on other tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Meetings with Clear Audio"
What do you like best about StartMeeting?

I use StartMeeting for hosting virtual meetings and webinars because it's simple and dependable. I really value the clear audio, smooth screen sharing, and the fact that people can join quickly without hassle. It takes away the frustration of constant audio issues and confusing controls that I've experienced with other platforms, keeping meetings running smoothly. I can start a meeting quickly, and everyone can join without confusion or delays. I also enjoy how consistent and secure it feels, with meetings running smoothly without random drop-offs or technical hiccups. The setup was very easy and straightforward, allowing me to schedule and join meetings almost immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StartMeeting?

I think there’s room for improvement in terms of advanced features and customization. Compared to some larger platforms, it has fewer built-in collaboration tools or integrations, which would be nice for more complex workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Online Meetings with Top-Notch Features"
What do you like best about StartMeeting?

StartMeeting has proven to be an outstanding solution for hosting online meetings and webinars. The platform’s interface is clean and intuitive, making it easy to get started with virtually no learning curve. Audio and video quality remain consistently high, even when working with larger groups, and participants can join without having to navigate complicated setup processes.

What I find particularly valuable are the built-in conference line, screen-sharing capabilities, and recording options. These features make it straightforward to conduct professional meetings without the need for multiple applications. The interface feels lightweight, yet it still offers all the essential controls that moderators and presenters require. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StartMeeting?

The interface is straightforward, but it can seem somewhat outdated when compared to more modern meeting platforms. With larger groups, there are sometimes minor audio or connection issues. Additionally, there are fewer integrations with third-party apps than what some competitors offer. The mobile experience also leaves room for improvement, as it could be more seamless and user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
