PGi and Hive Streaming Join Forces to Bring Enterprise Video to TalkPoint and iMeetLive Webcasting CustomersIntegration Optimizes the Utilization of Existing Bandwidth on Enterprise Networks for Enhanced Video Streaming Experience ATLANTA, Nov. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today PGi, the world's largest dedicated provider of collaboration solutions, and subsidiary TalkPoint®, the world's leading enterprise webcast provider, announced their reseller agreement with Hive Streaming, a leader in enterprise video distribution solutions, to deliver on a high-quality, analytics-supported webcast streaming experience for customers. As a leading webcast video solution, PGi's iMeetLive® and TalkPoint customers needed better ways to deliver live video to large internal audiences without crushing networks and causing bandwidth issues. By bundling and integrating Hive Streaming with iMeetLive and TalkPoint solutions, PGi's webcast customers can now easily deploy a higher quality webcast streaming experience, coupled with real-time performance analysis solutions, delivered via HTML5, without crippling a company's network during large video events. "Despite video's clear value to the enterprise, it is virtually meaningless without the right distribution infrastructure," said Wainhouse research senior analyst Steve Vonder Haar. "For video to deliver on its business promise, organizations must have robust internal corporate networks capable of handling the traffic generated by its data-intensive format." Adding Value Where It Matters
For customers, reporting on Hive-enabled events will be integrated directly into the TalkPoint and iMeetLive administrative portals, making the add-on service an easy transition. On December 5, the TalkPoint, PGi and Hive teams will be hosting a webinar with Wainhouse Analyst, Steve Vonder Haar, discussing the role of networking in corporate video.
