IMCONFERENCING INTEGRATES WITH GOOGLE TALK
IMConferencing Extends Reach of Google Talk by Facilitating Web Meetings,
Group Chats,
File Transfers & More
TORRANCE, Calif., August 25, 2005 — LiveOffice Corp. (www.liveoffice.com)
today announced upcoming plans to integrate its IMConferencing (www.imconferencing.com)
web conferencing system with Google Talk.
IMConferencing's latest interoperability capability will allow Google
Talk users to instantly
connect to IMConferencing's powerful web, audio and video conferencing
platform, making it
easy for users to launch full-featured online meetings and collaboration
sessions to one or several
participants. Only the host of the IMConferencing session needs to be
a registered user, which
gives participants even quicker access to the collaboration session because
they do not have to
pre-register with IMConferencing in order to use the service.
Once a meeting host using Google Talk clicks the Start Meeting button
in their instant messenger
window, participants can join an IMConferencing meeting and begin using
a variety of
collaboration tools, including:
- Mixed telephone and VoIP audio conferences that allow multiple
participants to
connect into a single teleconference (e.g. Participant A can connect
via standard
telephone, while Participant B can connect into the same audio conference
via VoIP)
- Multi-point and hi-definition video conferences that accurately
duplicate the in-person meeting experience
- Desktop/application sharing that allows the host and participants
to jointly view and
collaborate on any application or document from their respective
PCs
- Full file transfer capabilities that allow participants to quickly
distribute important
documents from their PC
"LiveOffice's IMConferencing picks up where Google Talk leaves
off and supports Google's
vision to simplify instant communication across the web," said
Steve Uhring, vice president of
sales and marketing for LiveOffice Corp. "IMConferencing's full
integration with Google Talk
makes it easier than ever before to launch instant web collaboration
sessions to multiple
participants and gives users fast access to the web, audio and video
conferencing tools they need
to make their day more productive and efficient."
Pricing and Availability
The current version of IMConferencing, which competes with WebEx
and Microsoft
LiveMeeting, is available now at a cost of $50 per seat license per
month. The integrated version
of IMConferencing and Google Talk will be available in Q4 2005.
