Advantages Of Video Conferencing Systems

By Marlene Blevins


The technology today has allowed people in different locations to be able to communicate like they were in the same place. This has been made possible through video conferencing systems that allow people to use the internet to communicate on audiovisual screens while in different locations. These structures have evolved tremendously since they were invented a few years ago. There are four different types which can cost an organization different amount of money.

All the different types of conferencing systems are usually used by private businesses and also government agencies to hold conferences. One of them is the telepresence system that allows a person to be in a conference meeting with other participants from other locations. There are two types of telepresence structures namely the room based and the portable ones.

These structures are however quite costly and can only be afforded by those organizations that are already well established. They are expensive because they are made using HD flat screened with high quality codecs and a good audio system. They are usually made in diverse sizes and capabilities so the organizations can have a variety to choose from.

The second kind of advanced meeting systems are the integrated structures that are most likely bought by smaller sized offices and schools. In this kind of system, the hardware and codec are usually permanently fixed on one location. It comes with a lot of capabilities in terms of display and the cameras. This is cheaper than the previous system thus they are suitable for middle sized organizations.

Another kind of system is a set top box that also has video conferencing capabilities. The set top box has various advantages when compared to others mentioned above such as their light nature which makes them very portable. This means that the organization will not have to be in one room every time they want to hold a meeting. The system is also quite affordable thus small organizations can easily acquire them.

One of the most affordable structures to acquire are however the desktop communication structures. This basically just needs one to have a computer and a webcam. It can even be used by people who work at home and even those who wish to communicate with their loved ones who are far away. This system only needs one to have the communication software on their computer or use other applications like Skype and yahoo.

There are very many benefits of choosing to buy these facilities. One of the benefits is that the organization will reduce the costs that are spent on traveling from one place to another. Apart from the money this also saves a lot of time. Before choosing a specific system however, the organization needs to looks some factors such as the size of the room and the number of people attending the meetings.

When buying a conferencing system, the organization must choose one that is likely to last long. These things are quite expensive and it is not good for the business to keep spending money on them. Once an organization has embraced the new methods of communication it will be hard for them to go the old ways again.
