Unified Communications Software

UC-One comes with built-in meeting rooms so you can have productive online team collaboration with full HD video and voice, group messaging, desktop sharing, moderator controls, and easy guest access.

Calendar integration automatically displays everyone’s availability.

• Screen Share – Share your entire screen or just an app, without additional downloads

• Meeting Room – Invite colleagues and guests to your private My Room meeting space, without the hassles of dial-in numbers and passcodes

• Presence status – Remove the guesswork by knowing when a colleague is available to communicate
• History – Never lose track of your chats by viewing yesterday, last week, last month, or all
• Content in common – While you’re chatting, everything you share in common like emails or files, is there at your fingertips

After decades of delays, video has arrived, and is becoming the new voice.

“Video is the new voice” is hardly original, and it’s proven untrue for decades. The hard part about predictions is timing. Of course, there’ll be flying cars and robots that wash our dishes, the question is when. While there’s a lot of interesting new technologies to get excited about, it’s video that’s quietly transforming the way we work and collaborate.

It wasn’t long ago that video communications were limited to science fiction. On Star Trek Captain Kirk brought video communications into our living rooms, and other shows highlighted the concept of portable video on watches and tablets. In “Back to the Future,” when the 1955 Dr. Brown saw a 1985 camcorder, he quipped, “This is truly amazing. A portable television studio. No wonder your president has to be an actor.”
