\n\u201cEcosystem\u201d<\/strong> and \u201cCloud\u201d<\/strong> were the key words in the speeches by Claudio<\/strong> Mignone, Country Manager of Polycom Italy<\/strong>, and Andrea Recupero, Polycom SE Voice South EMEA & BeNeLux.<\/strong> The meeting was organized by Polycom<\/strong><\/a> to present the latest technological developments in the field of collaboration and videoconferencing.
\nLet\u2019s start from Cloud:<\/strong> Polycom<\/strong><\/a> has announced a new cloud-based strategy, with Polycom Cloud Services<\/strong> and Polycom Device Management Services (PDMS)<\/strong> solutions, in order to offer new features to companies for the management and evaluation of telephone devices. The new Cloud services are addressed on one side to Enterprise customers (PDMS-E<\/strong>) and on the other to service providers (PDMS-SP<\/strong>). PDMS for Enterprise enables IT professionals to easily manage all Polycom<\/strong><\/a> audio devices, including desk phones and conference rooms, from a single cloud portal. For service providers, however, who have different needs from those of corporate customers, Polycom<\/strong><\/a> offers a version of PDMS designed to integrate the management and analysis of Polycom<\/strong><\/a> audio devices directly into the customer portal. Service providers can therefore shorten uptime by anticipating customers\u2019 critical issues, collecting sensitive analytical data and customizing devices. Polycom<\/strong><\/a>, in the third quarter of 2018, will also release an API<\/strong> capable of transforming PDMS into a platform even more focused on the future, especially in anticipation of the development of endpoints such as Polycom Trio<\/strong><\/a>, destined to become increasingly \u201csmart\u201d.
\n
\nThe second key word of the day is \u201cEcosystem\u201d<\/strong>: Polycom<\/strong><\/a> reiterates, above all in the words of Claudio Mignone,<\/strong> its intent to integrate more and more technology, which today must cohabit in a large group of devices of different brands. The Polycom<\/strong><\/a> proposal for 2018 therefore consists of updates aimed at creating ever larger ecosystems of collaboration, able to connect in a simple way the single \u201ctechnological islands\u201d in a BYOD logic. The new release 5.7.1<\/strong> of Polycom UC Software<\/a>,<\/strong> as well as the new versions of Trio<\/strong><\/a> and Pano<\/a>,<\/strong> implement and improve the audio conference experience, enlarging it to video and sharing documents.
\n
\nTrio<\/strong><\/a> offers two models: Trio 8500<\/strong> and Trio 8800,<\/strong> with the enhanced partnership with Zoom<\/strong><\/a> to support Zoom rooms. The new Polycom Zoom Rooms solution<\/strong> is available in three versions, for all business needs, from huddle rooms to large meeting rooms. Trio<\/a>,<\/strong> with native UI Zoom controller, is the heart of the system. For the Huddle Room, the solution includes the Trio 8500<\/strong>, the new Eagle Eye Mini<\/a> camera<\/strong> and Dell OptiPlex<\/strong><\/a>.
\nFor the mid-sized Conference Rooms, there is the Trio 8500 Plus Zoom Room proposal<\/strong>, with an EagleEye IV MPTZ<\/strong><\/a> (for HD video) and Dell OptiPlex<\/strong><\/a> cameras. For large conference rooms, the \u201cteam\u201d consists of the Trio 8800<\/strong> along with the EagleEye IV MPTZ HD<\/strong><\/a> and Dell OptiPlex<\/a> cameras.<\/strong> The Trio 8800<\/strong> model has speakers designed to offer a higher sound quality. Without the need for additional remote controls, the Polycom Trio<\/strong><\/a> touch screen becomes the only interface needed to handle calls, camera zoom and other connected devices.
\n
\nFinally, Polycom Pano<\/strong><\/a> in release 1.2,<\/strong> available from July 2018, will feature a guest access to allow business consultants, customers, partners or providers to connect and share content through a secure WI-FI network.
