Skype Falls Short as a Web Conferencing Tool for Everyday Business Use Says webconferencing-test.com


Frankfurt (PRWEB) October 15, 2010

The Internet telephony and chat application Skype is not really suitable for online business meetings and web conferencing. That is the conclusion of the testing portal webconferencing-test.com, which has taken a closer look at the new version of Skype. Skype ranked near the bottom on account of its limited desktop sharing/screen sharing capabilities, and the lack of features for planning and inviting participants to online conferences.

Webconferencing-test.com chose to include Skype in its ranking system because the VoIP provider recently expanded its functionality to make it more attractive to business users. The main innovation is the ability to share desktops with other Skype users. While Skype version 5 now allows up to ten users to take part in a video call (previously only two), the new release is a disappointment when it comes to online business meetings: The far more important desktop-sharing feature remained restricted to just two users.

Skype also lost points because online meetings can still only be convened on the fly, and the system requires both Skype users to be logged on simultaneously. Because Skype does not offer netting-conference planning, it comes as no surprise that users cannot send invitation emails, along with calendar entries, to their Skype contacts. Most other popular web conferencing tools provide this.

An overview of Skypes performance across all assessment categories can be found at webconferencing-test.com. For a discussion of the background and details of the Skype test, see the test portal blog.

Free ‘Rules of The Road’ January 24th Webinar Presented By Sean McKay, Vice President Of Business Development At American IRA-A National Provider Of Self-Directed IRAs


Lexington, KY (PRWEB) January 18, 2012

Sean McKay, Vice President of Business Development at American IRA-a National Provider of Self-Directed IRAs, announces free ‘Rules of The Road’ January 24th Webinar.

Sean Mckay says “We developed this webinar to help get the word out about things that people need to avoid within their self-directed IRA so that they can properly acquire assets. The feedback we received from our first month of these webinars was so overwhelmingly positive that we have decided to continue to offer this webinar each month.”

Topics that will be covered in this webinar include but are not limited to:

*Disqualified Persons
*Self-dealing
*Conflicts of Interest
*Direct Prohibited Transactions
*Proper Acquisition of Assets
*and much more…

When Congress first designed the IRA in 1974, they built in a number of restrictions meant to forbidding IRA owners from using these vehicles to benefit themselves prior to retirement. For this reason, the following transactions are prohibited within IRAs:
*They cannot buy property from their IRA.
*They cannot sell property to their IRA.
*Their relatives, defined as ascendants and descendants and their spouses, may not buy from or sell directly to their IRA.
*Their IRA cannot engage in any of the above transactions with any entities controlled by their ascendants, descendants, or any of their spouses.
*Their IRA cannot engage in transactions directly with their accountant, financial advisor, tax attorney or anyone else who advises them on their IRA, nor with any business entity they control.
*They cannot use their IRA, nor the assets within them, as security for a loan for use outside the IRA (this rule is commonly misunderstood.)

Sean interjects, “In plain English, this means they cannot use their IRA directly for their own profited, nor that of those related to them, and their advisors cannot manipulate them into using their IRA to benefit themselves. Their IRA exists for 1 purpose only: To provide economic security for them after they turn 59

Video Conferencing: A Productivity Tool To Boost Business Profits

Jim Brown asked:




For both small and large businesses, video conferencing is becoming one of the leading tools for communication. Video conferencing is a form of telecommunication that utilizes both audio and video for a virtual meeting. This basically involves either two people having a simple conversation referred to as P2P or point to point or it could be multi-point involving several different locations with many people linked together for the virtual meeting.

As technological advances continue to improve in the field of video conferencing, more and more businesses are trying to integrate this communication tool into their communication systems. But some may be hesitant to upgrade their system especially if they are not too familiar with how this type of system works and on whether or not it brings numerous benefits to their specific type of business. Your business’ particular situation though may benefit from the advantages that video conferencing has to offer.

Businesses that have multiple offices at various locations both locally or worldwide can benefit from video conferencing. In such a scenario, it is not uncommon to have regular regional meetings where office or department managers may have to travel to a particular location to take part in such. Apart from the travel expenses, pre-meeting preparations such as the paperwork to be distributed, emailed or post mailed can cost money as well and have to be considered too. Both time and money are saved if meetings are held via video conferencing with all the pertinent information needed to be taken up being displayed on the screen and all parties involved being able to interact even without being physically present in one room.

Video Conferencing can assist as well in your dealings with business partners, investors and those who you potentially think will be interested in doing business with you, most especially if they are located abroad. Important business matters can be easily discussed without having to schedule a meeting that requires some partners or associates to travel. You not only get full access to all of your business materials, you save money on travel and lodging expenses.

Many businesses are beginning to incorporate this technology and so you should consider installing a video conferencing system as well. Video conferencing equipment prices are starting to decrease and as more businesses are using such a technology to conduct regular virtual meetings, sooner or later you may have to upgrade your communication system as well.

Video Conferencing Makes Doing Business Easier

Ajeet Khurana asked:




Twenty years ago no one would have ever dreamt of something as sophisticated as video conferencing, but today this is a really convenient way to do business. More and more businesses are taking advantage of this high tech ability to do business even if they are half a world away from one another. When you have the need to speak with people from other offices, even if they are in different parts of the world, video conferencing makes it simple and straightforward.

Benefits of Video Conferencing

Many businesses have adopted video conferencing because they believe that it actually increases production. When people are able to meet face to face in their respective offices or locations and brainstorm or simply see eye to eye on topics it will energize everyone involved in any given project, which generally results in more productivity. This is something that more businesses are picking up and they like the increase in productivity so much that they are willing to continue the video conferences for that benefit alone.

Another aspect that a lot of corporations like about video conferencing is that it can actually save money. The reason for this is that people from different offices no longer need to be in the same geographical location to get things done together. Instead employees can meet and discuss things, even share physical progress on projects because they are linked via video. Video conferencing is much more economical than flying several employees to another location, paying for lodging and food. This is simply a more efficient means of communication.

One more benefit of video conferencing that cannot be overlooked is that it actually saves time. Sounds odd, but when you consider that employees will no longer need to spend work time traveling, there is time to be maximized. Employees will have a lot less travel time, which is usually time that cannot be utilized, and so more will be able to get done in less time. This goes hand in hand with saving money and an increase in productivity, since there will be more time to get things done in.

Video conferencing is relatively new to the world of business but it works. There are many different services that will provide video conferencing capabilities to businesses, whether they need the service once a month or once a day. Shop around a bit to see what is out there and how video conferencing can benefit your business. You’ll likely be impressed at how easy it is to set up these services and put them to use for your company. It doesn’t matter what industry you’re involved in, chances are that you can use video conferencing services to build a better business.
