FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
COROWARE SIGNS AGREEMENT WITH VIDYO TO OFFER MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR VIDEO CONFERENCING SERVICE
Offers Free One-Month Trial of VidyoConferencing ™
Redmond, WA – May 21, 2009 - Coroware Technologies, a subsidiary of CoroWare,
Inc. (OTCBB:COWI) announced today that they have signed an agreement with Vidyo, and
can now offer customers affordable subscription packages for video conferencing
services powered by Vidyo’s award winning products and technology.
CoroWare can now offer customers a variety of monthly subscription packages for
VidyoConferencing™. This high-definition (HD), multi-point video conferencing service
can be delivered to enterprise and small business customers over broadband and 3G
wireless Internet connections.
“Small and medium sized businesses are showing greater interest in monthly telepresence
subscription plans since they eliminate the need to purchase and operate their own
communication infrastructure,” said Marty Hollander, senior vice president of marketing
at Vidyo. “By offering an affordable telepresence service, these customers can benefit
from improved collaboration while reducing the impact of travel.”
Monthly service plans can scale from individual desktop video conferencing to complete
telepresence rooms. Customers can select from a range of monthly plans instead of
purchasing and maintaining their own telepresence system and network infrastructure.
"We believe Vidyo’s technology is simply revolutionary in that it makes video
conferencing accessible to anyone with a broadband Internet connection,” said Chuck
House, Chairman of CoroWare. "By deploying a managed service based on Vidyo’s platform,
CoroWare will be able to deliver a very affordable telepresence service on existing LAN,
broadband Internet, or 3G mobile networks."
Recent headlines have indicated there are times when travel is not advisable because of
health risks or budgetary concerns. Responding to this challenge, CoroWare, in cooperation
with Vidyo, is offering one free month of its Personal Telepresence Service to any
business or organization that needs to reduce business travel.
“Personal telepresence is an effective business continuity solution for organizations that
need to quickly respond to travel restrictions or other commercial interruptions” said Lloyd
Spencer, CEO of CoroWare. “Working cooperatively with Vidyo, we can offer one month
telepresence service at no charge for businesses taking active steps to address travel
concerns such as budget and safety.”
