DimDim has been tested thoroughly by me and application is cool but you need good internet bandwidth for things to work as expected. Below are the some of the bugs found as part of Malliks Testing.
- HTML/JS injection(XSS) is possible at many places on DimDim because of improper handling of html & js code.
- Some of the cookies are storing the passwords in plain text format which is not appreciated from security perspective.
- Member knowing pptId and meetingId can open the presentation even without being member of meeting which is not appreciated.

Mallik-
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Dimdim review. I've let our engineering team know about the issues you've raised. We have done significant work to reduce the amount of bandwidth required for some of the meeting components -- expect to see those changes live in under 2 weeks.
Thanks!

I've been testing DimDim on-and-off for the past year for a SMB. Everytime we think it's going to work flawlessly, there's always an issue. Today it was white noise. It such a great concept to Webex, but it's got to work robustly for it to really gather strength.
ReplyDeleteI want to suggest you try http://www.showdocument.com - Its an alternative tool to dimdim, for collaborating online and document sharing without needing to install anything. Try it.
