GBOWL completely stopped working OWL completely stopped working, No eyes lighting up no sound coming out - dead in the water and less than a year old and never actually been used. No customer service available. I would say - don't invest in this product. It's 2 thumbs down on technical support/troubleshooting.

GBZero technical support -- unacceptable I bought a Meeting Own 3 about two weeks ago, but can never get the desktop (Windows) installed without crashing my system. Like what other people commented, my attempts to reach out to Owl Labs via email and phone got zero response. I have never experienced anything like this before and have lost confidence in the product and company. I was planning to return the product to get a refund, if only someone from Owl Labs could reply to my inquiries. I'm now forced to dispute the change via my credit card company. 9/2/2022 update: I finally got a response from technical support after more than a week and was promised a refund. So I withdrew my billing dispute with the credit card company. BUT the refund never came after more than two weeks, despite being told that the refund has been processed. So, I had to reinstate my dispute. This has been such a disappointing experience, a failure of the company on all fronts.

GBPart of the team Honestly I really love our Owl. We've been mostly working from home, so I usually end up in the office alone unless we're doing a conference call. There's something oddly comforting about the cute little 'hoot' the Owl makes when connecting. It's like having a useful pet/coworker there, even when I'm alone in the office. On a more serious note, I love being able to wander over to the whiteboard without worrying about staying in frame or whether or not I'm speaking loudly enough. It's sleek design fits in nicely with our the design of our conference room and ends up being a conversation starter for guests.

GBTerrible Customer Service. First and foremost the worst customer service I've experienced. That is to say they seem non existent. Cannot reach anyone by phone for the past two days, No one responds to their online widget nor do they answer any of the three emails that I have sent. The Meeting Owl Pro has extremely poor video quality and I can't comment on the sound since we cannot use this system for our meetings. Very nice concept and great if it works or any issues could be solved but all of this means nothing if you don't get support.

DKA simple solution to a complex problem I've only tried the first generation of hardware. This is a neat solution that is "all in one" if you already have your own computers and screens and are only looking to add a great webcam, a mic and possibly speakers. The 360 view is the killer feature. Just plant it on the middle of the table and that's it. No need to rotate laptops, play with flakly remote-controlled camera controls. It just works. The intelligent cropping works flawlessly. The microphone and speaker in the first generation isn't great. I've heard they've improved that in the second generation.
