VCS and Video Communication & Collaboration

Could your company & employees benefit from face-to-face conversations with people in remote locations without actually going there? Would collaboration and document sharing make these conversations even more effective? If so, you need Toshiba's Video Communication Solution (VCS)! Toshiba has made video applications virtually as easy to use as a traditional telephone, and because it's compatible with Toshiba's Strata® CIX family of IP telephone systems, VCS offers a very affordable entry point into video communication and collaboration.

VCS provides affordable point-to-point, three-party video communication, desktop/application sharing, file transfer, and message board capabilities. VCS brings video telephony to Toshiba's IP telephones, digital telephones and SoftIPT™ soft phones by adding video communications to traditional voice conversations. From the Session Member List, users can view all VCS members and can easily select those members they wish to take part in their collaboration sessions. Users can share their Windows desktop and applications with each other, allowing them to enjoy a multimedia collaboration experience.

Maximizes Productivity via Remote Video Communication and Collaboration

VCS applications take productivity to a new level by allowing remote workers to see, hear, interact and collaborate on projects together, no matter where they are physically located. Whether it's used for daily organizational calls or VIP communication, you can conduct remote in-person meetings, virtual work group discussions, field engineer support, sales staff support, product prototype demonstrations and much more. Because it takes the place of face-to-face meetings, VCS can dramatically reduce the cost of business travel and can enhance productivity and quality of work.
