Having a solution like Bradon Technologies’ SAViiDesk can be a real lifesaver in a bad weather, such as hurricanes.

Once a Category 3 hurricane, Earl is moving up the East Coast of the United States. Not only has it produced pounding surf, heavy winds and torrential rains, it has led to travel delays. That on top of already crowded airports and highways on a busy holiday weekend such as Labor Day.

An article posted on the Davinci virtual blog said if there is flooding, people who telecommute from virtual offices may need to move to higher ground.

“But that’s the beauty of a virtual office. It’s allows you to remain productive even in the midst of a hurricane,” writes Jennifer LeClaire.

Even if power outages force you out of your home office, virtual office technologies go with you. Calls can be routed to anywhere you are on dry ground. You can also conduct web conferencing from anywhere.

Web meeting provider Bradon Technologies has demonstrated the ability to efficiently transport voice data via the Internet to improve voice quality and call reliability.

Bradon's flagship product, SAViiDesk provides a new method of real-time Software-as-a-Service collaboration via the Internet that lets companies hold Web meetings and conferences with an unlimited number of users located throughout the world using their computers, BlackBerrys or Windows Mobile smartphones. SAViiDesk relies on VoIP, enabling participants to be free of the constraints of a traditional telephone and actively participate in Web meetings. The solution's unique ability to manage voice-based collaboration via the Internet allows for higher quality and more flexible Web meetings and conferencing. This includes instantaneous archiving of the conference call so participants can later revisit the entire call.

A very good solution if Hurricane Earl is interrupting your workday. Especially since hurricane season won’t be over for a few months. And ice storms strike after that!
