Our goal for Web-4M was simple:
to create the best collaboration tool on the planet (full-featured),
and make it useable by anyone (browser accessible), on any
computer (cross-platform), on any network (firewall tunneling)
at an affordable price. We believe we have succeeded. We
know Web-4M isn’t the only collaboration software out there.
We also know that most of our competitors lack important
features.
Some don’t do audio (or do
it badly) or video, some won’t let you host on your own
server, some only work on Windows servers and clients, and
some simply cost a fortune. Here are some key reasons we
believe you should consider Web-4M. Web-4M is Full Featured
Web-4M does everything you want collaboration software to
do. Audio, video, application sharing, conferencing, recording,
editing, chat, whiteboarding, email, news, calendaring...etc.
All over the web, all with one program. No extra programs,
no separate phone conference, no additional costs. Just
one browser accessible program.
Web-4M Requires No Software
Installation The client software is a Java applet, which
is automatically downloaded and run by your browser. This
eliminates mass distribution of software. Upgrades are handled
automatically by the software. The server, of course, does
need to be installed on your webserver, unless we host it
for you. Web-4M is Cross-Platform The Web-4M server is 100%
Java, and will run on almost anything which supports Java.
We currently support Linux, Windows, and Solaris servers,
and some of our customers are using Mac OS X as the server.
On the client side, Web-4M
runs with both IE and Netscape/Mozilla on the Windows, Linux,
Solaris, and Mac platforms. Even our audio is cross-platform,
allowing full-duplex phoning and audio conferencing among
all platforms. Web-4M Runs on Your Server (or Ours) We let
you host Web-4M on your own server and network. While we
will host if asked, we find that most of our customers already
have a good Internet connection.
Because Web-4M is easy to
configure and manage, it is reasonable for our customers
to manage their own Web-4M installation - fully supported
by us of course! Web-4M Drills through Firewalls Web-4M’s
companion software product, Access-4M, allows clients to
penetrate their firewalls, or your firewall, by routing
communication via port 80 HTTP requests. Access-4M then
routes these requests (and the responses) to and from the
Web-4M server.
