Polycom unveils RealPresence CloudAXIS suiteOct 10, 2012 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- Polycom, Inc., a provider of telepresence, video, voice and infrastructure solutions, has unveiled Polycom RealPresence CloudAXIS suite, which allows Polycom customers add anyone on business video applications to their video conferences from a browser. RealPresence CloudAXIS is a suite of software that runs on the Polycom RealPresence Platform in private enterprise clouds or public clouds, and securely extends enterprise-grade video and content collaboration outside the firewall to other businesses (B2B) and consumers (B2C) via a browser, the company said. The RealPresence CloudAXIS Suite is ideal for Polycom partners and service providers to expand from offering Video-as-a-Service (VaaS) to Video Collaboration-as-a-Service (VCaaS) adding applications such as recording and streaming, web conferencing, and collaboration tools. RealPresence CloudAXIS also offers additional value for large enterprises with the RealPresence Platform, enabling customers to create private enterprise clouds to extend video collaboration to other businesses and consumers for B2B and B2C connectivity. "Today Polycom is transforming the industry with a solution that equips our customers to extend enterprise-grade video collaboration to everyone. We're removing the impediments that have hampered video collaboration from becoming ubiquitous by allowing our customers to easily add anyone with a browser to their video and content collaboration sessions with the highest quality, reliability and security," said Andy Miller, CEO, Polycom. "Polycom RealPresence CloudAXIS solutions and our rich suite of open APIs give businesses and service providers the extended interoperability on which to build scalable cloud-based video collaboration services that we believe will deliver new value to customers and create significant new growth opportunities." RealPresence CloudAXIS Suite eliminates the security risks and administrative headaches posed by rogue video solutions and unsupported third-party video clients introduced onto corporate networks by employees who communicate over unsecure connections. RealPresence CloudAXIS also enables enterprises to leverage their investment in existing standards-based Polycom video collaboration systems including room/group, desktop or mobile video solutions and the RealPresence Platform, the company added. http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
