Polycom® QSXTM/VSXTM Content Sharing Solution
Expanding Video Conferences to Voice Participants
As video conferencing becomes mission critical for optimal communications and collaboration, a common question arises: “How can I share content with people in the meeting who don’t have video capabilities, or are traveling?” In a world where mobile workers are constantly on the road, the lack of video capability can become a real obstacle to communication.
Polycom has the answer, combining VSX video conferencing solutions with the Polycom QSX web conferencing appliance. Polycom makes video conferencing and content sharing easy to deploy, seamless to use and cost effective, allowing companies to truly enhance group collaboration and boost productivity.
