Cons
“Transferring from tenant to another tenant is not easy without losing your information. Viewer licenses cost a lot since you have to buy a large amount at a minimum with virtually no permissions.”
AD

CTO

“Some users do not want to watch a video and if there is a guide I may be struggling with finding it.”

Business Apps Analyst

“Playback feature is nice, but confusing to setup. I am still not sure why running a process is part of this offering, very misleading.”
