Goodness knows there is plenty of competition in most sectors of IT, but the Web conference and webinar-provisioning businesses are heating up in particular fashion right now.
With such well-known names as Cisco Systems’ Webex, Skype, Microsoft LiveMeeting, Citrix’ GoToMeeting, Adobe’s Acrobat Connect, IBM LotusLive and dozens of others vying for customers, it is easy for smaller providers to get lost in the shuffle.
With all that as background, the AnyMeeting cloud service has announced a faster onboard process for first-time users to get a video meeting started. Using its new AnyMeeting Now feature, even people without an AnyMeeting account can start a meeting on demand (free of charge, but ad-supported) at any time of day.
Unlike most other Web conferencing services, there is no software for users or their attendees to download, and no long-term sign up or credit card information required.
If you would rather not deal with advertising, you can buy a full-featured subscription for up to 25 attendees for $17.99 (£11.44) per month. Or, you can buy the no-ads version for up to 200 attendees for $69.99 (£44.52) per month.
AnyMeeting told eWEEK that it had recently achieved a milestone in reaching over 120,000 registered users and has grown by nearly 600 percent during the last year. The company did this by establishing a presence in the SMB market, which is expected to account for 50 to 70 percent of the global video conferencing market in the next three to four years, according to analytics firm Frost & Sullivan.
