Short Term and Long Term Video Conferencing Solutions

Over the years we have seen many video conference systems fall into disuse for a number of reasons.  One is that they become obsolete and no longer meet the needs of their users.  Another is that because early hardware and communications modes were sometimes less than reliable, people lost faith in them as a communications tool.  Most often though, the ongoing expense of long distance charges on ISDN made you think twice before using videoconferencing for long conferences.  Whatever the reason, as we have installed equipment in boardrooms and classrooms throughout Ontario, we’ve stumbled on hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of disused, older videoconferencing equipment.

It has always been easy to show the benefit of videoconferencing when you compare it to the total cost of air or ground travel.  We also know that a convenient video conference link can encourage more spontaneous communication between remote offices.  But as we’ve already mentioned, sometimes these tools become overlooked as time goes by and situations change.  Edcom Multimedia Products is offering a solution to the concern that in the long term, expensive videoconferencing equipment will fall into disuse.  We are offer variable term solutions that address your financial and communication needs for the short, medium and long terms. 

Edcom Multimedia Products offers three products to suit your needs:

A short-term conference and data communication package provides a fixed monthly fee for videoconferencing.

A mid-term package allows more integration into existing audio and video systems and includes inter-office data communications.  Once again, this package is offered in the form of flexible equipment and bandwidth packages with easy monthly rates.

An even more cost-effective package for long-term usage accommodates permanent installation and more complete integration with existing telephone, data and video communications.

Here’s an example.  A simple, point to point video conference system that includes a 30” LCD monitor with speaker system, set-top IP conference codec, omnidirectional desk mic, DSL connection, IP address and modem will cost as low as $549 per month on a 1 year agreement.  This system provides unlimited point to point, IP videoconferencing.  This package includes full replacement warranty, use of Edcom test sites as well as assistance booking conference facilities in cities all over the world.
