The recent recession may have been a boon for real-time collaboration providers. Some provider may be uncomfortable agreeing with this. The reality is, poor economic conditions provide increase opportunities for great products, especially those that help reduce costs. For others, using web conferencing software is simply an idea whose time has come. Diving into the Current Real-Time Collaboration Trend A company’s decision to use webcasting software can be looked at in the context of the current economic climate. This does not tell the whole story, however. Today’s web conference systems simply allow owners to do so much more than they used to. As providers continue to sharpen their focus, new features are being added, which appeal to business of all sizes. The Run as Admin feature of RHUB Communication’s TurboMeeting 4.1 is one such example. All of this helps to explain the results of a recent survey done by the Association of Corporate Travel Executives. Among the survey’s findings were that: • 55 percent said that in an effort to cut travel cost they would be seeking alternatives • Over 40 percent of those surveyed said that traveling for sales by their companies would be slashed in favor of using webcasting software in the near future. While this reduction in travel may be felt negatively by the travel industry, it should be examined in broader terms. It would seem that the recession was just the push that was needed to examine the way money was spent. The money saved by the use of a web conference solution can mean bigger profits and more jobs in the future. The drop in business travel could be mitigated by an increase in leisure travel. Cutting costs is important for business survival, and anyone would be hard pressed to find a better option than web meetings . Interestingly, the survey also found that the majority of users did not consider internet video conferencing to be “usually effective” in getting things done. This may seem to contradict the growing acceptance of web conferencing, but it merely shows that there is more work to be done. This is especially true when it comes to making individuals more at ease with the technology. Any web conference system can connect two or more parties. Only the best ones will offer the ease of use and the productivity enhancing features which will make their deployment a success. User comments, Ratings and Reviews
