  • The virtual meeting rooms. It's SO easy for any user to create their own virtual meeting room to set up a conference call.
  • Dial in connections. Anyone can dial into a virtual meeting room with a standard phone. Again, a feature that is useful and just works. Every time.
  • No server!!! Having this service in the cloud has made my life as an admin easier. Plus the cloud recording feature is a huge help to folks who wish to keep a record of their conferences/training sessions without requiring a bunch of storage hardware!

  • The "Mute All" function as a Moderator also mutes the Lecturer, and does not mute new attendees. 
  • Frequent updates to the client app. This COULD be seen as a "pro" for some, but as an IT Administrator, this tends to be a bigger deal.

  • Entering a security PIN for a virtual meeting room on the Icon systems is cumbersome, and frequently it "times out" before the PIN is completely entered
