Merge Communications Video Conferencing Value Proposition:
"Merge Communications video communications products and services offer customers the opportunity to improve profitability while changing the balance between work and private time for the employee. With High Definition (HD) videoconferencing the need for people to physically get together for effective communications is becoming a thing of the past. The audio and visual realism of HD means that groups of people in a number of distant locations can effectively communicate and regularly review situations as if they were in the same room. The financial, personal and environmental costs of modern long distance travel can be dramatically reduced, productivity improved and decision making can become more timely and effective. Merge Communications is totally committed to finding new and unique ways to exploit the potential of HD video conferencing for the benefit of the customer, the employee and the environment"
