Business Wire
Avistar Communications Corporation (www.avistar.com), a leader
in unified visual communications solutions, today announced that
its advanced conferencing and collaboration solution, Avistar C3
Conference™, now delivers cloud-ready, HD-quality, multiparty
videoconferencing at a fraction of the cost of similarly sized
hardware-based multipoint control units (MCU).
Avistar C3 Conference™ is the industry’s only all-software,
enterprise-class multiparty videoconferencing platform that
seamlessly interoperates with standards-based room systems and
desktops. Designed to scale and support the needs of large
enterprise deployments, cloud providers and technology partners,
Avistar C3 Conference™ delivers critical multiparty
videoconferencing features such as transcoding and transrating for
each participant in every conference. With virtually unlimited
conferencing scalability capabilities, which can be deployed
on-premise or via the cloud, the Avistar C3 Conference™ solution
dramatically lowers the cost of multiparty videoconferencing on the
desktop, across conference room solutions and out to leading
unified communications solutions, and makes this solution
affordable for a much wider range of organizations.
In a recent benchmark study of the Avistar C3 Conference™
solution using Intel Xeon E7-8837 processors in a Dell PowerEdge
R910 Rack Server, the Avistar solution delivered 32-port,
HD-quality, multiparty videoconferencing for a list price of $1,750
per port including the cost of all software licensing and hardware.
Avistar competitors’ prices range in cost from $4,000 to $7,000 per
port for similar performance and features (including software and
hardware).
Stephen Epstein, Chief Marketing Officer, Avistar, said, “This
breakthrough in multiparty videoconferencing processing, price
performance and cloud enablement has largely been accomplished by
the optimization of the Avistar C3 Conference media processing, the
ability to use multiple servers to create a virtual single MCU and
the continued performance improvements of off-the-shelf, standards-
based server hardware. Our partners and clients can now deliver
on-premise or on-demand multiparty videoconferencing capabilities
to extremely large user and client bases, at a price point that
historically was not achievable.”
Epstein added, “The Avistar C3 Conference™ solution is a
significant milestone for the videoconferencing industry as other
MCU manufacturers will be forced to rethink their MCU strategies to
remain competitive. Based on the greatly enhanced value and
performance of our conferencing and collaboration solution,
enterprise businesses and OEM vendors will benefit from these
industry changes and the significant price and scalability
improvements that the Avistar C3 Conference™ solution
delivers.”
