FOR MAC OSX SERVER
PictureTalk Helps triCerat Inc. Increase Outbound
Sales
Demonstrations by 25 Percent
PLEASANTON, Calif. – Nov. 3, 2003 – Pixion, Inc.,
the leader in cross-platform Web conferencing solutions, today announced
the availability of PictureTalk Enterprise Conference Server (ECS)
for Mac OS X Server. PictureTalk ECS for Mac OS X Server is a powerful
and secure Web conferencing solution offered for Apple's easy-to-use
server platform.
Since PictureTalk ECS for Mac OS X Server offers
high availability and dependable performance, triCerat, Inc., developer
of simple and cost-effective Terminal Services network management
tools, has selected the cross-platform solution for online communications
and interaction with potential and existing clients.
Prior to installing PictureTalk, triCerat used
a hosted solution from another large Web conferencing provider.
But due to restrictions surrounding the ability to track company
usage, as well as excessive overage fees, triCerat sought a new
Web conferencing provider. Installed on triCerat’s Mac OS
X server and behind its network firewall, PictureTalk provides the
company increased visibility around usage, improved performance
and a consistent cost basis. PictureTalk has enabled triCerat to
collaborate in real-time for customer sales presentations, as well
as interact on daily business operations with existing clientele
and internal staff.
“What attracted us to PictureTalk was its
Mac OS X server support, the ability to own the application and
manage it ourselves,” said Alan Auman, senior network engineer,
triCerat. “Being strong Apple supporters, we noticed that
Mac products and Pixion PictureTalk offer many similar features.
PictureTalk is extremely easy to use, powerful, dependable, and
since its installment the solution has broadened our communication
sales outreach by 25 percent.”
Like Apple’s easy-to-use server platform,
PictureTalk’s intuitive, user-friendly interface enables triCerat
employees to communicate in real-time and conduct sales meetings
instantly and without lengthy integration or training. With Pixion’s
unique Capture Frame® technology, triCerat employees are notified
if conference participants have received the shared information
on individual desktops. This enables presenters to adjust the presentation
speed to compensate for the recipient’s system and bandwidth
differences.
“With PictureTalk, triCerat will be able
to tailor the product for their business communication needs, as
well as have the flexibility to communicate virtually with anyone,
anywhere, at any time,” said Robert Boese, vice president
of operations and general manager, Pixion. “Using PictureTalk,
triCerat will increase productivity, save money and open up a wide
array of communications opportunities."
Designed to run on any server platform, including,
Windows®, Solaris™, and now Mac OS X Server, PictureTalk
ECS eliminates network bottlenecks and enables meeting presenters
and participants to capture information in real-time from their
desktop, and easily share and collaborate over the Internet with
an unlimited number of attendees.
