Avistar Offers Solution for Terminal/Thin Client Market, Delivers Robust
Experience for Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop Users
Avistar Communications Corp. (Nasdaq:AVSR),
a leader in unified visual communications solutions, announced that
Citrix Systems demonstrated the Avistar
C3 Media Engine in the Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop products during
its Citrix iForum 2009 event this week in Edinburgh. See a photo of this
important industry milestone at: http://twitpic.com/7juj7.
The latest component of the award-winning Avistar
C3™ platform, Avistar C3 Media Engine is the only visual
communications application designed to work effectively and efficiently
on the Citrix platform.
“Until now, there was a tremendous pent up demand but no visual
communications solutions for the terminal and thin client market.
Avistar solves an important issue for Citrix users by providing a robust
visual communications experience while leveraging all the benefits of
the Citrix platform,” said Chris
Lauwers, CTO, Avistar. “This development is so important and there
is so much interest for it among the Citrix users that Citrix itself
demonstrated the solution at its iForum conference.”
Citrix is the latest product line to demonstrate Avistar C3
videoconferencing technology working within its applications, joining a
list that includes IBM, Logitech and others. Lifesize Communications
launched their desktop video conferencing solution at InfoComm09 this
week, also built using the Avistar C3 Media Engine and technology.
Avistar C3 Media Engine helps companies to integrate, in a matter of
days, high quality, scalable video and audio conferencing as part of the
unified communications experience on the desktop and thin client.
Additionally, by seamlessly enabling desktop communications within any
software application or web page, companies can promote their brands
while enhancing the value of their products in the market.
