What is online video conferencing?

There is nothing better than meeting face to face. A face-to-face meeting conveys information faster, is more engaging, and has less room for miscommunication than both e-mails and teleconferencing. However, in today's global economy, a face-to-face meeting is often extremely inefficient, wasting both time and money.

SoftFoundry's VFON (consumer use) and VMEET (enterprise use) technology offers an efficient and convenient alternative to face to face meetings. VFON and VMEET technology uses DVD class video to enable virtual face-to-face meetings from anywhere on the globe, with as many as 100 simultaneous participants per meeting. The VMEET architecture provides ubiquitous access—regardless of location, hardware, operating system, and wired or wireless status—enabling everyone to reap the benefits of online video conferencing. There is no time or money wasted traveling between meetings, only increased productivity at a fraction of the current cost.

Virtually face-to-face

SoftFoundry’s VMEET allows you to virtually be at any meeting. Just as if you were actually at the meeting, you can present PowerPoint slides, graphics, videos, sounds, and files to people in real-time using your computer. In addition, people can see and respond to gestures, comments and displays. This is an increase in communication, without the hassle and expense of making travel arrangements. These are benefits not obtainable today with teleconferencing or e-mails, but obtainable through VMEET.

Use VMEET to:

• Conduct presentations, displaying PowerPoint slides, graphics, videos, sounds, and files.
• Demonstrate products and services to hundreds of viewers at a time.
• Run meetings, hold negotiations, sponsor and attend Q&A sessions or collaborate on projects. Nearly anything you can do in a meeting, you can do in VMEET.
• Instead of using a Webcast to update clients on current situations, update them with VMEET. This allows clients to interact, bringing questions, comments and concerns to the floor.

Driving the next wave of business communications
VMEET is fast becoming the preferred communication medium for business, combining the ease of audio conferencing with the interactivity of video conferencing directly from your desktop or your laptop on the move.
