Competitors: Until HP SkyRoom, companies had only two options for videoconferencing, expensive enterprise telepresence systems or Internet freeware tools that strip out subtleties of human interactions and lack the sharing of rich media content including video and computer-aided design manipulation.
Product Description: HP SkyRoom is affordable HD-quality videoconferencing software with full collaboration for instant face-to-face meetings. Using breakthrough video and image transfer technologies, SkyRoom is the only affordable videoconferencing tool to offer live collaboration for up to four people using rich media content over standard business networks. With SkyRoom, companies now have the power to change the economics of travel and reduce their carbon footprint while preserving the value of highly personal human interaction.
Market Opportunity: Companies that need to share rich media content from video to computer-aided design manipulation
DEMO Says: Consumer video chat services have been nipping at the heals of enterprise video conferencing services, not because they provide the quality of collaboration so much as that they are affordable and easily adopted at an individual or department level. HP's SkyRoom offers high-quality video conferencing and screen-sharing that is very easy for the rank and file to adopt and use. SkyRoom won't replace the high-end conference room video conferencing systems, nor should it for some intensive uses, but it will turn every worker's desktop into a conference station and make virtual teams much more productive.
