Mikogo announces a second beta release of its VOIP feature and adds Mac compatibility for cross-platform online meetings with built-in voice conferencing. Users do not require any additional software, but rather can use the latest Mikogo version to now organize desktop sharing meetings and speak to each other directly through the software, live over the Web.
- (1888PressRelease) July 12, 2013 - London, UNITED KINGDOM - Mikogo, the renowned cloud communication service, has announced the second release of its online meeting software with the beta VOIP feature for voice conferencing, now available on both Windows and Mac. While firstly adding cross-platform functionality to Mikogo voice conferencing, this new release also provides new advanced audio settings for enhanced voice conferences over the Web.
By adding VOIP to both its Windows and Mac versions, Mikogo has built a complete web conferencing solution with desktop sharing, voice conferencing and further online meeting features which is now cross-platform on the worlds' two most popular computer platforms. The all-in-one tool will greatly facilitate meetings for the Mikogo customers and their meeting participants.
The new release allows a user to start an online meeting on either a Windows or Mac computer and then add the voice conferencing component to the meeting when required. Participants can join the meeting, again from either a Windows or Mac, and will be connected in a desktop sharing meeting while speaking to each other via the built-in VOIP feature, with no additional software required. The software intuitively detects all speakers and microphones available at the user's disposal and allows the user to easily switch between different devices.
The advanced audio settings, a completely new addition to the Mikogo software with this release, allow users to adjust their microphone sensitivity as well as enable the noise reduction and echo cancellation options. Adjusting the microphone sensitivity helps completely remove any background noises from interfering with the user's voice conference.
"Although releasing VOIP for our Windows version was a great initial step, it was crucial to expand and provide this as a cross-platform feature and meet the demand from our Mac customers," explains Matthias Litz, Mikogo's Product Development Manager. "Furthermore, the new built-in advanced settings are a great addition as they ensure optimal call quality for each user by placing the control directly in the hands of the users."
While still a beta release, the new cross-platform VOIP feature is available now in the latest Mikogo software version for download from http://www.mikogo.com/download/
