Conference Controls provide the Host complete control over all aspects of the web conference. Much like traditional conference rooms and teleconferencing, web conferencing supports a hierarchy: hosts, presenters and participants. Participants need only sit back and relax. Presenters have full use of the Share menu (i.e., they can share presentations and documents, etc.), but they cannot change attributes of the conference room (i.e., enable/disable/change audio, video), promote, demote and expel users. Only the host, or hosts, have these rights. It's easy for the host, just right click on any user (or object), and get a short list of settings.
- Manage audio and video
- Open or close entry (to scheduled conferences)
PowerPoint presentation
To share a PowerPoint presentation, open the presentation on your desktop, go to the App Sharing Menu and select the presentation. You can do this at anytime; there is no need to pre-stage or previously up-load your presentations. When you Share a PowerPoint presentation, it is compressed at the Presenter's PC, then dynamically sent to the server, and then all participants. The presentation is cached at the participant, so the presenter can change slides instantly. When going back and forth often, there is also a bandwidth conservation benefit, as only the page change commands go over the Internet.
Share a Document
To share a document, open the document, go to the App Sharing menu and select the document. You can share Microsoft Word, Excel and virtually any usable document on your PC. Document sharing works just like PowerPoint sharing, once you share the document, it is dynamically sent to the server and then all participants. The presenter can flip through pages instantly, and even pages with rich text, graphics and images display nice and clean.

- Plus virtually any usable document
- Graphics, text and images
- Presenter can change pages instantly
- You can share a document anytime

Application Sharing
Share any application by going to the App Sharing menu and selecting the Application. You will be prompted to select from a list of applications already running on your PC, simply click on the one you want to share. To stop sharing, simply go back to the App sharing menu and uncheck the application.
*Note the lasso around the application being shared;
and the Stop Sharing button on the upper-right.

- The presenter and all participants view the application being shared (not just two parties)

Web Page Viewing
Open the web page you want seen, Select App Sharing and choose the browser window you want to share. Everyone will see the same browser display as you do. You can use this feature to show web sites, visit web pages and a wide variety of co-browsing applications. It sure beats trying to say a long complicated URL over the phone, or trying to explain where to click to go next!

- Fast, real-time response! The desktop compression and real-time engine has been used in this application for years. It's just like looking over somebody's shoulder
- Multiparty. You and all your participants see the desktop being shared

Multi-party Video

The host can manage all aspects of the video session, including size, quality (lo, med, hi) and frame rate (1-30 fps), plus the ability to change the settings at any end-point in real-time! Nowhere are the strengths of our system’s real-time technology more visually stunning than in a multiparty video conference while sharing multiple documents and presentations.
