Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2014 16:58:21 +0000 Good day boss, Mezzanine Solution by Joi: I had an excellent meeting with the gentlemen of Oblong (Mike Brown and Darrin Montague) concerning the Mezzanine Video presentation system (combination of video conferencing and remote desktop). If possible, they would like to demonstrate their system to us in their NY office. Their office is across from Penn Station on 30th. If it is possible for Bill, Rich or yourself to go, I would have to make arrangements with them in terms of a date and time. Darrin, who is point in NY, can setup a stage demonstration on any date before the Feb. 25th or after Mar. 4th . This system is a multi-platform solution that allows Windows and iOS (Mac) users to interface simultaneously. They are not 'Droids or 'Windows Mobile' friendly as yet, but will be soon. It has multiscreen and white board interface modules along with a direct connect ability to remote another computer/device in the conference. Not to mention the presentation wand/laser is very unique in its ability control the whole system. This system is more than just a video conference unit. I would rate it as a virtual office. It is a very powerful tool, and they can tailor the system to fit your needs. Once demonstrated, we can begin discussions on the number of systems in terms of locations and styles. This is a video link of the proposed system for your review. http://www.oblong.com/mezzanine/ Chromebox Business Videoconferencing: The Chromebox video conference for business is better than iChat, Facetime, and Skype. The true plus is the multiuser interface, which is about equal to a true "point to multipoint" unit makes it better than the others mentioned. The value in terms of price is no comparison, $999.00 cannot be beaten. There are areas where it does falls short: • The Chrome device works in unison with Chrome "chat rooms" which allow anyone in your contact list to be able to join as long as they have a gmail account and a web cam which is good. The problem lies with the fact that anyone can drop into the meeting, invited or not, as long as they are part of the contact list. • Chromebox has a nice HD camera but it lacks the "follow me technology" that has become popular in high end video conference meetings. • There is a cost $250 of per year after the first year, and includes 24/7 support, cloud chat, and remote monitoring, as well as any other features from Google. This may add up over time. • I don't see any way a third party system can interface this system's protocols. This excludes those who use a high end video conferencing system or those without a gmail account. I can see this system being used as a way to hold daily chats between all managers and you, but I don't see it as a system that will outperform those like Polycomm at this time.
