Nefsis Cloud-Based Video Conferencing Adds Multi-Layer Whiteboarding

Cloud-based video conferencing and online meeting provider Nefsis has added multilayer whiteboard capabilities to its set of online collaboration tools . The new capabilities allow multiple participants in a video conferencing to add text, graphics and annotations to a shared whiteboard in real time. Online collaboration tools, which can include document, desktop and even lives streaming media sharing, represent a significant enhancement of basic video conferencing services. A number of factors, however, make such integration technically difficult. It's particularly challenging, for example, when multiple types of endpoints, and particularly hardware endpoints, are involved. The Nefsis service uses Windows-based client software.
