● Integration with video conferencing tools like Skype, Polycom and Cisco: For meeting rooms that are already enabled with video conferencing codecs such as those from Cisco, Polycom and Logitech, or for users of Skype for Business, beginning in early Q3 2017, Prysm Go is expected to enable meeting participants to accept or reject incoming calls, control meeting room volume, share content with other participants, and dial another video codec-enabled room, all from the Prysm display

“The Indian IT services industry currently is going through a transformative phase and is looking at achieving cost efficiencies and global collaboration effectively. The sector also has one of the largest global mobile workforce - accordingly to a latest report by KPMG, the IT & pharma sector in the country has accounted for around 60% of business travel spend in 2015-16. Enterprises are focused on providing enhanced collaboration experience to its mobile workforce, while at the same time protecting their investments in technology. Prysm Go is a great solution for addressing these new needs of enterprises.” GB Kumar, Vice President - APAC, Prysm Inc.

“Technology can ironically be a barrier to collaboration, so enterprises should look for solutions that are inviting instead of intimidating to both next-gen and traditional users,” said Ira M. Weinstein, senior analyst and partner, Wainhouse Research. “With the new Prysm Go offering, Prysm has made it quick and easy for users to jump in and start working. No need to log in to ideate or even join a meeting. And the option to use existing hardware or buy a complete package makes the solution even more enterprise-friendly.”

Built on a hardware-agnostic platform, Prysm Go is the only solution available today that provides instant meeting-start capabilities while also offering an upgradable path to the full Prysm digital workplace platform without additional infrastructure requirements. Companies now have the flexibility to grow with the complete Prysm solution at a user-personalized scale, which supports individual participant content repositories and project persistence. Once the solution is deployed, enterprises can purchase individual licenses with no extra hardware or added implementation required.

“Prysm Go empowers enterprises to engage today’s digitally proficient employees in a secure way while enabling the solution to integrate with existing meeting room infrastructure,” said Paige O’Neill, CMO, Prysm, “There are thousands and thousands of conference rooms that go unused because of unproductive and underutilized technology. With Prysm Go, we are enabling enterprises to update these spaces and maximize their current hardware investments so their employees can better engage and make better business decisions with better information – and more quickly.”
