'We see VoIP as a very important market for our ClearSpeech products', said Gillian Davis, Managing Director of NCT.
'LibreStream evaluating and then choosing ClearSpeech for such a cutting edge video conferencing project is great news, it reassures us that we are very much on track in this market'.
LibreStream's n-sight mobile video collaboration system product can extend the reach and leverage the benefits of an organisation's conferencing infrastructure into the workplace, where mission critical issues need to be reviewed and dealt with on a real-time basis.
It provides collaboration capabilities to locations previously inaccessible to real-time conferencing, such as test labs, health care facilities, factory floors, service departments, remote suppliers, first article inspection areas, customer facilities, and other remote work team locations.
'We evaluated NCT's ClearSpeech echo cancellation solution and found it to be ideal for our project', said Don Freiling, Senior Developer.
'In addition to this, the integration of the ClearSpeech software has been a very positive experience thanks to the great support that the NCT team provide'.
