I have some users that have started to use it quite a bit. Mostly one on one screenshare for training or troubleshooting. They have also been posting different workspaces to host files for processes that they use a lot. Gives a simple repository that everyone can get to and add notes or ask questions about items in the space. I don't think anyone uses the whiteboard.

 

 

As you mentioned through, I'm not a fan of how the video opens up either. I need to get clarification on the video share limits also. The KB for it mentions up to 8 video participants can connect but when the appear.in window opens it says that only four can connect but 12 are allowed on a pro plan.

Chris, we are in the process from SM 17 of implementing our own WebRTC for video conferencing. This will eliminate the need of using a 3rd party, like appear.in.  It has also been suggested that we keep the 3rd party app URL as an option and possibly add a third option of "launching" a hosted video conf app.  Just FYI about video conferencing within Team Workspaces for SM 17.
