The Business Challenge
No matter what business you are in,
the success of your business is driven largely by the quality of your decision
making and the skill at which your team can execute on those decisions. Both
decision making and decision execution are dependent on the quality of
communications:
Better communications leads to better decisions and
better results implementing those decisions Rich media conferencing and
collaboration are the next-generation tools available today for improving your
communications capabilities, taking off where the telephone and email have left
off.
Everybody knows we want to see as much as we want to hear: thats
why videoconferencing enables more effective communications and enhances the
overall impact of the meeting.
What is MeetNow ?
Video telephony can easily integrate into an ip telephony infrastructure and
network, therefore placing a video callbecomes as easy and reliable as making a
standard phone call.
With MeetNow you can add multipoint
voice and video conference over IP networks, providing powerful audio and video
transcoding and transrating, advanced resource management and seamless
interoperability with standard endpoints.
MeetNow is
compliant with many vendors and it has been designed to fit any IP environment
and is completely compatible with H.323 standard and solutions like Cisco IP
Communications infrastructure (CallManager and CallManager Express).

Video conference call different video terminals such as H.323 Video Software
clients or modern Video IP Telephony solutions.
