The Acano solution integrates with existing infrastructure, including Cisco voice, video, and Microsoft Lync – No "rip and replace", preserving and enhancing the value of customer’s investments. The solution delivers voice, video, web, data and desktop access.
What Analysts are Saying
“[With] the emerging Acano solution… I think we might be headed in the direction where remote collaboration sessions will be ‘richer’ and more productive than in-person meetings.”“Think of this solution as a Lync gateway (virtual server) with high “port density,” low cost, multiple apps, and a flexible business model.”
“Acano seems to be solving several pain points that have hindered video conferencing in the past… The timing is right as user needs shift drastically.”
