Gruveo brings its easy, secure video calls to Internet Explorer and Safari

BRATISLAVA, Slovakia - March 3, 2015 - PRLog -- ASM Systems Ltd. today announced an update to its Gruveo web app (www.gruveo.com) that adds support for the Internet Explorer and Safari browsers on desktop. Gruveo’s easy, secure and no-registration video calls in IE and Safari are made possible with the Temasys WebRTC plugin, a free and quick install on Windows and Mac OS X. With the latest update, Gruveo now works in all major desktop browsers in addition to Android and iOS.

Gruveo users in IE and Safari are prompted to install a free plugin that enables the WebRTC technology in those browsers. Once the plugin is installed, Gruveo works out of the box enabling encrypted, peer-to-peer video and voice calls with clients on other platforms. Gruveo requires no plugins in Chrome, Firefox and Opera on desktop and Android where WebRTC support is native.

The WebRTC plugin is developed by Temasys, a Singapore-based company that is part of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards committee and the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) working group.

“Adding support for Internet Explorer has been the #1 request from the enterprise users of Gruveo,” said Art Matsak, ASM Systems CEO. “We are closing this gap with the help of the excellent Temasys plugin so Gruveo now works in all major desktop browsers.”
