Enterprise communication has always been an area of focus for the companies that want to stay a step ahead of their competitors when it comes to reaching out to employees and clients. It is quite common to engage in conference calls, both video as well as audio, to carry out a meeting when it’s not possible for the employees or the clients to be physically present at a common location.
With the growth of an organization comes the unique challenge of maintaining smooth communication channels between the offices and customers. This can be resolved by opting for video conferencing service that effectively minimizes the enterprise communication challenges and simplifies the process.
Prior to the introduction of modern video conferencing, an online meeting needed one to download and install some very complicated meeting software specifically designed for use with the Internet. It also required specific hardware equipment for the meetings to then take place, both for the host and those attending the meeting.
The introduction of video conferencing services has made lives simpler for the businesses as the owners or managers can now arrange for a meeting without any hassles. Irrespective of whether the operating system is Mac, Linux or Windows, the modern video conferencing tools can be easily run on any platform. Online video conferencing uses the Internet connection to send and receive the signals.
Advantages of using an online web or video conferencing service:
Firstly, conferencing saves a lot of money for a business, which would otherwise be spent on traveling and hotel stays. When a meeting has to be held, it does not require anyone involved to travel to a specific location. All it requires of them is to log on at a specified time to the video conferencing service and the meeting can start straightaway. Cost savings are made by not having to cover people’s travelling expenses to attend a meeting any more.
Secondly, although the number of participant stations that actually take part in the conference may be restricted in many cases up to 15, the number of people who can actually attend is not. Theoretically, a meeting can be arranged for hundreds even thousands of people at a given point in time.
Thirdly, with all video conferencing services today there is the facility to allow participants to share applications along with allowing them to open and examine documents online. It even facilitates PowerPoint presentations by the host as well as by those who are attending the meeting. Remote access to laptops, PCs, and tablets can be easily achieved by using a single video conferencing solution.
