MightyMeeting Transforms Content Sharing with iPad Application
Cloud-Based Collaboration Platform Turns Tablet into a High-Impact Business Tool
PALM DESERT, Calif., March 22 -- MightyMeeting, an innovative mobile collaboration and social publishing company, today unveiled its new business application for the iPad by Apple at this year's DEMO Spring 2010 conference, a semi-annual event that identifies new market-shaping technologies by giving companies just six minutes to demonstrate how their product will change the world. MightyMeeting's suite of applications for mobile and hand-held devices, including the iPhone, iPod Touch, Android and now iPad, allows users to turn their devices into powerful business tools for high-resolution multimedia presentations and content sharing.
Today, hundreds of millions of professionals use smart phones to communicate and stay connected with their customers and partners. The iPad - with its intuitive touch screen capabilities, collaborative format, wireless network connectivity and high-resolution display - now offers an even larger untapped potential for business users to communicate. With MightyMeeting's iPad application, traveling business executives and remote workers can turn their mobile devices into a powerful tool that allows them to share and showcase business content. The application allows users to start or join Web meetings, show presentations and share content directly from their iPad devices. Users can schedule meetings that are integrated into Microsoft Outlook, Google Calendar and Apple's iCal.
"Faster mobile networks, powerful new devices and increasingly mobile workforces make it the perfect time for products and services that enable mobile collaboration and content sharing," said Dmitri Tcherevik, founder and CEO of MightyMeeting. "The iPad is optimal for viewing and sharing images, videos and documents. Leveraging MightyMeeting's technology, users can turn the iPad into a powerful tool to connect and share this content with others in real time."
MightyMeeting's content-sharing capabilities are built on a unique system architecture that combines the latest achievements in mobile and cloud computing technologies. Users can add content either by uploading it from a desktop or by sending it to an e-mail address associated with their MightyMeeting account. Then, MightyMeeting automatically converts this content into formats suitable for delivery to different types of devices. In addition to the native application for devices running iPhone OS, such as iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch, MightyMeeting offers a lightweight HTML-only client that can be used to start and join Web meetings from any device with a Web browser. This month, MightyMeeting will also introduce a Flash-based client to deliver an optimized experience for desktop users.
"As a manager of a mobile sales force, I know how critical it is for our team to be able to share our presentation materials without access to a cumbersome laptop," said William King, general manager for the pharmacy division of a leading hospital software developer. "As the places and times we conduct business expand outside the 'nine to five' of office confines, tools like MightyMeeting's application for the iPad will allow us to effectively deliver our message in an easy-to-share format."
The iPad application from MightyMeeting is free to iPad users and will be available shortly after the product arrives in U.S. stores on April 3, 2010. Visit MightyMeeting's Web site for a full demo of all MightyMeeting's solutions.
