Jason M. Lemkin (ID: 0000004cb21b9d00) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/27/2021 Just Works. If you want a solution that just works, whenever you need to do a video convo ... nothing is easier to use for both parties than Whereby

Kévin DEFARGE (ID: 000000b166fc1e92) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/21/2021 On ne peut même pas mettre de room si nous n'avons pas la version payante, un raccourci dans la barre de raccourci est beaucoup plus simple que l'utilité de cette extension.

Maxime Jobin (ID: 0000008441504e46) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/23/2020 Pretty useless if you are part of a team and you are not the account owner. I simply can't add the rooms I join daily in my account as quick links. Because of that, I don't see the point of using that extension.
