New Polycom software to increase company efficiency
Polycom has introduced an industry-first software solution that provides customers of all sizes with simple, powerful and cloud-ready collaboration technology. The launch comes in light of the increased pressures on organisational networks to operate efficiently on-premises, in hybrid deployments, as well as in the cloud.
The Polycom RealPresence Clariti is simple, powerful and cloud-ready collaboration infrastructure software with support for the broadest selection of collaboration ecosystems and a streamlined licensing model that now includes subscription and perpetual models. It is the first collaboration infrastructure software solution to offer hybrid cloud bursting, an IaaS offering, as an optional cloud service to ensure a seamless connection during spikes in video collaboration usage, whether planned or unplanned.
