Collaboration supports today’s global, real-time organizations by promoting effective communication allowing people to meet at any time from anywhere. By integrating voice, video, and Web conferencing into everyday communications, organizations can expand their market reach, improve operational effectiveness, and speed decision making. The ability for all meeting participants to hear and contribute to the discussion, view other participants and read their body language, and share documents all contributes to effective remote meetings, whether the meeting is a sales demonstration, training application, project team meeting, or customer support interaction.
Nexus provides a variety of different collaboration choices for organizations. They include:
TelePresence
To improve this situation, Cisco has developed an innovative solution that creates an “in-person” meeting experience over the converged network. Cisco TelePresence delivers real-time, face-to-face interactions between people and places in their work and personal lives using advanced visual, audio, and collaboration technologies. These technologies transmit life-size, high-definition images and spatial discrete audio. Now it’s easier than ever to discern facial expressions for those crucial organizational discussions and negotiations across the “virtual table.”
WebEx
Meet online whenever you want with on-demand web conferencing. On-demand web conferencing has become the preferred communication medium for business today. By combining the ease of audio conferencing with the interactivity of video conferencing directly from your desktop, you create a truly personalized interactive experience. You can schedule meetings in advance or start an instant meeting with the click of your mouse. Send invitations via email or IM–you can even start the meeting from within our secure instant messenger.
MeetingPlace
The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace solution is deployed on-network and integrated with an organization’s private voice and data networks to help companies realize the cost-savings potential of converged IP networks. On-network deployment facilitates cost savings because organizations can use their IP network infrastructures to reduce conferencing-related transport costs. Because conferencing can account for up to 50 percent or more of a company’s overall voice traffic, keeping traffic on internal networks results in significant cost savings. On-network deployment also results in a secure meeting environment.
