Telstra to offer Microsoft Live Meeting service

Your IT - Home IT

Telstra has selected Microsoft Live Meeting to underpin its web conferencing service, making it the first Australian-operated telecommunications carrier to provide Microsoft Live Meeting as a service.

Microsoft Live Meeting was launched globally in July and MCI was one of the first service providers to resell it, however it became available from MCI in Asia Pacific only last month, hence the carefully worded press release claim that the deal made Telstra "the first Australian-operated telecommunications carrier to provide Microsoft Live Meeting as a service".

The service is based on Office Live Meeting 2005 and enables users to share presentations and other documents with customers, staff and suppliers through the use of a phone, PC and an Internet broadband connection. The service also offers text chat, online polling, whiteboards and recording and playback of presentations, enabling groups of people to collaborate in real-time from their desktop.

The second phase of development, scheduled for release in March 2006, will integrate Telstra's existing audio conferencing services are integrated with Microsoft's Live Meeting.

The service is designed for organisations both large and small, especially companies that have more than one office. Telstra will also use the web conferencing service internally for staff including its national sales force and its IT services.
