(21-Mar-2012) Blue Jeans Network offers the choice of buying concurrent connections or blocks of minutes for its videoconferencing service
A provider of hosted videoconferencing services has added the ability to buy connectivity by concurrent connections as well as by blocks of minutes.
Blue Jeans Network said Wednesday that it now offers customers can now buy a number of virtual ports per month, which it says is less expensive than buying a multipoint control unit (or MCU bridge) for an on-premise system.
“It’s an opportunity for customers to buy a videoconferencing system that gives them tremendous multipoint capabilities as an alternative to plunking down hundreds of thousands of dollars in hardware,” said Stu Aaron, the company’s chief commercial officer.
