<div>To be clear, I suggested we try bluejeans for one month, at
a cost of $9.99, to compare it to jitsi. Bluejeans has a bunch
of meeting management features that jitsi lacks, that sound
useful, and its livestream/recording functionality sounds far
better than jitsi's, even when jitsi' is working correctly.
Bluejeans is also a separate application on Linux, not
dependent on a browser.<br>

<div>The jitsi live streaming and recording failed completely
when we held the meeting last week.</div>

<div dir="auto">John mentioned that we buy bluejeans for
our next and following meetings. Cost is $9.99/mo.
I've used bluejeans before. I can't get a trial
membership because I have used it before. One
advantage is it handles live streaming for up to 5
hours. I think bluejeans does handle screen sharing a
bit better than jitsi. Bluejeans is a closed source
enterprise solution. <br>

solutions, one should look at StreamYard as well,
that's what professional streamers are using for WFH
interviews. Streams to YouTube, Periscope, & FB
Live simultaneously, and merges the chat streams into
moderator console; moderator can push a comment into
Chyron (aka "lower third") as well as pop up chyron's
