Modern technology’s rapid advancement has forever altered the way business is conducted. While technology does not come without hiccups, the overall impact on businesses has been positive – in a variety of ways.

In the video realm, the increasing adoption of conferencing systems is adding a new layer of productivity to businesses around the globe. One of the leading video conferencing systems available on the market today is Cisco Telepresence. With Cisco’s premier video conferencing system, your business has access to the latest technological advancements that make teleconferencing feel like a face-to-face interaction. General research about Cisco Telepresence can get a bit technical though, so we’ve assembled an everyman’s guide to this video conferencing system.

What it Does

Cisco Telepresence video conferencing systems are designed to allow your business to construct the collaboration room of your dreams. The "room" can be as small as a personal camera built into your tablet or computer, as big as a full conference room with interactive technologies, or anything in between. Many companies conduct business across county, state and international borders. So, whether your employees travel constantly or your clients are located half-way around the world, video conferencing systems are designed to give your teams and clients the opportunity to interact as if you were face-to-face.

However, there is a significant difference between face-to-face interaction through standard webcams and video conferencing. By the very name Cisco chose for its product, Telepresence, they are seeking to give your attendees a better presence in the room. Cisco Telepresence systems use multiple cameras, large HD displays and sophisticated hardware and software to ensure that your video conferencing meeting feels less like a phone call and more like a person-to-person meeting. The experience is truly great.

How Does It Work

The difference between Cisco Telepresence video conferencing and the competition is attention to detail and scalability. With a Cisco telepresence solution, your business can easily transform an existing conference room into a sophisticated telepresence system that offers high definition video and audio, with the ability to bring multiple people from different locations into one meeting.

Rather than everyone staring at one camera or small screen, advanced video conferencing systems have multiple cameras and larger displays. This makes it easier for everyone to maintain more natural interaction during a meeting and creates better eye contact with attendees on the other end of the conference.

Cisco’s advanced Telepresence solutions take video conferencing to the next level. These high-quality, immersive experiences allow your company to transform any meeting room into a dedicated video conferencing center. 

Why it’s the Best

Simply put, Cisco Telepresence systems are considered the strongest tools on the market because they bridge the gap between you and your clients. Conferencing is nothing new; businesses have been using conference calls for decades. Cisco Telepresence brings a personal feel to your conference meetings. Instead of simply talking to someone over the phone or webcam, you can now virtually sit face-to-face with them, without physically being in the same room. Cisco has telepresence solutions sized for the small business, all the way to enterprise - and there are price points to fit any company's budget.

Cisco technology brings state-of-the-art technology and positive user experience together to enhance the effectiveness of your remote conferences.
