Whereby vs Jitsi

How do Whereby and Jitsi compare? And what does Dyte Video SDK offer? 

Overview

Whereby and Jitsi are some of the tools developers look at when building live experiences. But both platforms bring a mirage of challenges for users and take months to integrate into your app. 

Dyte changes that. With Dyte, you get a single SDK that handles video/voice calls, live streams, and offers collaborative features out of the box. All that, and it takes you 10 minutes to integrate Dyte into your app. 

This page pits Whereby vs Jitsi’s pros and cons and explains why Dyte deserves your consideration so you can make an informed decision.
