RHUB Communications Joins Polycom ARENA
Program |
| Santa Clara, Calif. – June 5, 2008 – RHUB Communications, Inc. (RHUB),
the provider of TurboMeeting Web conference solutions, today announced it
has signed an agreement and is now certified as a Polycom ARENA partner
program member. Polycom, a leader in unified collaborative communications,
initiated the ARENA program to allow software application providers,
hardware device manufacturers, and conferencing solution providers to
integrate their products with Polycom’s industry leading unified
collaboration platform to create new applications. RHUB has integrated the TurboMeeting Web conferencing appliance with Polycom unified collaboration platform. The TurboMeeting solution provides for robust data collaboration and interactivity as an extension of Polycom conferencing solutions. TurboMeeting extends the meeting beyond the confines of the conference room. Attendees need only Internet access and a Web browser to participate in the meeting. TurboMeeting is an ideal adjunct to the Polycom suite of products because it is appliance-based rather than hosted, easily integrates with Polycom hardware, provides for full interactivity of computer-based data for all users, and supports the revolutionary NO DOWNLOAD mode for universal attendance. With TurboMeeting, anyone with a browser can join a meeting regardless of platform. TurboMeeting is not competitive with any Polycom product, and fills a need in the Polycom suite of products by providing an integrated Web conference appliance with remote support and remote access to extend the capabilities for data collaboration. TurboMeeting has also been awarded Polycom’s Gold Product Specialist Certification, which assures customers that they are working with an organization that has superior product knowledge, delivers outstanding and consistent technical support, and has a strong relationship with Polycom. The Gold Certificate is Polycom’s guarantee that RHUB has made the commitment and investment to deliver outstanding technology and support. “Customers are investing in solutions that improve productivity, accelerate decision making, and lower costs,” said Larry Dorie, CEO of RHUB. “Through our involvement in the Polycom ARENA program, we are delivering integrated conferencing solutions that address these customer needs. We are pleased to provide customers with an integrated solution that combines Web, video, and audio conferencing in an easy-to-use application.” “Polycom and its ARENA ecosystem partners such as RHUB are focused on proliferating new collaborative communications solutions that will benefit organizations worldwide,” said Mark Roberts, Vice President, Polycom ARENA program. “The TurboMeeting solution addresses data collaboration in all markets. We are pleased to welcome RHUB into the Polycom ARENA program, and look forward to working with them to deliver this important solution to customers.” As part of the agreement, RHUB will leverage the Polycom platform, brand, and channels to bring this solution to market. Polycom ARENA ecosystem partners can develop, test, and certify interoperability between their solutions and the Polycom platform of voice, video, and content collaborative solutions. In addition to platform API’s provided to developers, the Polycom ARENA offers a number of marketing and sales tools for business development managers and marketing and sales professionals, via an online portal. These tools help partners speed time-to-market for their innovative unified collaborative solutions as well as broaden the reach to customers worldwide. Pricing and Availability About Polycom ARENA |
