Unified Communication & Video Collaboration Company of the Year

CIO Review named PeopleLink among the most promising and leading Unified Communications and Video Collaboration Companies of the Year 2015.

What sits behind a recognition like that is rarely a single product. It is the ability to equip every kind of space an organisation uses to meet, from a two-person huddle room to a 300-seat auditorium, and to make them all behave the same way. That is the problem PeopleLink is built to solve.

Most meeting-room problems come from mismatched parts: a camera from one brand, a microphone from another, a room system from a third, and no single owner when something fails. PeopleLink designs, assembles and manufactures the full stack, the cameras, the audio, and the room conferencing endpoints, and builds the software that runs them.

Because the parts are tuned together, the organisation gets consistent quality across rooms and a single point of support. One ticket, one engineer, one platform to update, instead of several vendors pointing at each other while a meeting room sits idle.

Room size decides the right build. A small huddle space works well with a compact camera and a single speakerphone. A standard meeting room needs a wider camera and a microphone array that picks up the whole table. Large boardrooms and training rooms call for a PTZ camera with optical zoom and ceiling microphones so people at the far end are seen and heard clearly.

PeopleLink’s video conferencing solutions cover this full range, which means an organisation can standardise on one vendor whether it is fitting out a single room or a hundred. Each room type becomes a repeatable design rather than a one-off project.

Hardware alone does not make collaboration consistent. PeopleLink pairs its room hardware with its own software, including inMeet for professional video meetings and inFusion for the meeting room, so starting a call is simple and the experience is the same everywhere. For organisations that need to embed video into their own apps and workflows, inAPI provides a white-label video engine.

Tying rooms and software together under one OEM is what turns scattered meeting rooms into a managed estate the IT team can actually run. To plan a rollout across sites, PeopleLink’s room endpoint range is the place to start.

For an organisation running dozens of rooms, reliability is the real currency. A single-OEM estate is updated as one platform, so firmware versions stay aligned and a fix reaches every room at once. A repeatable room design means a replacement part or a new site follows a known recipe rather than a fresh integration project.

When something does go wrong, there is one support path rather than a chain of vendors pointing at each other. That is the difference between a meeting that starts on time and an IT team that spends its mornings troubleshooting AV instead of shipping its roadmap.
