Web Conference Presentations
Some web
conferencing products allow for the moderator to use the internet to display
a presentation on the users screen. Depending on the service provider,
this might or might not be included with the cost of an audio conference
call. This form of web conference "lite" is best used when the
moderator will be making a presentation and the document is in its final
form. Because the ability to make changes to the presentation is
limited, this product should not be used when the moderator wants an
interactive experience.
Collaboration
Web based conferencing is a revolutionary
product that allows multiple participants to work on the same document at a
time. By allowing people to work together, collaboration services
eliminate the need to send a document back and forth between individuals
when they make changes. By bringing everybody together on the same
page, it allows users to reach a consensus faster and be more creative.
Features include document sharing and presentations, ability to mark up
documents, whiteboards, chat and even desktop sharing. By allowing
interactivity, collaboration allows users to feel like they are in the same
room, despite the physical separation. Because it often makes sense to
use this product with as few as two people (who would then be communicating
via the telephone), the audio portion is priced separately and is not
included in the cost of the product.
