AVer has just announced the certification of the AVer CAM520 Conferencing Camera for Google Hangouts Meet hardware.  The CAM520 has been a big seller since it’s launched and we presume this certification will make it even more attractive.

AVer has quickly become one of the preferred brands for use with software-based videoconferencing systems, with sales growth in 2017 of over 200% in the Australian market for the Aver USB conference cameras.

Zoom is the leader in modern enterprise video communications, offering an easy and reliable cloud platform for video and audio conferencing across mobile, desktop, and room systems. Zoom isn’t just another cloud based videoconferencing bridge; it’s a platform you can build on.

It was a real pleasure to have participated in such an important and meaningful project. One of the most prestigious schools in Australia required a video conferencing solution for their learning programs, and we had the honour to help them successfully achieve their goal.

Whenever we think of a conference phone, without a doubt, Polycom has earned its way into our minds. The iconic 3-legged device has been 25 years in the market and counting. It has remained as a leader and that is the result of meticulous attention to detail from Polycom. 

The 3-legged shape has a reason - a very well thought one – and that is why it has kept that shape. It is not just for aesthetics, but also for the basic science of acoustics.

Conferencing is used more and more every day for business collaboration, whether it is in a conventional corporate conference room, a two-person call in an office or attending a call from home. Research conducted by Wainhouse, revealed that the use of audio conferencing doubled from 2010 to 2015 worldwide with an estimated of 150 billion minutes of use in 2014. Prices dropping in half was a catalyst for this outcome.
