WebConference, Save on Web Conferences

A webconference is a meeting or communication, of people who are in different locations, that is made possible by the use of the internet.

A solution for web conferences is Breeze, developed by Macromedia. It's a web communications solution for communicating, collaborating and training online. Breeze includes everything needed to create, manage, deliver, and track rich communications. It enables individuals at all skill levels to achieve powerful results in hours, not months, using the familiar PowerPoint application and sharing information over the Internet through standard web browsers in Macromedia Flash format, which is installed on 98% of PCs worldwide, says the developer.

Developer indicates features of this solution such as:
- Instant meetings. Breeze Live works through Macromedia Flash, which is installed on nearly all PCs today. No software download or plug-in installation required.
- Meetings with rich content. Bring PowerPoint slides, digital video, FlashPaper documents, Flash simulations, and other types of media into your live meetings.
- Interact and collaborate. Chat with a few or broadcast to many. Share applications, screens, images and documents with participants. Easily transfer files to facilitate collaborations. Use integrated tools to whiteboard or overlay annotations on slides, video and other content.
- Gather real-time feedback through polls. Quickly create and post real-time polls in your meeting room, and use Breeze reports for further data analysis.
- Customize and expand. Customize meeting room layouts and add your organization’s logos and color schemes. You can even have experts create custom pod plug-ins and integrate with business systems through advanced integration features.
- Leverage content through the centralized, searchable content library* that lets presenters and trainers re-use and re-purpose content throughout the organization.
- Schedule Breeze Meetings with Microsoft Outlook, using familiar features, including integrated address book, availability lookup, and meeting recurrence, and enable meeting attendees to join meetings from within their Outlook calendars.
