With the ever-growing demand for global communication and interactive collaboration, organizations have constantly requested more and more from their web conferencing product. For years, organizations relied on hosted services for their interactive web conferencing. Hosted applications limit the amount of control organizations have over their web conferencing product. They also lead to expensive ongoing licensing expenses.
The limitations of hosted applications prompted companies that needed more control and more power from their web conferencing product to demand on-premise interactive web conferencing solutions. The market responded with mostly software-based deployment options. These new on-premise products eliminated the ongoing expenses of hosted applications, gave organizations more control, and offered better security.
Soon, organizations realized the typical software-based web conference product had limitations of its own. Despite eliminating ongoing licensing expenses, the solutions usually came with requirements for various pieces of hardware, including computers and servers, as well as database technology, and more. This contributed to high upfront costs when added to the costs of the solutions themselves. Additionally, the solutions demanded more resources and expertise than many organizations could dedicate. Deployment was laborious and maintenance restrictive. These challenges all limited the advantages gained from control over interactive web conferencing.
RHUB, an innovative leader in research and technology with web conferencing product development, heard the continued needs expressed by companies. The company wanted to develop a best in class web conferencing product that would eliminate the ongoing expenses and lack of control common to hosted applications. It also wanted to deal with the lack of resources and expertise most companies struggled with in using software-based on-premise interactive web conferencing.
The result of RHUB’s efforts is a 4-in-1 appliance-based product that allows organizations to get web conferencing, web seminar, remote product, and remote access benefits in one product. Companies can also get the web conferencing combination and remote solutions in separate solutions. The key to the RHUB product is that it greatly improves the global, technology-driven communication that organizations need in today’s interactive business world. Organizations have greater control over the solution because they own it. It is easy to deploy with a one-time, twenty to thirty minute deployment. There are virtually no ongoing maintenance requirements. With a modest, one-time cost for one piece of equipment, there is no better telecommunication value on the market.
