Results from a 2017 Gallup poll showed that the number of remote workers rose from 39% to 43% in the years spanning from 2012 to 2016. This is in large part due to the rise of online collaborative software and tools that allow remote workers to communicate and seamlessly engage with other team members. Video conferencing technology is one of the enabling technologies that companies are using to expand their talent pool by employing remote employees.

In addition to enabling a remote workforce, video conferencing is finding utility in customer service, employee training, and consultations with experts. This is a big departure from the limited deployment of video conferencing technology in years past.

Traditionally, video conferencing has had a reputation for being expensive and complicated. Companies had to invest in proprietary hardware and software on both ends of the communication channel to make use of video conferencing.

Unfortunately, such hardware and software came at a hefty price. Moreover, the proprietary nature of such video conferencing solutions made it hard, if not impossible, to integrate video chat with other modes of communication and properties.

With the advent of WebRTC, the cost of video conferencing has reduced significantly. WebRTC is a free, open-source set of standards and APIs that make real-time communication across the web possible. The native WebRTC APIs are integrated into platforms such as Android and iOS and in browsers such as Google’s Chrome, Microsoft’s Edge, Apple’s Safari, Mozilla’s Firefox, and many others.

As such, many users looking to utilize WebRTC-based video conferencing can use common-place software and hardware; there is no need to purchase proprietary hardware and software.

Importantly, software developers interested in developing effective and efficient video conferencing software, such as Genesis VideoToGo, do not have to start from scratch. The lower developmental cost allows us to develop highly capable video conferencing tools at a lower price, which allows us to pass on the savings we realize to our customers, helping companies across the globe communicate efficiently and effectively without breaking the bank.

Video and Audio Conferencing: This feature makes it possible to set up an online meeting via the internet. With secure transmissions and end-to-end encryption, the multimedia data exchanged in the meeting remains safe from hackers. Additionally, the web meeting is cross-platform capable, allowing users to attend the web meeting using Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Edge browsers, among others.

Webinar Hosting: With the webinar feature, Genesis VideoToGo clients have access to WebRTC-based 1-to-many multimedia streaming capabilities. Using the webinar feature, one user can reach as many as 200 attendees.

Text Chat: Our chat feature uses a non-discoverable secure text chat to complement the audio and video streams. It allows hosts to chat with the attendees and attendees to chat with the hosts, which is very helpful during webinars. Both public chat (to all attendees), as well as private chat (one-on-one) are supported.

Screen Sharing: Using the screen sharing feature, a web meeting or webinar host can share the view of their active application or desktop. This makes it easy for hosts to give presentations, train the attendees, demonstrate software, or even review documents.

Attendee Registration: This is a webinar feature that allows webinar hosts to invite potential attendees and register them for the webinar session. This feature enables Genesis VideoToGo users to create a registration page for attendees to register. It also allows webinar hosts to send unique links to every registrant. Importantly, the feature has an automatic email reminder, which is sent one hour before the meeting starts.

Secure Meeting Links: This feature allows hosts to generate unique and secure access keys and links for each meeting participant. This goes a long way in improving the security of the meeting. Meeting hosts can revoke the links and access key at any given time should the need arise.

Email Invitation: Our email invitation feature allows hosts to send customized email invitations to participants. With an email invitation, the host can pass the secure key and access key to the participants, limiting access to the meeting or webinar.

File Sharing: Sharing files and documents is easier when using Genesis VideoToGo, owing to our data sharing feature. This feature allows the host and participants to share documents with specific attendees, or with the entire meeting group, seamlessly and intuitively.

Recording: The recording feature allows companies to record meetings for review, training, or archiving. After recording the session, companies can download an .MP4 file to use as they deem fit.

API: The API feature allows companies to integrate the Genesis VideoToGo software into their website, as well as into their online and mobile applications, providing a seamless communication experience.

Private Branding/White Labeling: Companies can take advantage of the white-label version of our web meeting software. Doing so allows companies to brand the entire meeting software to meet their branding needs, making it appear as their very own web conferencing platform.

Customer Colors and Logos: Related to private branding, companies can also add their logos and favicon, color theme, and branding in the web meeting software.
