Vidtel MeetMe service is a cloud-based any-to-any video conferencing service. MeetMe seamlessly bridges traditional SIP and H.323 hardware endpoints, SIP soft clients like Cisco Jabber, WebRTC-based browsers, and consumer applications like Google Talk and Skype.  BurstPoint's broad and scalable capture and recording capabilities can ingest any video-based feed from Vidtel and enable enterprise-wide streaming, distribution and management of HD content. Viewership with the BurstPoint VCP can be accomplished with any device.

"This solution is critical for companies leveraging cloud video for business-to-business collaboration," said Alex Doyle, vice president of marketing at Vidtel. "Cloud-based video conferencing, any-to-any interoperability, and WebRTC have transformed the market, allowing any size company to leverage video for B2B communication.  With that B2B focus, the ability to record and manage your conference recordings is a vital requirement, and we're delighted to showcase our joint solution with BurstPoint."

"It is impressive how video communications are breaking out of traditional meeting rooms - even between companies. As a broader more pervasive form of communication, it requires more diligence and oversight as available with other modes. The video recording and management capabilities of the Vidtel-BurstPoint offering provides for an elegant solution that demonstrates the power of their open architectures," said David Michels, Principal of TalkingPointz.

"The adoption of video as a means of communication coupled with the number of protocols and applications in the market continues to grow. End users demand broader capabilities and more seamless integration points," stated BurstPoint Networks vice president of marketing and business development David Safaii. "The BurstPoint Vidtel channel-friendly partnership empowers any video conferencing end-user to Connect, Record, Manage and Stream simply and seamlessly, thus providing the most integrated and scalable means of video communications in the market today."

The joint solution will be demonstrated at the Enterprise Connect show at the Gaylord Palms in Orlando, Florida, March 18 through 21, 2013 in the Vidtel booth (#1337).
