Editor's review of oovoo 1.0.3.43

- "Chat and conference"
ooVoo is an iChat-like video conferencing and chat tool for Windows, loaded with useful, powerful tools that make it a viable alternative for small work groups using conference calls and screen-sharing applications.
A recording feature lets users tape video chats with other participants. Since the video and audio are being recorded to the hard drive, the only time limit is how much free space the computer's hard drive has. In testing, a nearly 15-minute, four-way video conversation only took up 95MB, which ooVoo can convert into a workable FLV file.
A conference calling tool gives host and participants a phone number to call. Other ooVoo users who call this conference line get plugged right into the audio that's a part of the video chat, and just like the video recordings, this audio gets archived too. Call-in lines support up to six people, meaning users can have up to a dozen participants--including those on the video side. Note that this service isn't free. An optional companion for ooVoo's video player can be used for screen sharing or file sharing, and fun facial overlay tool that applies digital masks either to users faces or to backgrounds. High-quality video streams are also supported.
Two qualms with the service are the audio quality, which sounded a little too compressed, and delays in the datastream of about a second or more. Besides being annoying, it can really force a heated debate to grind to a halt. Overall, ooVoo makes for a strong alternative to other VoIP and conferencing software.

Version: oovoo 1.0.3.43
Pros: color and style

Version: oovoo 1.0.3.43
"It's definitely the next best thing"
Pros: Basically, it has all the functions that Skype and messenger have, but the added benefits are in:
a) Better video and audio
b) Video conversations with up to 6 participants!
c) Video messages: you can send up a one minute video message to another user, or to someone?s email!
d) You can send up to 20 files at a time (25M each file) to online & offline(!) users.
* To leviavi: (1) In the next version ooVoo will also offer phone calls to regular phones. (2) You don't need a "mega connection" in order to make a video conference of 6 participants.
Upload of 512K & download of 1.5M are enough.
