UberConference - Conferencing

Design and Usability 3/5

The app has been around for almost a decade, and while the interface has seen some improvements, it still feels somewhat outdated. The overall design is pretty cumbersome, and most of the interface elements could be smaller for the app to be more comfortable. Anyway, key features are accessible, and new participants can be invited to your conferences by sharing a short link, which proves to be especially useful when you have multiple meetings every day or talk to people who are not that tech-savvy.

Key Functions 3/5

The list of features was quite impressive back then, but now it's common for communication apps in the videoconferencing niche. Moreover, some of the features could use some work. The app's voice calls may be clear, but UberConference just doesn't seem to recognize more than one voice at a time which makes big meetings uncomfortable. Participants become muted at random, the app can freeze for a couple of minutes or suddenly just drop a call. That's why we don't recommend this app to be used for business-related purposes, especially when dealing with clients. However, it can be a useful tool if you keep forgetting about your meetings: UberConference has a built-in alarm that can remind you about a planned meeting or start it automatically at a certain time.

Security 3.5/5

UberConference claims to be secure since the app utilizes the same encryption algorithms that most of its competitors use. You can also check profile information for every user in your meetings, block or mute them, and so on. That seems to be safe enough, and we don't know about any problems with unauthorized access to video calls and other external threats associated with UberConference.
