Video Conferencing: Cloud-Based or Traditional Way?

If you are going to make use of video conferencing, how do you like it to work in your business: would it be Cloud-based or the traditional way? When we say Cloud-based, we simply mean that the VC solution that you are using is something that is based in the Cloud and is offered by a Cloud Service Provider or CSP.

On the other hand, a traditional VC is the old-school VC which is used by many large companies and businesses several years ago. As of the present days, there are still companies and businesses that make use of the traditional VC but the number of users has actually decreased in a significant manner.

Why? This is due to the fact that a traditional VC is known to be very expensive and only large businesses and companies are capable of shouldering the costly fees that need to be paid periodically. If your business is small and your funds are limited, the traditional VC may not be a good option for you. Fir sure, you will only end up broke after paying your initial fees.

But, would there be something that can be used so as to replace the costly traditional VC? Yes, there is and this is the Cloud-based version of it. Like what has been said a while back, a Cloud-based VC is based in the Cloud so everything that you do using this kind of Cloud technology is done and delivered through the Cloud.

As such, you will not have to worry much on the fee that you will have to pay for the service imparted. Since the internet is free, what you will only have to pay is the service rendered to you by the carrier of the service, of course. But if you are going to compare the expenses of both types, you will be glad to know that the Cloud-based type is something that protects much of your business funds and resources.

But you have to take note that a Cloud-based video conferencing solution is internet-dependent so it would be an important thing to consider connecting your device to a trusted, stable and reliable internet connection. Moreover, you also need to make use of a compatible device so as to get yourself started using this kind of communication technology. This should not worry you a lot because a laptop, tablet or smartphone is good enough to help you enjoy the abounding benefits offered by a Cloud-based VC.
