Video conferencing has become the communication and collaboration method of choice for organizations intent on keeping remote employees and distant customers connected to home base, and Polycom has been at the leading edge of the video revolution for some time now. Polycom’s RealPresence desktop and web solutions make video-based collaboration possible anywhere at any time.
But this doesn’t mean you should abandon telephone conferencing altogether. The idea of an audio conference call might seem downright anachronistic once you’ve experienced a face-to-face video conference rendered in crystal clear HD, but there will likely always be a time and a place for a good old-fashioned phone call. Maybe you have a client whose video solution isn’t compatible with yours. Or maybe your client simply does not want to meet via video. You must be prepared to accommodate such preferences. And you know what? Maybe you just don’t want to make yourself presentable for every meeting. That’s perfectly understandable.
Except phone calls aren’t really old-fashioned anymore. At least not where Polycom is concerned. In addition to its cutting-edge video solutions, Polycom continues to innovate in the realm of audio communication.
With Polycom RealPresence Trio, your ideas about what a desktop phone can and should do will be forever changed. Features like Enhanced HD Voice and exclusive NoiseBlock technology (which eliminates pesky background interference) provide an audio experience that will make you wonder how you ever settled for a standard cell phone connection. And with 360-degree microphone coverage that extends the phone’s reach to twenty feet, Trio is the ideal phone for larger conference rooms.
But we all know that phone calls can often turn into opportunities for more complex collaborative tasks. Which is why RealPresence Trio is designed with video options in mind. By adding the RealPresence Trio Visual+ accessory, your phone can be transformed into a multimedia hub from which you can share documents, presentations, photos and even videos with folks in the room as well as remote participants. And with the addition of a USB camera, you can even gain access to the kind of HD video conference experience you would have with Polycom’s other RealPresence solutions.
So, okay, you caught us. We kind of lied about the whole audio-only thing. The Trio is, without a doubt, a peerless audio solution. But with calendar integration and the aforementioned visual collaboration tools, it’s clear that Polycom is still helping you cover all the bases.
