Follow on Google News | Filling the Communication Gap with VideoReal-time video conferencing and broadcasting “the next best thing to being there.”
That’s according to a recent white paper exploring the benefits and challenges of video conferencing for small and midsize companies and organizations. “Video fills a communication gap,” said Victor von Schlegell, president of Appia Communications. “When I started in business, all you had was a phone and a fax machine. Today, there’s email, chat, and more. But these are all impersonal forms of communication, which do not allow people to see each other and truly interact. Video fills this gap – it’s the next best thing to being there.” Sourced from an interview with von Schlegell, the paper provides background on video communication, lists the traditional barriers to adoption, and discusses the next-generation solutions that are enabling organizations of all sizes to benefit from video communication.
