Infinite Conferencing Video conferencing is a two-way, real-time transmission of audio and video signals between specialized devices at two computers over the internet. The development of video conferencing started back in 1956 with AT&T building their first picture phone testing system. Years after in 1991 the first video/audio conference was held. Founded in 2001, Infinite Conferencing has become one of the best web conferencing services in the industry. It has the ability to boasts a large number of participants over its competitors. With Infinite conferencing you have the ability to serve up to 1,000 viewers at a given time. Small companies may not ever need the access for anywhere nears that number of participants, but by accommodating large online conferences, Infinite Conferencing shows that their features are above average. Supporting 1,000 participants could cause problems audio wise for some but be not Infinite Conferencing. They have a feature called Full Duplex Audio Support; this feature allows you to be able to hear each other speak during the web conference without having to wait for each other. No more choppy conversations or audios. This virtual meeting service is loaded with features that range from helpful IT support to easy-to-read reports for every meeting. With Infinite Conferencing you can get a solution tailored to your specific needs, technical support that is top-notch and available at the click of a button when you need it. You have the ability to invite participants on-the-fly via a link sent in an email. Also as meetings conclude, the presenter receives an in-depth report about who was part of the meeting, how long they attended and what their results if any, this gives you the opportunity to improve the efficiency of your meetings for next time. Also, if any employees miss a meeting, Infinite Conferencing gives you a record of every employee who didn’t attend the meeting and makes it easy to send a copy of the meeting to the employees who could not attend. Who then can watch it for up to 90 days after the original online conference! This web meetings service is very efficient whether you want to start impromptu meetings or carefully planned conferences. The preparation mode is very easy to use and afterward, will give you feedback and tips to help you run future presentations more smoothly. I think this web conferencing service is simple to use and, while you don’t get HD video or other flashy features, it is a basic and dependable system for a large or a small businesses.
