Nefsis Cloud Computing Fills Void between
Video Calling and Telepresence
The Nefsis cloud provides HD
quality, security, and affordability, offering business
users more choices between the extremes of unsecure video calling
and high-priced telepresence boardrooms
SAN DIEGO — June 9, 2011 — Online services innovator
Nefsis® provided commentary today on the expanding roll of cloud
computing in the video conferencing industry. Cloud computing is
enabling a new generation of video conferencing online services
such as Nefsis to provide HD video quality with the ease-of-use
of browsing the Web.
This new product category —
online
video conferencing — fills the void between free
consumer-oriented video calling services such as Skype and its
opposite extreme, installed-site telepresence systems costing hundreds
of thousands of dollars per installation. Now, business users can turn
to cloud-based services for more video, collaboration, and secure
conference controls than those of unsecure, simple video calls, but
without the heavy investment telepresence requires.
“Businesses
no longer have to face a choice between low-quality video
calling services and telepresence installations, now they can get
business-grade HD video quality and the anytime, anywhere convenience
of the cloud,” said Tom Toperczer, Nefsis Vice President of
Marketing.
Nefsis officials commented further that the combination of
distributed cloud technology that virtualizes conferences in close
proximity to users, end-to-end parallel processing leveraging all
available processor cores, and the use of off-the-shelf webcams and
conference room cameras, provides high-performance video and lower
cost. Not all cloud-based video conferencing solutions offer these
advantages.
Nefsis offers a full-featured, free trial available now at
Nefsis.com. Trial users can easily test and implement a wide variety
of
HD and
multipoint
video conferencing systems using almost any video peripheral and
existing Internet access. Nefsis scalable video and automated bandwidth
throttling adapts to the customer’s network. Nefsis also offers built-in
diagnostic tools and a full suite of IT controls that govern user access,
security, and video features.
