What Others are Saying

“I went out and looked at several different vendors, namely Polycom® , Cisco® and LifeSize®. In my opinion, LifeSize compared favorably from a performance and cost perspective. LifeSize met all of our criteria, and it was great for our long-term goals. It far exceeded any other solution I evaluated.”

—Justin AshfordDirector of TechnologyMuseum of Nature & Science

“What LifeSize® is trying to do is differentiate from other video conference providers by first providing users flexibility in purchasing and use, and second highlighting how competitors force the purchase of ‘shelfware’ in unused applications in many one-size-fits-all packages.”

— Larry WalshLifeSize Introduces FlexibleVideo Conferencing, Channelnomics

“For companies that have traditionally rejected video due to its cost and complexity, I would recommend a closer look at the LifeSize Icon Series.”

—Robert ArnoldProgram Manager for Unified Communications and Collaboration at Frost and Sullivan
