G-Meeting

Applications and Features

Applications

G-Meeting is designed for online meetings and training for groups no larger than 15 people. While G-Meeting includes useful work collaboration tools, such as file sharing and a copy-and-paste whiteboard, it is not intended as an advanced work collaboration tool. There are other systems on the market designed specifically for that purpose.

G-Meeting was also not designd to be a one-size-fits-all technology and therefore does not directly compete with other web conferencing systems on the market. Instead, it was created to meet the specific needs of organizations that require multi-language communication. This is a weakness of most other conferencing systems and a strength of G-Meeting.

We developed not only the technology to enable real-time simultaneous translation of online events, but also created a service that provides interpreters who have been trained to use our system. Our primary target audience is therefore organizations that need to conduct business in more than one language, such as governments, exporters and international groups.

Features

G-Meeting favors reliability over features. This means that we have deliberately reduced the number of advanced features to maximize performance and reliability. Our clients have told us they would rather have a few essential features that perform well than many features that can make the system unstable and complicated.

G-Meeting is a basic but high-performing system designed to work well at high speeds on up-to-date computers.

Here are the core features of G-Meeting.

  • Video and echo-free audio streaming for all participants
  • Simultaneous translation channel
  • Live interpreter service (Interpreter fees are extra)
  • Alternate language interface buttons
  • Text chat
  • Special access to the presenter for online training
  • Voting system
  • File uploading so participants can share files from their computer with the rest of the group
  • Copy-and-paste personal notepad
  • Copy-and-paste shared whiteboard
  • PowerPoint and graphic conversion to Flash slides
  • Add and delete user function for the moderator
