Business Applications

The Growing Demand for Mobile Applications:

Applications; those stylized, customizable user-interfaces to every aspect of our lives. From social media to entertainment and security, we rely on having an app available for everything. In business communications, it’s no different and Cisco recognizes this by delivering a comprehensive tool-set of business-use applications, like voice, video, and web conferencing; messaging; mobile applications; and enterprise social software, to keep you connected and productive.

One of the offerings gaining interest with our client base is Cisco’s Jabber, which is a new unified communications application, that provides a single interface across presence, instant messaging (IM), voice, video, voice messaging, desktop sharing, and conferencing. Very cool. I’ll have more to post on this in the coming months. For now, you can check it out for yourself at: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac49/ac0/ac1/ac258/JabberInc.html

Another great application, that we use within our organization, is Cisco’s WebEx. IPLogic has been providing business-quality video conferencing for years and we are now seeing increased interest in web-based solutions, like WebEx, over an enterprise deployment. As more of today’s businesses need to support a mobile workforce, while still maintaining a means for voice and video collaboration, Cisco’s web conferencing solution helps reduce the costs associated with travel and makes meetings more efficient. With WebEx Meeting Center you can share documents, collaborate in real-time and have face-to-face meetings, from a boardroom, office or your smart phone and even record the entire meeting for review later. Check out this YouTube video on Webex for your iphone: http://www.youtube.com/user/Cisco?v=Ct0KTSHhhg8&feature=pyv&ad=13548270815&kw=cisco and see how easy it is to maintain a collaborative workforce.

IPLogic provides these solution-sets to address real business challenges. Collaboration, beyond Voice and Video, provides you with the ability to connect whomever to wherever, regardless of endpoints or locations.

Real Business Video Applications


Internal meetings between offices or business-to-business communication needs can be a challenge to manage effectively for any size company. A collaborative communications solution can provide you with the ability to connect your office to anyone, anywhere, via video. The benefits of using this communications technology, whether it’s web-based software or an enterprise service, is recognized first in the immediate return on your investment (ROI). Reducing the inefficiencies of travel, the associated expenses and liability are all priorities to any growing business. Efficient use of time in team collaboration and decision-making equals velocity. Velocity in design and velocity in response-times lead to improved sales and revenue growth.

Video communications has now become an expectation of the globalized marketplace, with companies looking to take advantage of outsourcing and expansion opportunities in order to remain competitive with other companies many times their size.

One of our client partners was looking for ways to raise awareness and promote innovation and entrepreneurship, not for one specific company, but rather for companies throughout their regional area.

IPLogic worked with the City of Hermitage, PA in the development of their Technology Incubator center. A regional facility that provides assistance aimed at the development , management and promotion of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) to businesses throughout the Oh-Penn Region. IPLogic designed a conference room video solution that provides for business-to-business communications and presentations, in a general conference area of the facility.

This easy-to-use system now allows for these companies to collaborate with other business partners, on or off-premises, which in turn, helps them grow and bring real value to the community and its vision.

You can check out the eCenter at LindenPointe at www.ecenterlindenpointe.com to see all the exciting ideas and events that they have going on.
