Inter-Company Telepresence and Video Conferencing Exchanges To Accelerate Demand for Telepresence and Video Conferencing

Says The Industry’s First Review of Exchange Services and Providers

February 16, 2010 –Northborough MA and Ashburn VA –Brockmann & Company, the customer insight firm and Human Productivity Lab, an independent research firm and consultancy have published the first review of inter-company telepresence and video conferencing exchanges. “The Inter-Company Telepresence and Video Conferencing Exchange Review” which educates CIOs, executives, managers, telepresence and video conferencing professionals about the opportunities, challenges, capabilities and features of the leading exchanges.

“Most inter-company sessions are like long distance calls of seventy years ago – with manual setup and long lead times that are used to overcome the complex networking, addressing and security issues. The Exchange Review helps to lay the framework to an automated experience that users expect,” said Peter Brockmann, co-author of the Exchange Review and President of Brockmann & Company.

“Video and telepresence services can only reach their greatest market potential when users can easily communicate beyond their video managed service provider and carrier. Exchanges are the necessary infrastructural element to do exactly that,” said Howard Lichtman, Exchange Review co-author and President and founder of the Human Productivity Lab.

The Telepresence and Video Conferencing Exchange Review is immediately available today for US$1,750.00 through secure online ordering at http://www.brockmann.com or http://www.telepresenceoptions.com/exchangereview. Services discussed and reviewed include AT&T Business Exchange, BCS Global's Global Video Exchange, BT Conferencing's Global Video Exchange, Cisco, Easynet Managed Virtual Meeting, Glowpoint's Telepresence interExchange Network, IPV Gateways, MASERGY, Telemerge, Teliris and Verizon Business' Immersive Video Exchange.
