This new version enables concurrent, interactive video participation of 100 people in each conference on PCs and tablets.

VideoMost 4.0 allows up to 100 participants in a conference to receive and transmit video and voice from all other participants without any additional settings. VideoMost 4.0 allows live video discussion via the Internet providing full interactivity for sharing ideas, like in real life.

VideoMost 4.0 will expand the opportunities for large organizations, allowing discussions and meetings being almost unbound by the number of participants. Educational institutions will appreciate the new opportunities to increase the efficiency of learning and interactive communication between pupils, students and teachers in large virtual classrooms.

The new VideoMost version has also expanded functionality including: moderation, speakers management, text chat pre-moderation, XML-RPC protocol support, scalability increase to nearly unlimited number of conferences in a cluster, customizable reports, and many other new features, demanded by large corporate customers.

“Interactive video participation of up to 100 people in a VideoMost 4.0 conference is highly demanded by our large corporate customers, while no VideoMost competitors, can deliver such functionality,” says Andrew Sviridenko, Chairman of SPIRIT DSP.
