Reviews of CloudShare
Alternatives Considered:
The best virtual classroom solution.
Comments: From the start nearly 2-years ago with a sales rep to today, I have had a great experience. Their sales rep knew the product well and had the authority to make things happen. After purchase, I was connected with an account manager that knew the product very well and helped me get started. Overall, Cloudshare has be an integral part of our training; especially during COVID.
Pros:
The overall speed and ease in creating virtual machines, taking snapshots, and configuring a virtual classroom.
Cons:
I wish the virtual classroom had the ability to call into a phone number for audio purposes. However, we successfully use a 3rd party solution for audio. If computer audio is all you need, then Cloudshare's audio solution for the virtual classroom is great. They have consistently improved the video/webcam and audio tools.
Sandbox, Demo, Customized Scenarios - On Demand
Comments: Enables live product demonstration in standardized and customized scenarios easily shared with customers live or asynchronously. After dozens of customer environment shares and more demo delivery utilization I've found it easy to use and educate people on its use.
Pros:
Easy ability to spin up a customer demo environment tailored to their immediate requirements. This gives each training session or customer scenario build out a human touch where it is needed and pre-defined standardization where its not.
Cons:
UI/UX could use some updates specifically to make using cloud folders easier to use. The ability to setup email alerts when a user connects to a shared environment, or a daily/weekly end user activity report on shared environments to track usage.
Another way of working
Pros:
I like its simplicity and it's more "friendly" than it may seem. The addition of videoconferencing is really a big plus
Cons:
Frequent connection problems, althougn this has been diminished lately
Excellent software for client demos !
Pros:
User interface, fast results on VMs, multiple geographies available
Cons:
Connections drops at times, link can be unstable
I am happy to use cloudshare
Comments: I love it :)
Pros:
I have over 30 years experience with systems and virtual machines. I have my own environments, but CloudShare gave me the chance to access the environments in a very easy manner and have always a very good performance. I use different environments to show our software solutions with very critical components.
Cons:
There a lot of open browser tabs if you click on your list, vms etc.
