Nefsis Video Conferencing Reports 90% of Customers Opt for its Cloud-Based Offering Versus On-Premise Alternatives - Up from 50% in 2008

 

SAN DIEGO, June 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Online services innovator Nefsis® reported today on the continuing shift from premise-based infrastructure to cloud-based video conferencing solutions among business customers. Nefsis offers multipoint HD video conferencing for desktops and rooms, with built-in advanced collaboration tools. The Company's technology is available via cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) delivery and on-premise installable software alternatives. Nefsis reports its product mix has grown to 90% in favor of cloud-based delivery.

"Of course our own customer base isn't necessarily representative of the broad market, but our product mix is an interesting data point because it's the same software, whether running on our cloud or customer-provided servers. 90% pick 'cloud,' up from 50% three years ago," said Tom Toperczer, Nefsis Vice President of Marketing. "We attribute this growth to the customer benefits of cloud computing: it's far less expensive and easier to expand versus infrastructure hardware alternatives such as video routers, multichannel units, and gateway servers," he elaborated.

Nefsis represents a new approach to multiparty business video conferencing, where just an online service subscription and any webcam or video peripheral is all that is needed for successful conferences. It takes only minutes for a conference host to activate an account, invited participants merely click on a web link. The latest software-based technologies such as cloud computing, scalable video and automated bandwidth throttling provide the best quality video possible over existing networks, up to and including multipoint HD. "Matching endpoint equipment and 'speeds and feeds' is a complexity of the past, making video conferencing much easier today," remarked Mr. Toperczer.  

The Company's technology can be deployed as an online service and on-premise, single- or multiple-server configurations, providing the full spectrum of pure, hybrid, and private cloud options. Nefsis expects to continue offering the latter to satisfy a long list of specialty requirements including customer PKI integration, UC integration, mixed wireline and satellite VPNs, and anywhere IT staff require more detailed controls over routing, access, and security.
