Telepresence

business challenge

In today’s connected economy, decisions need to be made quickly and collaboratively. In-person meetings and audio and web conferencing don’t always get the job done. You need to reduce the cost of travel and curb carbon emissions, while maintaining the ability to meet face-to-face with colleagues and clients.

our solution

With Telepresence, meeting face-to-face without travelling is no longer an oxymoron. Telepresence is turbo-charged videoconferencing and brings virtual meetings to life. It is based on market-leading Cisco technology and features high-definition video and directional audio for rich, life-like interaction. With low latency, life-size images, attendees will feel like they are sharing the same room.

our approach

Our fully-managed solution includes consulting, design, deployment, connectivity, and operational support and management. Systems range from a small executive one-person Telepresence solution to a six-seat virtual boardroom featuring three 1080p plasma screens, multiple cameras, crystal clear 3D sound and whiteboarding facility. Telepresence traffic is carried on our global IP VPN network with rigorous SLAs to ensure voice and video latency of less than 150 milliseconds, for a high-quality experience.

the result

For its users, Telepresence is a superior collaboration tool compared with audio, web, or videoconferencing. It is proven to have a higher utilization rate than videoconferencing so you can achieve a rapid return on investment. Our fully-managed solution means that we take care of the technology leaving you to arrange meetings simply by sending a calendar invitation and launching the conference with the push of a button.

business benefits

The reduction in air travel alone will have a dramatic impact on reducing your business costs as well as your carbon footprint. In addition, Telepresence can be the platform for bringing together time-starved decision makers to make critical decisions more quickly, more often. And, training with Telepresence can be more effective and efficient than using web-based distance learning.
