Der wahre Unterschied
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Around stands out with Floating circle video bubbles and Auto noise cancellation. Riverside counters with Local recording for studio quality and 4K video recording.
Around's Achilles heel: absorbed into miro — standalone product identity is fading, and you’re locked into miro’s ecosystem now. Riverside's: overkill for regular meetings — built for production, not for your daily standup or client call. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Fazit
If you value floating circle video bubbles and design- und produkt-teams, die, go with Around. If podcaster und content creator, matters more, Riverside is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
