Virtex Announces New Four Screen Web Conferencing Service
Service cuts wasted business travel time for greater productivity and leisure time.
London, UK (PRWEB via PR Web Direct)
December 7, 2004 -- Virtex International today introduced their four-screen
version of the Virtex C3 web conferencing, webinar and
collaboration service. The new system addresses frustrations associated with business
travel to meetings, conferences, seminars and customer meetings, whether by
air, road or rail. Virtex is a pioneer of next generation, online,
three-dimensional virtual exhibitions.
Steve Martin, CEO, well
understands the problems of business travel. “I travelled a lot each year for
meetings with clients and attendance at seminars and conferences. Often, I found
I only wanted to attend some, not all, of the sessions at conferences. And, when
I visited clients, I might have four or five hours of travel time for a one hour
meeting. I calculated I could give myself an extra 35 days a year by cutting out
wasted excess travel.”
The C3 utilizes four screens for interactive
face-to-face video and integrated VOIP audio, permitting users to
see and hear each other without having to use the telephone. Possible
interactions range from a small group of two or three people to webcasts and
conferences with thousands of participants, providing flexibility and
convenience for all parties involved.
“With our new four-screen service,
you can feel you're having a real face-to-face online meeting,” explains Martin.
“That will be an even greater incentive to cut out wasteful travel time. Both an
individual's productivity and their job satisfaction can soar - and I feel sure
they'll gain much more satisfying leisure time. That's good for them and good
for their companies.”
The hosted service, easily used from a PC or
notebook, includes features such as PowerPoint or Flash slide shows, whiteboard,
feedback polling, sharing files and documents, streaming video presentations and
interactive chat. Charges are now only 15c per user minute, with discounted
rates available to volume users.
