ABP Becomes First Partner to Bundle New HD Desktop Videoconferencing
Solutions
Avistar Communications Corporation (www.avistar.com),
a leader in unified visual communications solutions, today announced
that ABP Technology, a Dallas-based specialty distributor for IP
technology, has licensed the Avistar
C3 Desktop Standalone Edition™ as part of ABP’s new
videoconferencing portfolio. ABP Technology is the first Avistar partner
to bundle the Avistar
C3 Desktop™ with high definition among its current conference room
offerings, making the bundle an ideal solution for small to medium-sized
businesses.
In making the announcement, Bob
Kirk, CEO of Avistar, said, “ABP Technology offers world-class
solutions that help organizations grow their businesses. Avistar’s
technology and associated components continue to help partners such ABP
Technology deliver world class IP telephony and video products. ABP
Technology’s partners and customers alike will reap the benefits of
videoconferencing anytime, anywhere.”
Robert Messer, President of ABP Technology, added, “With higher quality
resolution, lower hardware costs and higher bandwidth availability,
videoconferencing is exploding. Videoconferencing has always been great
for the boardroom, but now it is cost-effective for any office or work
area, anywhere face-to-face communications improves results. It’s a
green technology that can be applied immediately. The substantially
lower price point of ABP´s Avistar bundle allows our partners to
demonstrate a faster ROI in addition to productivity improvements,
benefits that also accrue to end-users. Faxes became ubiquitous when
they reached the rank and file. We see our clients delivering HD video
in very much the same way, by sending links between workspaces
everywhere in the business world where impromptu face-to-face
communication is advantageous.”
