Audio Conferencing Solutions

Audio-Only Conferencing Solutions

LEVERAGE’s applications are built to simplify the administration and enhance the user experience with Cisco Collaboration and Unified Communications applications.

While our very first development effort was an audio conferencing application which augmented Cisco’s Collaboration platform and led to our introduction of Quium, a shortcut of the Latin colloquium. The success of our conferencing tools led to additional applications, and today we offer a suite of software tools: Quium Collaboration Utilities and Quium Collaboration Management. Built to provide enhanced functionality for Cisco Unified Communications, these tools work for any size deployment.

Quium Conference Bridge

Conferencing on a Cisco UC system is often wholly inadequate, or beyond most customer’s budgets. The built-in conferencing function consumes often limited CUCM server resources, or expensive router DSP resources. Live monitoring and management of the conference is not possible. The only other options are to go to a hosted conferencing system and pay per-minute per-caller and potentially spend large sums of money and be saddled with a conferencing tool that you don’t really control and can’t be customized to your business, or purchase an on premise system and be guaranteed to spend large sums of money. QCU provides an on premise conference bridge that can be customized with recordings to provide a professional impression without per-minute costs.

The conference bridge provides a feature rich conference environment. Users can be provided individual accounts, and will be able to create, delete, and monitor their own conferences. Conference owners can monitor who is on their conference, mute and unmute participants, remove participants from the conference, and even lock the conference to prevent accidental intrusion on the conference via the web interface. The ability to have multiple conferences with different IDs and PINs allows users to have individual conferences for different customers or purposes, allowing great flexibility to the user. Conference histories are kept, and are visible to users, so they can review who joined a conference on a specific date/time. Conferences can extend to up to 300 callers in any combination of conference sizes.

Quium Conference Bridge Recording

Recording of the built-in conference on CUCM is not a feature without clever workarounds and third party hardware/software. Cloud based services may record but will probably levy fees, and you have to trust that the recording that contain corporate confidential information are adequately protected. Quium provides an on premise system so that you can ensure your private conferences are not potentially exposed to data breaches.

Conference recording can be added to the conference bridge functionality. This allows conferences to be scheduled to be automatically recorded, or recording can be started from the web interface any time during the call. Conference recording can allow users to document discussions for later use, or transcription. Hosts or administrators can instantly download or delete conference recordings as desired.
