Persony partners with Santa Barbara Web Hosting to roll out the first Web conferencing solution designed for Web hosting customers. Persony recently announced that Persony VShow, a cost-effective Web conferencing solution, is available through Santa Barbara Web Hosting (SBWH) as a subscription service starting at $14.95 a month for unlimited meetings. SBWH has been a leading Web hosting service provider in Santa Barbara since 1996. With the new offering, SBWH is expanding its service to the high-margin and high-growth Web collaboration business using their existing Web hosting services. Persony developed the first Web conferencing solution designed to work with standard Web servers. With Persony, ISPs can offer high-margin services using their existing Web hosting services. Service providers do not need to install and operate costly proprietary server software. Customers now can purchase Web conferencing from their Web hosting service providers at a very low monthly fee.
Persony VShow is built on a patent-pending technology that turns real-time meeting events into dynamic Web pages that can be displayed by any Web browser. VShow runs on a meeting host’s desktop PC. Meeting attendees simply use a Web browser to attend a meeting and do not need to download any software. VShow supports a rich set of Web meeting features, including
- Desktop sharing
- PowerPoint® presentation
- Virtual whiteboard
- Multi-party chatting
- Real-time polling
- Audio webcast
- Record and playback
- Attendee registration and reporting
“Our mission is to make Web conferencing available to millions of small businesses,” says Eric Chen, CEO of Persony. “Web hosting service providers have been providing reliable, cost-effective, and high-quality services to small businesses for many years. Many of them have added Voice over IP, email marketing, e-commerce, and content management services. We believe Web conferencing is the next service they will offer in the near future.”
ISPs can offer Persony VShow as a stand-alone service or as part of a Web hosting package. Persony works on a revenue sharing model and does not require an upfront fee. Private branding of Persony VShow is also available.
Persony's mission is to bring enterprise level applications, such as web conferencing and online collaboration, to the masses by leveraging the ubiquity of Web servers and hosting service providers. Persony's patent-pending "smart-client" technology puts the intelligence of an enterprise application on the client side and uses standard Web servers to connect remote users. Persony's web conferencing solution can be deployed anywhere there is an Internet connection. The smart-client approach is a disruptive technology that allows individuals and small businesses to afford applications that were once only available to larger corporations.
