Integrated Solution Comprises Mitel UC Portfolio and Vidyo Platform on VMware Virtual Machines and Delivers Unprecedented Value to SMBs
Hackensack, NJ – June 20, 2012 — Vidyo, Inc., the first company to deliver personal telepresence, today announced a partnership with Mitel, a global provider of business communications and collaboration software and services. The companies will deliver a comprehensive integration of Vidyo’s leading HD, multipoint video communications solution for desktop, mobile, room communications with Mitel’s industry leading Unified Communications and Collaboration (UCC) offering. The integrated solution will be demonstrated at Mitel’s Business Partner Conference (registration link removed), from June 19 – 21, in San Diego, at Mitel’s Booth # 412 and Vidyo’s Booth # 232.
“According to research conducted by VMware and Canalys, SMB adoption of virtualized solutions is expected to increase two-fold by 2014, positioning Mitel and Vidyo well in the market as we will deliver rich integrated applications on a common virtualization framework,” said Ashish Gupta, Vidyo’s CMO and SVP Corporate Development. “The virtualized Mitel-Vidyo offering will give SMBs unprecedented choice, delivering unmatched quality, reach and savings to customers looking to deploy on-demand unified communications and visual collaboration solutions on their desktops, mobile devices and conference rooms at a fraction of the cost of legacy video conferencing solutions.”
The SMB segment has been underserved by traditional video conferencing solutions that require proprietary hardware and are restricted by the MCU-based architecture. These legacy solutions are typically too costly for SMB budgets and are challenging to deploy and maintain. Vidyo’s industry-leading architecture has disrupted the market to deliver a high quality, highly scalable solution that provides seamless interoperability with legacy solutions. The integrated solution from Mitel and Vidyo will provide SMB customers with a UC-aware personal telepresence solution that is both economically and technologically well-suited for this market’s needs.
“Delivering high-definition video conferencing that can provide an integrated collaboration experience with Mitel’s UC solution is a priority for our partners and customers looking to increase collaboration and efficiency,” said Stephen Beamish, Mitel Vice President of Marketing and Business Development. “Vidyo delivers a virtualized video solution that meshes perfectly with our vision of an integrated UC platform and, when combined with Mitel UC, will provide our customers with the freedom to select high quality video applications without traditional limitations.”
