New Service Redefines Video Conferencing with Cost-Effective Alternative To High-Priced & Inflexible Room-Based Hardware Systems

SightSpeed Inc. unveiled a breakthrough business video conferencing service that enables all businesses – including small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) – to communicate and connect face-to-face with clients, customers, and colleagues without the need for expensive and immobile room-based hardware.

This new service, SightSpeed Business, combines the high resolution video quality of expensive, stationary room-based hardware systems with the ease of use, flexibility and mobility found in business-class Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services. Available for a fraction of the cost of existing video conferencing products ($19.95 per month and $189.95 per year), SightSpeed Business also eliminates the need for any separate IT investment.

More after the break

With SightSpeed Business, users also have the flexibility and mobility for conducting a video conference anytime, anywhere – something that is impossible with room-based hardware systems. Since SightSpeed Business is installed on the user’s PC or Mac, face-to-face single click video communications with up to four users can occur anywhere a broadband connection can be found.
Key SightSpeed Business features include:

– Award-winning high quality video (including near high definition with 640×480 resolution cameras)

– Unlimited one-to-one video calling and unlimited and enhanced multi-party video conferencing for up to four participants

– A new streamlined interface optimized for the business user

– In-call collaboration features, including file sharing and multiple video screen viewing modes for better control over desktop view

– Unlimited video mail and video blogging (with extended recording time), and unlimited text messaging and PC-to-PC voice calling

– 500 free U.S. and Canada telephone calling minutes to any landline or mobile phone (and additional telephone “out” calling at competitive rates)

– Voice and video mail for incoming calls with e-mail notification

– Ability to record, publish and archive live video calls and conferences

– Administrative console for central user set up, management and reporting on an individual user and company-wide level, and simple purchase of call minutes, custom phone numbers and multi-user licenses

– Live, face-to-face video support and live toll-free phone support

– Secure, reliable and fully SIP/standards-based – enterprise-class architecture

“There is a need for enterprise-quality video communications solutions for the small and medium business,” said Rebecca Swensen, research analyst at IDC. “SightSpeed Business meets this need by providing quality video via a cost-effective service rather than a costly hardware solution. SightSpeed’s software as a service approach has the potential to disrupt the multi-billion dollar business video conferencing market in much the same way that Salesforce.com disrupted the CRM business.”
