The holiday season is upon us! While many are still out doing their last minute shopping and trying to find the perfect gifts, we’re as busy as elves since our return from Salesforce.com’s Dreamforce event a few weeks ago where we met so many incredible people. And now, we feel like we’re bringing Christmas a little early to many of them as they migrate over to the iLinc web conferencing platform and discover the amazing tricks and time-saving techniques our products offer, particularly when integrated with Salesforce.

We recently participated in SYNNEX’s National Conference in Greenville, SC. SYNNEX Corporation is one of the largest technology distribution companies in the world - with sales of $8 billion per year and their annual conference attracts 250 of the top technology resellers in the country. 

iLinc and SYNNEX have a strategic distribution relationship centered on the SaaS Provisioning Portal. The portal enables approximately 4,000 SYNNEX resellers to access the rapidly-expanding Software As A Service (SaaS) market for iLinc web and video conferencing. 

As a founding vendor of the SaaS Provisioning Portal at SYNNEX, iLinc was on hand to help launch it to the reseller community and the millions of customers they serve.

Many companies are using web conferencing to avoid the headaches and productivity losses associated with travel. In order to justify the cost of these services, many companies would like to have a way to quantify these cost savings. That’s where iLinc’s Green Meter comes in. We received a patent last week for our Green Meter which makes it possible to do just that!

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.
