BlueJeans usage declined in total meeting minutes in the month of March, but increased in the total number of meetings, recordings, and users versus February statistics. We had expected reductions in all categories. This suggests that the relatively small core of continuing users are still regularly using BlueJeans for ongoing needs. Many may be fully aware of the May 1 retirement, though, but continuing to use BlueJeans through the end of the semester.
Users who have continued to hold BlueJeans meetings will receive reminders of the retirement in early April and on April 28. In mid-April, users who have made recordings in the past several months will receive a reminder to download recordings before May 1.
Some of the key metrics we use to measure progress across the retirement project are provided below.
