does hipchat have a legit client or is it web only/3rd party comedy client?

like with slack, I only use the web client for hipchat.

imo skype chat isn't bad, it's the entire skype ui that's bad

KoRMaK posted:in my expierience, if I send an IM while somoene has a green dot next to their name then they get the message. if not, they get it via email hours later. half the time i send an IM in my company I get a spinny wheel and it never actually goes through or it goes through and then i get a bounceback message a minute or two later saying it timed out or something 1-on-1 calls, group calls, screensharing and skype for business meeetings work almost flawlessly though

i had a classic one last week, it had: * 5 minutes of people being unable to be on the call and the webex at the same time and just dialling off one then onto the other * "hello? jo? hello? are you on mute? hello? i can see you on the webex? hello?" * indian guy talking at 5000 words per minute so nobody new what the gently caress * this was the best, somehow in an attempt to conference someone in the host dialled into someones voicemail so then they recorded the entire meeting and then got a "warning, this message is too long, please hang up, please hang up..." on repeat blasted out at everyone and probably hosed that persons voicemail up completely (good because voicemail is worthless)

we scheduled a bluejeans meeting this morning because someone has used bluejeans with this customer previously and we didn't want to give them yet another conferencing system to fumble around with half of the customer side attendees couldnt get it to work, we switched to skype for business, lost 15 minutes doing this

FrozenVent posted:new procedure for teleconferences with our overseas office: we did this two jobs ago with our southern and mexico offices. this worked fine except if someone was speaking it would turn the speakers off on all the other phones so you could basically hold the call hostage as long as you were making some kind of noise.

so last week we had the usual nonsense call this time it was about a new contract approval / management package cue a bunch of administrative assistants connecting from their laptops using the built in cameras one by one they muted or put sticky notes over the camera once they realized that they all looked 20 years older and 20 pounds heavier

the presenter was a native Spanish speaker, i think Italian was his second. English was maybe fifth, so every fourth word was "ehhhhhh" 1.5 hours later. someone in our group asked about a heavily-used feature which the existing package has. "ehhhh we do not have that ehhhhh function ehhhh implemented yet. we ehhhhhh espect to have that in the next version" at that point the head of thefinance group mentioned that they already had begun negotiations on upgrading the existing package and would not consider paying for something different bloop bloop bloop everyone hung up total fuckin wasteof time. actually no. a proper breakfast was supplied, so it wasn't all bad
