I don't know Jitsi at all, but the things about Galene (and Pyrite) I have enjoyed.
* Low resource requirements. You can serve lots of users off a Rasp Pi
* Single binary + JSON Config.
* Designed to be modified. Galene is API driven so you can ship your own custom UI. I co-ran a conference a while back and Galene let us give a custom experience easily. Users had no idea what we were using on the backend, and we customized it exactly to what we wanted.
* Written in Go/Easy to understand. You can get into the guts of Galene's jitter buffer etc.. pretty easily. Great for learning and understanding the software you are running.
* Maintainers are really accessible! Galene's developer runs a mailing list and you get bounce ideas of him and some other really smart people on it.
