According to a recent “Work from Anywhere” survey conducted by
Avaya, 57 percent of businesses are now reporting some struggle
with remote communication and fatigue.1 The explosive growth of
video conferencing and the proliferation of platforms has created
the need for easier to use, all-in-one solutions that improve
collaboration and reduce the fatigue of too many apps. Customers
and employees need the right tools to elevate their
work-from-anywhere experience, as well as a fundamental shift in
thinking when it comes to using those tools. This requires moving
away from the idea of ‘just’ video meetings to 24/7 collaborative,
cloud-based work spaces. Avaya Spaces enables organizations to
excel at the usual day-to-day tasks, but also the unplanned and
new-priority work that arrives nearly every moment of every
day.
“Today’s business environment has reshaped how organizations,
customers and individuals work and collaborate no matter where
teams are located, but it is not enough to just remote-enable
people, we need to create the new future of work,” said Anthony
Bartolo, EVP and Chief Product Officer, Avaya. “With the new
capabilities of Avaya Spaces, we continue to evolve with our
customers ensuring our portfolio responds to environmental shifts
and offers real solutions to real problems across any industry.
Avaya is uniquely positioned to deliver innovation for workstream
collaboration that achieves meaningful and significant business
outcomes for organizations of all sizes.”
Avaya Spaces provides a cloud meeting and team collaboration
solution that enables people and organizations to connect and
collaborate remotely – and goes beyond integrating chat, voice,
video, online meetings and content sharing. That is why Avaya
Spaces has seen rapid adoption by educational institutions,
healthcare, government agencies, and businesses of all sizes around
the globe.
Enhancements to Avaya Spaces include:
- 61-participant “concert” style HD video layout – where the
primary speaker is large in the center; perfect for all-hands or
town hall meetings.
- Enhanced video layouts with flexibility to accommodate
different meeting types such as panel discussions, training,
project planning and interviews.
- Modernized collaboration control to accommodate various use
cases; for example, a teacher can enable students to post completed
assignments or chat outside of class time, or turn-off capabilities
eliminating distractions.
- Intelligent moderation including smart mute, host control of
participant cameras and microphones, and “raise hand” features for
effective management of sessions to minimize disruptions while
maintaining whatever level of interactivity the meeting host
desires.
Avaya recently integrated powerful cloud AI solutions from
NVIDIA to help increase the impact and value of visual, audible and
collaborative experiences through the Avaya Spaces™ platform. The
new integration helps customers benefit from background noise
removal, virtual green screen backgrounds, rich presenter features
enabling presenters to be overlaid on top of presentation content,
as well as live transcriptions that can recognize and differentiate
voices.
Avaya Spaces is available in nearly 100 countries and is offered
with Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription, as well as on a standalone
basis. For a free 60-day Avaya Spaces trial for your entire
organization, please visit this page.
