Multipoint Collaboration

Avoid the time and cost to print and fax material for markup.

Use Multipoint Collaboration software and ordinary telephone lines to interactively change a master document.

Modern software such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel allow users to work on the same file at the same time, using comments, revisions, and versioning. This capability can be very effectively used. For example, let's say you have to get a contract out by a deadline and the contract requires input from legal, line of business contracts personnel, manufacturing, and finance staff. If everyone can be looking at the same document and revisions at the same time, then a final product can be derived quickly and efficiently.

 However, the participants do not always have access to the same LAN because they are located in some other remote facility or they are on the road in a hotel room or remote office.

 Install SrDA POP data modems with Microsoft Corporation Windows NT Server 4.0 software especially for Multipoint Collaboration support. One ISA bus slot can support 4 or 8 built in data modems. Real time online monitors provide important operational information on the status of each modem. Multipoint collaboration users can use Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 Workstations on desktops or laptops and can be connected to the LAN or be connected remotely using a data modem. Set up a Multipoint Collaboration Server in your department and connect it to your LAN and a few telephone lines so that you have this important capability when you need it.

 Simple, powerful and easy to use. Your multipoint collaboration users will enjoy being able to quickly get the job done whether they are at their LAN connected desktop or wherever they can find a telephone jack.
