Enterprise-grade video conferencing software

The term video conferencing is also referred to in a number of ways, including video chat, web conferencing, virtual office, online video meeting, or video calling. All these terms refer to the same underlying technology that allows people to communicate in a face-to-face matter virtually. To do so, users just need an internet connection and video conferencing software like Kumospace.

When picking a video communication tool, it's important to get an enterprise-grade solution that offers security and privacy. Many video conferencing tools are available from both a web browser and native apps. In the case of Kumospace, our video chat product is available for all major web browsers as well as available on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS operating systems.

The early 1990s. Students at Cambridge University in the Computer Science Department invested in the first web camera in 1991. This primitive but highly innovative device could only provide 129×129 pixel grayscale pictures at one frame per second. 

This invention which is not standard on most new computers, paved the way for online video conferencing. In the early 1990s, a student at Cornell University wrote a program called CU-SeeMe. These became the first video conferencing platform and was released on macOS in 1992. Two years later, in 1994, the software program became available on Windows.

Video conferencing is a meeting with two or more participants who are participating from different locations. They use a computer connection, audio, and video to connect. Video conferencing can be used for team meetings, webinars, product demos, job interviews, and more.

To add Kumospace video conferencing to your Google Calendar, first, install the Kumospace extension from the Google Chrome Web Store. Once installed, open your Google Calendar and create a new event. In the event details, click on "Add Kumospace Meeting". The link to your Kumospace meeting will be automatically generated and inserted into the event description. Now, you can invite attendees who will receive the link to join the meeting.

Video conferencing, like that offered by Kumospace, enhances communication by facilitating face-to-face interaction, irrespective of geographical boundaries. It fosters collaboration, increases productivity, and saves time and travel costs. It's particularly beneficial for remote or hybrid teams, enabling real-time discussion and decision-making. Additionally, visual cues enhance understanding and engagement, leading to more effective meetings.
