AGT is previewing a new desktop video client and the next generation of the EncoreB2B mobile video app. Delivered via video-as-a-service, both solutions can be white-labeled and bring together PC and Mac desktops to a variety HD conference room systems (Cisco, Polycom, Lifesize, AVer and others), mobile devices, Web browsers, Microsoft Lync, and will also support WebRTC and GoogleTalk. They both offer e-mail and URI entry for meetings, allowing users to join by entering an e-mail address.
“Being a provider in a market that is both crowded and experiencing dramatic growth, it is critical for us to deliver managed and cloud video solutions that are not only purpose-built for today’s high demand for agnostic video conferencing, but provide our end users and partners an easy and intuitive method for conferencing from any platform,” explained Ben Atha, CEO of AGT. “In addition to offering a variety of deployment options, our new desktop video client and redesigned mobile video apps demonstrate unprecedented capabilities, including email dialing and lookup services, video neighborhoods for cooperative enterprises, a unique firewall traversal technique and full branding.”
The desktop video client connects PC and Mac desktops with HD conference rooms, tablets, smartphones, Microsoft Lync and Web browsers. It offers customizable screen layouts, high-resolution content, e-mail/URI dialing, improved continuous presence, real-time reporting and more. The client will be available in Q3 and will also include WebRTC and GoogleTalk integration. For users without install capabilities and guests, AGT will continue to offer the EncoreB2B Web browser client.
The new EncoreB2B mobile video app is compatible with iOS and Android and AGT manages the entire application development process for partners interested in selling their own branded versions, the company said.
