Great America Networks Announces Launch of New Conferencing Division
Launch brings BTI Group one step closer to being one-stop solution for its clients
CHICAGO (PRWEB) September 7, 2005 -- Great America Networks, Inc., the sister company of BTI Communications Group, Ltd., announces the launch of its newest conferencing and collaboration division, Great America Networks Conferencing, LLC. Already operational, the new division provides audio and video conferencing solutions as well as Web-based collaboration applications at a significantly competitive rate.
"Great America Networks Conferencing is the most recent step towards reaching the goal of being a one-stop shop for all of our clients telecommunications needs," according to Reno Provine, president for Great America Networks Conferencing, LLC, and chief operations officer for BTI Communications Group, Ltd. While BTI and Great America Networks already allowed us to handle a significant portion of our clients telecommunications needs, the ability to service their audio, video, and web collaboration needs seemed like the logical next step."
The launch of GANC provides several synergistic opportunities for BTIs new and existing clients, according to Provine. The fact that a client can receive a phone system with all of the associated hardware and software, their network services (such as Local, Long Distance and Internet Access), and their Audio, Video and Web Conferencing is unique in the industry. In addition to this, they are able to receive significant discount volumes across the board for all of the services that they may choose to utilize within the BTI family.
Special consideration should be paid to the fact that a customer can receive all of the above services on one single invoice, and that their rates can all be customized to take advantage of price blending across services. The executive team will consider GANC a successful launch by measuring the amount of services that are utilized by our existing customer base. To us, this will be the ultimate indicator that the GANC offering accomplishes it's true goal, which is to be the one-stop shop for all of our clients telecommunications needs.
GANCs current product lineup includes automated and operator-assisted audio conferencing options, dial out, video conferencing, Web collaboration, as well as a number of added features, such as participant polling, transcription, and call recording of audio conferences to enhance the conferencing experience.
QuickConnect® and QuickPresenter® have to be at the top of the list for greatest benefit to users, says Provine. QuickConnect® is a simple-to-use, but highly efficient audio conferencing tool that allows individuals to host conference calls on the fly for instantaneous collaboration among employees with no need for creating reservations or for learning complex codes and systems. QuickPresenter® goes hand in hand with QuickConnect® by allowing users to instantaneously work on the same document together, collaborate and view the document and make edits where appropriate.
Our clients can rest assured that the same quality and reliability for which the BTI name has always been known is inherent throughout each of the three organizations -- BTI Communications Group, Ltd., Great America Networks, and Great America Networks Conferencing, LLC -- and the attention to detail and customer service that has always separated BTI from its competitors for the past 20 years will only improve with the addition of our latest business entity," says Provine.
