iVocalize is a very cost-effective, simple-to-use, server-based Web conferencing solution sporting great VoIP, recording abilities, co-browsing and PowerPoint presentation support.
iVocalize is the baby of Bryan Vergato, a software engineer and streaming audio specialist with a long experience in the field and a glorious contribution to the early days of Real Audio.
iVocalize is a Web conferencing solution that, once installed, does not require your attendees to install any specific software on their PCs.
Requiring simply Internet Explorer to be pre-installed on your computer, iVocalize seamlessly takes you into a Web-based private room in which you can meet and work with up to several thousand people at once.
Audio quality is excellent even across most dial-up connections, and among the best I have been able to experience. Even with a 33.6 Kbps I have been able to engage in an acceptable quality audio conversation and I have heard people through iVocalize which were in worst conditions than mine.
The co-browsing facility is simple and easy to use, and the elected moderator can cruise to any number of Web pages while having all participants automatically follow.
iVocalize distinguishes itself from a group of very similar tools by:
a) integrating session recording in a standard multimedia format (Windows Media Audio), including audio, text chat and Web pages shown
b) deploying a great number of keyboard shortcuts to support handicapped users. While this proves to be indispensable for them, it gives the standard power-user a great deal of extra speed and ease in accessing a multitude of functions.
c) complementing the simple co-browsing facility with an integral FTP uploading and presentation-conversion tool which facilitates the fastidious task of uploading a PowerPoint presentation converted into HTML to your preferred Web server. The iVocalize PowerPoint Export Wizard takes a PowerPoint presentation, converts it to individual slides in one of four different formats, uploads the slides to your FTP server, and builds a list of URLs for replaying the web-presentation to a live audience using iVocalize Synchronized Browsing.
