Arun Srivastav - PeerSpot reviewer
Seamless presentation and collaboration enhance organizational productivity
There are three main areas for improvement: Firstly, AI capabilities should be integrated into Microsoft Teams to provide better transcript services and offer multiple language support.

"The license grants you a subscription and costs about $120. I am not aware of additional costs."

"If you have content that requires more security and you want to use it in a more secure manner, with more protection, then it will come at a higher cost."

"I rate the pricing as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
