Web hosting through companies like WebEx or Citrix’s GoToMeeting offer

web conferencing for a monthly fee and there is no guarantee everyone who needs to attend the meetings will be able to download the software because of firewall restrictions or download boundaries from their own company.

RHUB’s 4-in-1 Appliance is a piece of equipment a company purchases for a one time fee. There is a no-download option for attendees so anyone who has a browser can access a meeting.

On Premise Web Conferencing Solution vs Hosted Solutions

Today’s global businesses depend on Web conferencing solutions to help cut down cost on travel, increase productivity, and provide immediate collaboration among colleagues. When your company chooses to position itself with web conferencing, you need to know which solution best fits your business model.

Should you select a hosted solution such as WebEX or GotoMeeting or choose an on-premise web conferencing solution such as TurboMeeting by RHUB? When you compare the choices, immediately, you will see stark differences. Hosted web conferencing solutions offer a software code that resides on their server, known as the SaaS option. With a SaaS option you have to pay ongoing monthly fees and download and install software from the vendor. This is less secure and lacks customization.

When Government Entities Need a Web Conferencing Solution

Web conferencing solutions are becoming important tools for communication and collaboration. As these solutions become more affordable, Government entities are recognizing the productive cost effectiveness in doing business across geographic boundaries in order to take action in real-time.

However, security mandates, regulatory statutes, technical requirements and other factors have limited them to a few options available. Hosted web meetings, such as WebEx or GoToMeeting cannot resolve these issues. That is why a web conference appliance such as TurboMeeting by RHUB may be the perfect solution.
