RAPID
AUDIO/VISUAL
COMMUNICATION
SYSTEM
Electronic
meetings are
gaining
increasing
interest and
adoption by
businesses
and
organisations
of all
sizes.
However,
many are
still
apprehensive
about the
reliability
of the
technology,
security and
above all
cost!
If you
have
considered
electronic
meetings as
a tool in
your
business or
organisation
and rejected
it in the
past, we
invite you
to take a
second
look....
Wholly
owned
premises
hosted
collaboration
tools can
provide
extremely
cost
effective
alternatives
to service
provider
solutions.
Immediate
benefits
include cost
containment,
scalability,
electronic
meetings on
demand and
desk top
tools which
integrate
easily with
your PC
applications
and data.
Workgroup
collaboration
technology
is not just
about video
and audio
conferencing
and you
don't need a
video
conferencing
suite. A
five user
system
licence can
cost less
than some
high end
Notebook
computers!
Today's
E-meeting
solutions
offer
security,
availability
on the
desktop at
the click of
button,
whiteboard
functionality,
ability to
show
documents,
drawings,
photographs
and web
pages too,
to multiple
participants.
All as easy
as sending
an email!
Business
Benefits and
Return on
Investment
Significant
savings can
be made
through the
reduction or
elimination
of business
travel -
even across
town.
Further
savings can
be made from
accommodation
and
transportation
costs.
Workgroups
no longer
need to
travel and
meet to
collaborate,
they CAN do
this over
the Internet
in privacy
with
document and
applications
sharing,
audio and
video.
Geographically
dispersed
workgroups
can meet at
anytime,
anywhere at
the click of
a button.
Adding a
Competitive Edge
Collaboration
tools provide a competitive edge as businesses today are
challenged with shortened development cycles and economic
pressures which induce organisations to increase efficiency.
Globalisation, decentralisation, increased use of home workers
and contracted out services are evidence of this.
In a
recent
survey, 75%
of companies
using video
conferencing,
used
external
service
providers,
10% now
expect to
migrate
their
service to
wholly
owned,
premises
hosted
systems
operating
over their
LAN and the
internet
within the
next 12
months. Why?
The appeal
of service
provider
offerings at
x $ per
month or per
minute
remains
attractive.
It is a very
competitive
market.
However many
companies
and
organisations
continue to
limit
electronic
conferencing
to senior
management
and high
value
meetings
because they
are fearful
of
escalating
costs as
contract
usage rates
may be
exceeded as
users
realise the
benefits.
Limiting the
distribution
and growth
of
electronic
meetings by
imposing
access
privileges,
onerous
policies and
administrative
"bottlenecks"
can cause
user
communities
to withhold
new ideas
and
innovation.
Conversely, wholly owned
premises based systems are based on a server licence and the
number of concurrent users with no ability to exceed the licence
cost and therefore can be considered to be fixed cost. This
means that everyone can have the client present on their
computer as an "always on" service available across all of your
data networks or connected via the internet from some other
location. It is no longer necessary to put decisions "on hold
"until a session, meeting room or conferencing suite is
available.

RAVCOMS EYECON users

their own
brief
meetings on
an ad-hoc
basis or
using
structured

needed. All
they need is
a laptop or
desktop
computer,
sound card,
speakers/headphones
and a good
quality
Webcam
camera.
