Polycom^® RealPresence^™ Social

Polycom® RealPresence™ Social solutions extend HD video collaboration to "business social" networks—giving you new ways to connect and collaborate.

The "social" explosion is leaping the fence from personal to professional, and joining with video collaboration is a natural fit. The power of face-to-face video is well-established: People learn twice as much and retain 38% more, because more than half of interactive communication is visual.

Video-enabled social platforms give you a new and powerful way to connect face-to-face with people in your business and social circles. With real-time video you have richer conversations, learn more, persuade more effectively, make better decisions faster, and bring more firepower to any team's productivity. Polycom RealPresence Social solutions allow you to:

• Make point-to-point and multi-point group calls in real-time through your Web browser.
• Record meetings or video messages.
• Archive videos for others to retrieve and view asynchronously.

Polycom and its global ecosystem are committed to open, standards-based interoperability so that you can choose from hundreds of intersecting business and communications applications—such as business social platforms—with assurance that they'll work together with Polycom.

We're working with leading companies to embed Polycom telepresence and video software in their social business networking solutions. First out of the blocks is a strategic partnership between Polycom and Jive. Jive business customers will be able to conduct live video chats, initiate group video calls, and record video meetings or messages for archiving, training, and ongoing collaboration. A technology demonstration of the Polycom and Jive Software HD video collaboration solution will be showcased at JiveWorld11 in Las Vegas, Oct 4-6.
