Visitors to Enterprise Connect 2014 Booth #942 will experience the future of video collaboration from ClearOne (NASDAQ: CLRO), a portfolio of solutions that extend from the mobile device or desktop to the conference room. This suite of new products will expand the video collaboration market affordably for small-to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) with self-contained network or cloud solutions. Flexible deployment options allow the solutions to be hosted with ClearOne on-premise infrastructure or to be fully functional without infrastructure, utilizing the ClearOne Spontania cloud.

 

“ClearOne has a balanced approach to the future of video collaboration and the AV industry as a whole,” said David Moss, ClearOne’s Vice President of Video Collaboration Products and Services. “Our complete line of video collaboration solutions spans mobile, desktop, group, and infrastructure; allowing customers to deploy locally or within the cloud. With these flexible options and a feature set far beyond competing solutions, every customer whether a small business or a large enterprise can easily— and more importantly afford to— deploy and scale video collaboration.”

 

Video as a Service (VaaS)– ClearOne’s Spontania cloud service empowers customers to deploy video collaboration without the heavy burden of expensive infrastructure. It also allows service providers and partners to expand their offerings by deploying the technology within their own networks, building on ClearOne technology to further their current solutions and offerings as either a SaaS or PaaS model.

 

For customers who desire an on-premise infrastructure solution, ClearOne now provides COLLABORATE® Control, a single-unit infrastructure server that will serve the needs of both SMBs and enterprise customers hoping to expand locations. The heavy burden of adding video collaboration pervasively has always been the cost of expensive infrastructure solutions. COLLABORATE Control provides the infrastructure component at an unbelievably low price, including directory services, firewall traversal, 24 port MCU, H.323 gatekeeper, SIP registrar, license server, call control, and a full management system.

 

ClearOne now offers a host of desktop and mobile solutions that provide an easy-to-use and scalable multimedia collaboration experience on virtually any device, including Windows®, iOS, and AndroidTM applications. Our solutions allow for high-definition video conferencing, web collaboration, streaming, and recording.

 

ClearOne is introducing a new generation of room-based endpoints that leverage our VaaS offerings and our scalable infrastructure solutions, and can be used behind any industry standard H.323 or SIP-based network. The COLLABORATE Room Pro provides a superior video experience at up to 1080p60 with a host of features not available on competing products, including: built-in streaming and recording, dual camera support, connecting nine locations in a single conference, and more. One of the most exciting functions of COLLABORATE Room Pro is the direct integration with ClearOne’s Beamforming Microphone Array, providing professional conferencing audio without the need for external processing.
