Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Security Officer

Weighted verdict

Wants to know what the vendor can see, and reads "encrypted" as a question rather than an answer. Asks which meetings get end-to-end encryption, what stops working when they do, who holds the keys, and who can walk into a meeting with a link.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

The meeting itself

How this is scored

Whether the call works: participant capacity, video and audio quality under load, screen sharing, breakout rooms, moderation, and what happens on a bad connection.

0 — Small meetings only, no screen sharing worth the name, no moderation controls, and the call degrades without telling anyone.

3 — Standard meetings with screen sharing and mute-all, but low participant limits, no breakout rooms and no bandwidth adaptation stated.

5 — Meetings at the scale most teams need with screen sharing, breakout rooms, host moderation, and documented behaviour on constrained connections.

8 — Large meetings and webinars with published capacity limits, per-participant moderation and waiting rooms, layout control, simulcast or adaptive bitrate stated, and reliable behaviour on mobile networks.

10 — Scale and control are engineering claims the vendor stands behind: capacity published per plan and per region, selective forwarding with adaptive quality documented, live streaming, hardware-room support, and diagnostics an admin can read after a bad call.

Report an error

The Security Officer

Screen sharing is engineered rather than an afterthought: two content modes plus SVC on demand that adapts stream size to throughput, network quality and CPU, and the vendor states communications stay fluid on unstable connections. Waiting rooms, live streaming and SIP/H.323 room-system support are all documented. We found no public information on participant capacity limits, breakout rooms, per-participant moderation, or admin-readable diagnostics after a bad call. 1 2 6 7 9

Encryption & meeting access

How this is scored

What is actually encrypted and against whom, plus who can get into a meeting. Judged on documented mechanism rather than on the word "encrypted".

0 — Transport encryption only, undocumented; meetings joinable by anyone with a link and no lobby.

3 — TLS in transit and encryption at rest, with the vendor holding all keys; access control is a passcode.

5 — The above plus a lobby or waiting room, host-controlled admission, per-meeting passcodes, and a clear statement that the vendor can technically access media.

8 — Optional end-to-end encryption for meetings with the trade-offs named (which features stop working), documented key handling, SSO-gated joining, and per-meeting access policies.

10 — End-to-end encryption available without surrendering the product — its cryptography documented or open source, key management explained, identity verification for participants, and the vendor stating plainly what it can and cannot see.

Report an error

The Security Officer

This is the vendor's strongest ground: end-to-end encryption is on by default for audio, video and data at any participant count, the mechanism is documented — Diffie-Hellman with a fresh key per connection — and users can take control of the key themselves through Augmented Security, while admission rests on waiting rooms, multi-factor authentication and minimal guest rights. A secret code entered by every participant derives a dedicated encrypted tunnel, which functions as participant verification, and ANSSI CSPN certification plus customer source-code audits make the claims checkable rather than decorative. What I found no public information on is which features stop working under end-to-end encryption, and how the advertised targeted access to messages in end-to-end encrypted workspaces for audit purposes operates without the members' keys. 1 3 4 5

Reach & accessibility

How this is scored

Whether everyone who needs to join can: browser without an install, dial-in, low bandwidth, guests without accounts, captions and keyboard operation.

0 — A desktop client is the only way in; guests must create an account.

3 — Browser joining exists but is degraded, guests can join by link, and there is no dial-in and no accessibility statement.

5 — Full-feature browser joining without an install, guest access by link, mobile apps, and a stated accessibility posture.

8 — Telephone dial-in with numbers listed, live captions, keyboard-navigable and screen-reader-tested interface, and documented low-bandwidth behaviour.

10 — Reach is designed for: browser parity with the client, dial-in across the regions the customer operates in, live captions and translation, a published accessibility conformance report, and a usable experience on a poor mobile connection.

Report an error

The Security Officer

Anyone can get in: browser joining over WebRTC with no account and no installation, guest links, clients for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS, and documented bandwidth and CPU optimisation for people running screen magnifiers or speech synthesis software. Telephone reach is partially covered by gateway calls to and from phone numbers. We found no public information on dial-in number lists, live captions during a meeting, or a published accessibility conformance report — the AI transcripts we see apply to recordings, not live captioning. 2 6 7 8

Recordings, retention & admin control

How this is scored

A recording is personal data about everyone in the room. Who may record, who is told, where it is stored, how long it lives, and what the works council can switch off.

0 — Anyone can record, storage location unstated, no retention rule, no admin policy.

3 — Host-only recording with a notification, but storage region unstated, retention manual, and no organisation-wide policy control.

5 — Admin policy over who may record, participant notification and consent prompt, stated storage region, and manual deletion that works.

8 — Automatic retention and deletion per policy, recordings encrypted at rest with access logged, transcription handled with its own retention rule, and attendance or analytics features that can be switched off for co-determination.

10 — Built for a works agreement: every recording, transcript and analytics feature independently switchable and documented, retention executed and evidenced, an audit trail of who accessed which recording, and no participant-level behavioural scoring at all.

Report an error

The Security Officer

Recording triggers a visual notification to participants, is compatible with end-to-end encryption and is stored in the vendor's cloud; an administrator can re-grant access to workspace data when members leave, and files exchanged in the in-meeting chat self-delete at session end. Beyond that the picture is thin: recording ships as an optional add-on depending on the offer, and we found no public information on retention or deletion rules, access logging, or how to switch off the AI transcripts, summaries and translations for co-determination purposes. 1 3 8 9

Integrations & deployment

How this is scored

Calendar, identity and the wider stack — plus, in this category, whether the product can be run on the customer's own infrastructure at all.

0 — No calendar integration, no SSO, no API; cloud-only with no alternative.

3 — One calendar integration and basic SSO, no API worth building on, cloud-only.

5 — Calendar integration for the major suites, SAML or OIDC SSO, a documented API for scheduling, and room-system support.

8 — The above plus SCIM provisioning, embedding via SDK, webhooks for meeting events, and either a self-hosted option or a documented private-cloud deployment.

10 — Deployment is the customer's choice: a genuine on-premises or private-cloud option with the same features, open protocols or open source, embeddable SDKs, and identity integration that does not require the vendor's directory.

Report an error

The Security Officer

Deployment is genuinely the customer's choice — TixeoCloud, TixeoPrivateCloud, or TixeoServer on your own servers including air-gapped networks, which is the option that changes who holds the keys. Room systems from Poly, Cisco, LifeSize, Huawei and Avaya connect over SIP or H.323 through the gateway. The rest is thin: only an Outlook add-in is evidenced for calendars, and we found no public information on single sign-on, SCIM provisioning, a documented API, SDKs or webhooks. 1 3 6 11

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Where media and metadata are processed, who the contracting entity is, which subprocessors carry the traffic. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; scored here as this buyer weighs it — which in this category is heavily.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, media routed through unstated regions, subprocessors unnamed.

3 — EU data residency for storage while media relays or metadata remain non-EU, or the contracting entity sits outside the EU.

5 — EU hosting and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain — relays, analytics, support tooling, transcription — are non-EU without an explained safeguard.

8 — Media and metadata processed in the EU on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, complete subprocessor list published, any non-EU processing named with its legal basis.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: media never leaves the EU, every subprocessor European, certification published, and an on-premises option that removes the question entirely.

Report an error

The Security Officer

The vendor's own pages claim European servers, SecNumCloud-qualified hosting, development in France by an independent company, and an on-premises deployment that removes the hosting question entirely. Against that, the independently sourced sovereignty attributes record the contracting entity, data residency and subprocessor exposure as unknown, and we found no public subprocessor list in the captured pages. For a vendor whose whole pitch is sovereignty, an unconfirmed chain is the one thing I cannot wave through. 1 3 5 7

Pricing transparency not rated — the vendor publishes no price

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the annual invoice for their host count — including the capacity, dial-in and recording storage they actually need — from public pages alone.

0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.

3 — A per-host headline exists, but participant caps, dial-in minutes or recording storage are unpriced or unmentioned.

5 — Per-host prices public with billing period stated and capacity limits given, but at least one commonly needed piece (webinar capacity, dial-in, storage) sits in an unpriced add-on.

8 — Every tier and add-on priced publicly with per-host maths, capacity limits, dial-in rates, storage allowances, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.

10 — Complete price computability: a calculator producing the annual invoice for a given host count, meeting size and recording volume, including overage and per-region dial-in.

Report an error

The Security Officer

No public prices appear in the captured pages: three offerings are named, recording and live streaming are described as "available as an option" without figures, and the route to a number is a 30-day trial, a demo request and a contact form. A buyer cannot compute any part of the annual invoice from these pages. 1 9 11
