BrightCom, Inc., the performance leader in integrated conferencing, announces that it has been selected as the web conferencing vendor for Kimco Staffing Services.

Orange County, CA (PRWEB) February 2, 2006 -- BrightCom, Inc., the performance leader in integrated conferencing, announces that it has been selected as the web conferencing vendor for Kimco Staffing Services. As a leading staffing firm in California for 20 years, Kimco has several offices from San Francisco to San Diego that each rely on effective communication and training between branches. Each branch provides several training courses for its employees in order to ensure that they are trained on the latest staffing procedures. Courses were typically held several times per month for small groups of employees. With employees in several branches within California, it became difficult to determine who had taken which training course. In order to train employees more effectively, Kimco started researching solutions for a cost-effective means of providing web conferenecing. Kimco selected the Visual Collaboration System by BrightCom after a search that included several hosted and non-hosted web conferencing solutions.

As a fully integrated "plug and play" network appliance, The Visual Collaboration System is optimized for hosting rich, interactive, live collaborative meetings via a web browser. Simply plug the unit into your network and you can be hosting a live web conference in just a few minutes. As an integrated hardware and software solution, the Visual Collaboration System eliminates the deployment time, challenges and costs of server based systems and offers richer features and lower costs than hosted solutions. Also suited to Kimco's needs, the Visual Collaboration System provides a full audit feature that reports on when attendees join and leave meetings. "By including audit features such as login and logout, we were able to determine to what degrees attendees participated in meetings." said Kaivan Jesung Director of Product Development.

By selecting the Visual Collaboration System as their web conferencing solution, Kimco Staffing Services eliminated the need for employee travel to attend meetings, all at a fraction of the cost of traditional hosted conferencing solutions. "By using the Visual Collaboration System, we have made our trainers and employees more efficient which resulted in cost savings for travel expenditures." said Tony Bruno, Manager of Information Technology for Kimco. Kimco is now in the process of evaluating additional conferencing products by BrightCom to satisfy their audio and video conferencing requirements.
