Alliance Delivers Distribution Channel with Click to Meet® Real-Time Collaboration Solution; Companies Join Forces, Enabling RADVISION to Market Duet Speakerphone with Click to Meet
Boston, MA, VON Conference and Expo and Fair Lawn, NJ – September 21, 2005 – RADVISION (Nasdaq: RVSN), a leading provider of multimedia conferencing and communications platforms, and Phoenix Audio Technologies, a leading provider of full duplex speakerphones for webconferencing and softphone VoIP, announced a marketing partnership aimed at delivering an enhanced Click to Meet conferencing experience.
The Phoenix Audio Duet Speakerphone will be marketed to RADVISION’s channels and via direct sales. This will provide enterprises with unique and effective multimedia communications in the conference room environment.
Click to Meet is a highly scalable solution for delivering voice, video, and data collaboration throughout the organization. Click to Meet is deployed and used for online team meetings, training, and one-to-one sessions. Click to Meet conferences people on multiple devices regardless of their location: at their desk, in a conference room, or on the road. Wherever there’s an Internet connection, Click to Meet delivers an enhanced audio and visual interaction.
Duet is an easy to use, effective and portable speakerphone that delivers clear audio communications to Click to Meet users when in a conference room setting, where typically there is more than one person. Phoenix Audio Technologies’ echo cancellation, noise suppression and voice level compensation algorithms generate boardroom conference audio quality, everywhere. Duet provides full duplex, echo-free communications for Click to Meet users in conference rooms where normal PC audio systems are not sufficient.
“Our Duet speakerphone enhances the Click to Meet user experience by delivering full duplex, headset-free communication and creating a natural conferencing environment. The hardware component in multimedia conferencing is a variable that can make the difference. RADVISION’s endorsement of our Duet speakerphone acknowledges this difference,” explains Myles Rush, Vice President, Phoenix Audio Technologies. “By partnering with RADVISION, Phoenix Audio Technologies products access a distribution channel with an industry leader, ultimately providing advanced solutions to the user community.”
“Click to Meet is the most effective and natural means of meeting on the web. The Duet speakerphone optimizes the conferencing experience for Click to Meet end users with boardroom like audio conferencing quality,” said Ray Glynn, Vice President Sales, RADVISION. “Audio quality is critical to the Click to Meet end-user experience, and we are happy to partner with Phoenix Audio and the Duet Speakerphone.”
