Web Conferencing Appliance Enhances Telecommuting Opportunities

One of the benefits of the latest round of advancements in web conferencing solutions is improved opportunities for companies to utilize telecommuting with employees. During the technology boom of the mid to late 1990s telecommuting became extremely popular with tech employees, and valued by employers. The benefits of telecommuting and use of remote employees is that employers can broaden their search for top talent with less location restrictions.

Despite the understood advantages of using telecommuters, the trend slowed significantly into the 21st century as companies could not find a cost-effective and beneficial web conference product to meet their needs. Companies found they could use a common hosted application for web conference services, which entails expensive ongoing service fees, or they could buy an on-premise solution for more secured web conferencing. However, the software based web conferencing solutions available were expensive and required multiple pieces of technology, including an operating system, database server, web server, separate computer, and software installation.

RHUB, an innovator in web conferencing set a goal to address the desire expressed by the majority of companies for an on-premise solution. They wanted to meet the demands of consumers in a very special way, however, by also addressing the expensive up-front costs and difficult deployment associated with typical web conferencing software. As a result, organizations can now use an appliance-based on-premise solution that provides the advantages of on-site control without the drawback of high costs and difficult deployment.

Companies that rely on telecommuters can use RHUB’s Web Conferencing Appliance as a stand alone web conference solution. This enables companies and remote employees to hold interactive web conferences. Organizations can also add the RHUB remote access appliance and remote support appliance to create a 4-in-1 solution. This full service collaboration tool with remote support also enables employees to utilize desktop sharing so they can work with files from their office computer while at home, or they can help fix problems on-site from a remote location.

The powerful combination of benefits available through the appliance-driven web conferencing equipment is unmatched in terms of value to the market. Organizations of all types can improve their web seminars, web conferencing, and remote support capabilities. The great advantage with the RHUB web conferencing solution is that it is on-premise but only requires one product, not multiple pieces of equipment. Companies have complete control over their web conferencing but they do not have the expensive costs tied to other solutions. Deployment is a one time, 20-30 minute process, and there are virtually zero on-going IT maintenance requirements.
