The new portal – called Best Practice Videos – features video clips of executives discussing lessons learned during the deployment of online video and Web Conferencing technologies in their own organization.

“One of the best ways to learn about business video is to watch business video,” said Steve Vonder Haar, research director of Interactive Media Strategies. “Our goal with Best Practice Videos is to provide a showcase where pioneers and thought leaders in the field of business Web Communications can share the wisdom of their front-line experience with others exploring the potential for implementing these technologies within their own organizations.”

Best Practice Videos, designed to be an advertising-supported site available for free to online viewers, will be updated with new videos on a weekly basis. The video portal is part of the ConferencingNews.com site and can be accessed at Best Practice Videos

Interactive Media Strategies, a five-year-old market research firm based in Arlington, Texas that tracks the enterprise online communications sector, produces the video content featured on the Best Practice Videos site. Aperio Networks will syndicate and promote Best Practice Videos from its family of sites focusing on Web communications technologies, including ConferencingNews.com, EnterpriseVideo.com and EventSpan.com.

Said John Rourke, CEO of Aperio Networks, “The new Best Practice Videos initiative is a practical resource for offering useful, credible information that is relevant to a business audience aiming to leverage Web technologies to build competitive advantage.”

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (PRWEB) February 8, 2006

VIACK, a leading authority on secure web collaboration and communications, today released the latest version of its flagship, VIA3 Assured Collaboration Service. The new version brings marked enhancements to video conferencing, audio conferencing and usability, along with a significant reduction in bandwidth to meet today’s needs for quality secure online communications.

“At VIACK, we work closely with our clients to consistently monitor their secure web collaboration needs and obtain feedback on VIA3’s quality and usability to assess areas for improvement,” said Amy Fadida, senior vice president for VIACK Corporation. “Based on this assessment, we updated the information sharing software product’s most used features to provide greater functionality for their secure online communications.”

According to Fadida, the ability to observe non-verbal communications in a VIA3 meeting is an essential aspect of the web conferencing tool, as visual cues can greatly affect one’s communication. In addition to enhancing the video image quality in VIA3, Fadida says the company reduced the bandwidth needed by up to 50 percent. This reduction allows users with slower connections to receive a remarkably clear video image.

The reduction in bandwidth is due to the video conferencing software’s use of H.264, a next-generation video compression technology. According to Fadida, this technology, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10, gives VIA3 the capability to automatically enable the appropriate compression needed for an enhanced video conferencing experience.

In addition to improving the video image, VIACK expanded on VIA3’s telephone-quality audio by incorporating the following audio conferencing improvements:

    Automatic Gain Control (AGC), which automatically adjusts microphone levels for speaking volume throughout a meeting, allowing participants to focus on meeting content rather than adjusting audio levels for themselves and other online meeting participants.

    Built-in echo cancellation, which reduces ambient noise often detected by microphones, and leading to an increase in audio clarity and accuracy.

To complement the audio conferencing and video conferencing improvements, VIACK added overall usability enhancements, including greater flexibility in managing contacts and the ability to customize the desktop appearance of secure online meetings. The newest enhancement to contact management allows the VIA3 user to create ‘groups’ of contacts to invite to meetings rather than each contact one at a time. VIA3 users are also given a choice of meeting layout options. The Multi-task Layout positions the online meeting manager window on the left side of the screen, with all applications and documents opening next to the meeting window, for easy multi-tasking. Alternately, the Classic Layout allows the user to resize and move the meeting window anywhere on the desktop, resizing and repositioning the window as needed.

Enhancements were also make to the whiteboard capability in VIA3, including the addition of a laser pointer, improved page navigation and zooming capabilities of up to 500 percent.

Unlike communication services with limited capabilities, the company’s VIA3 Assured Collaboration Service provides organizations with an integrated combination of business communication tools including instant messaging, secure video conferencing, audio conferencing and online information sharing all in one convenient desktop offering.

Orange County, CA (PRWEB) August 24, 2006

BrightCom, Inc., the performance leader in integrated conferencing, announces that it has been selected as the video conferencing vendor for Medical Mutual of Ohio. With over 1.5 million customers throughout the Midwest, Medical Mutual is a leading provider of health care for over 70 years. In order to maintain a high level of customer service, Medical Mutual routinely communicates between its branches. Employees would spend several hours traveling from office to office resulting in a loss of man-hours. To address the increased cost of travel between offices, Medical Mutual began researching a cost-effective solution for video conferencing. Upon reviewing several systems, Medical Mutual selected the ClearView Video Conference Room System to address the requirement for a high-quality, secure, point-to-point video solution.

As a high-resolution video conference solution, the ClearView Video Conference Room System provides Medical Mutual with the ability to hold secure meetings with other offices simply by clicking a button. Employees can easily use the dialing menu to determine which conference rooms are available and hold a high-quality video conference with multiple locations. The ClearView Video Conference Room System is a fully secure product which complies with HIPAA regulations regarding secure communications and can easily be used as a mobile conference room. “We are using the flexible architecture of the system to address many needs such as moving the system from one room to another without administrative support,” said John Columbro, Director of IT for Medical Mutual. “We plug the system into an Ethernet port, and the conferencing begins,” added Columbro.

By selecting the ClearView Video Conference Room System for their collaboration needs, Medical Mutual has dramatically reduced the need for employees to travel to attend meetings, at a fraction of the cost of other video conference solutions. “By providing a secure method to conduct a point-to-point video conference and adding the ability to take these conferences to the desktop, we have addressed Medical Mutual’s intra-office communication needs and allowed them to expand their potential audience beyond the conference room,” said John Mudge, President of BrightCom.

In order to determine Medical Mutual’s web conferencing requirements, Prevail Performance, a BrightCom National Platinum Partner, conducted a thorough scope review of the customer’s collaboration needs. As a lead partner in the Midwest region, Prevail Performance has several years of experience in software deployments and a proven track record of customer satisfaction. “We realized early not only what Medical Mutual wanted to accomplish, but also what they could accomplish with this solution,” said Edward Taton, Vice President of Prevail Performance. “Our close relationship with BrightCom provided us the opportunity to address all of Medical Mutual’s requirements and concerns so that they were satisfied with the overall solution,” added Taton. Medical Mutual is now in the process of extending their video conference system by implementing ClearView solutions in several other offices to satisfy their growing video conferencing requirements as well as integrating BrightCom’s web conferencing solution to increase collaboration.
