iLinc Web and Video Conferencing Blog Collaborate and communicate online

We wrapped up iConnect 2010 yesterday and it was fabulous! This year we took the plunge and held our annual user conference 100% virtually and what a difference! We had nearly 1,300 people registered and 800 participated over the 2 day conference. That was about 3 times the number of participants we had last year. Our customers suggested we make the event virtual this year so that more organizations and more people within their organizations could attend…so we did and they came!

When presenting in an iLinc session, you are provided with many different tools that you can use to deliver your content. These range from PowerBoards, White Boards, WebSync, Polling Questions, and of course the most versatile option – Sharing. Whenever you are looking to present content that doesn’t seem to fit into the other options, Sharing is the tool you should turn to! Whether you are looking to walk your students through a Course Syllabus PDF or you’re demonstrating your own software program to a prospect, the iLinc Sharing tool is the tool that will get the job done for you.

These days, with everyone looking to cut costs, it’s only natural to be focused on delivering the most cost-effective training, webinar or presentation. This of course raises the question of when to use Internet audio versus a traditional teleconference. Teleconferences are an easy way to get started with web conferencing but usually the cost of this option is greater. Depending upon the goals of your session, the audience you are targeting and your available budget, the answer may differ. If you need some advice in this area, we are always happy to help advise you on what may be the most appropriate option for your iLinc activity.
