Managed Video Conferencing

Many executives recognise the value managed video conferencing offers, to make their organisations more environmentally responsible. Most, too, recognise its value in giving you a competitive edge and increasing margins. But, despite this, not all enterprises make use of - or best use of - video conferencing solutions.

THE EYEWIMAX SOLUTION

It's not enough to have video conferencing facilities in the office. Often, the whole user experience just isn't good enough. What's required is an easy to use, high definition service. That's why we offer you the best equipment and the option of a fully managed service. We can make video conferencing easier to use, too, with EyeWiMAX Virtual Presence. Designed to work with your EyeWiMAX IP-VPN Quality of Service (QoS) network, it delivers:

•    A video conference bridge service with 'virtual meeting rooms'
•    The ability to invite up to 4 users in on audio
•    A helpdesk to deal with problems you might be having there & then
•    Monitoring of your video conference equipment

THE BUSINESS BENEFITS

If something crops up in your organisation, you must react quickly. Often, meetings are vital, you want to see people but travel needs cut your reaction time. With managed video conferencing you can have immediate face-to-face meetings, and the answer, before too much time is lost.

Speedy decision making isn't the only benefit. Video conferencing delivers real savings when you run more conferences and authorise less travel. Our research suggests an individual in a medium size organisation will, on average, drive 200 business miles and spend £80 on airfares each month. It adds up to £1.9 million for every thousand employees every year. And this isn't even the full cost, as you will need to factor in employees' lost productivity while travelling.

Corporate social responsibility, minimising your CO2 emissions is another great benefit and when the whole 'package' of benefits -

•    Delivering on the promise to be more environmentally responsible

•    Recognising and reducing the true cost of business travel

•    Increasing productivity

- is realised, a high quality, managed video conferencing solution makes a big difference.

WHY US?

Our thinking is "make it better, use it more". We offer High Definition - HD - equipment from specialists Polycom and Tandberg to transform your experience. With our managed service, any problems can be resolved instantly as we offer a helpdesk to deal with problems there & then.

Reliability, too, is managed, as we monitor your video conference equipment to make sure all is OK. It's all this that ensures our managed service makes videoconferencing both a robust alternative to business travel and a real enabler to your business.

We've also looked at the pricing, and our Virtual Presence service is available for a flat monthly charge per video conference end-point. (Although if you make inbound or outbound ISDN calls to conference in locations outside your IP-VPN, or request specific operator assisted events, then these will have a usage based charge). This flat rate pricing helps you manage your costs and encourage people to use video conferencing as much as possible.
