Polycom and All Communications Corporation Announce Treament For Videoconferencing Software
SAN JOSE, Calif., and HILLSIDE, N.J., Jan. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Polycom®, Inc. (Nasdaq: PLCM - news), the global leader in group videoconferencing, and All Communications Corp., Inc. (OTC: ACUC - news) today announced an agreement to develop remote access and diagnostics software that further enables remote access to Polycom ViewStation(TM) group videoconferencing systems. This software will provide Polycom ViewStation users with additional flexibility for remote access to ViewStation systems for maintenance, diagnostics and upgrades, and will be available in Q3 1999 to all Polycom customers through Polycom's extensive global channel network.
''Based on feedback from our customers who demand the remote access capabilities of ViewStation, we were looking to create a simple software solution that gives Viewstation users an alternate way to access the remote maintenance and diagnostics features that are available across the ViewStation product line,'' said Richard Reiss, CEO of All Communications.
''As we continue to broaden our videoconferencing product offerings, we also continue to search for ways of making ViewStation more accessible, easier to maintain and easier to use,'' Craig Malloy, general manager of Polycom's videoconferencing division. ''We're very pleased to work with All Communications to continue to develop technology that makes ViewStation the ultimate videoconferencing solution.''
Available in several versions that offer video performance from 128kbps up to 768kbps full motion video, the Polycom ViewStation incorporates the industry's first implementation of an embedded Web server as a standard feature, which enables easy access for remote system management and diagnostics, simple software upgrades via the Internet or intranet, and also provides a convenient and reliable way to display presentations from local or remote connections.
