• Company aligns HP Halo unit within HP ProCurve Networking business

HP today announced a service enabling HP Halo customers to use their telepresence endpoints to reach thousands of people, including employees, partners and suppliers, at one time.

HP Halo Webcasting expands the HP Unified Communications and Collaboration portfolio, giving customers greater choice in implementing solutions that meet their global communication needs.

HP also announced the realignment of the HP Halo business within the HP ProCurve Networking business, which is part of the company’s enterprise-focused Technology Solutions Group responsible for servers, storage, software, networking and services. This move provides customers with “one-stop shopping” in choosing the right video endpoints, services and network solutions that will propel collaboration within their organizations.

“Customers looking for integrated unified communications and collaboration solutions that include endpoint technologies, network management and comprehensive services can turn to HP,” said Alaa AlShimy, General Manager of HP ProCurve Middle East. “Together, these developments and offerings are aimed at helping customers reduce operating costs, lower demands on IT staff, extend their reach and facilitate better business outcomes.”

This end-to-end managed solution enables webcast attendees using notebooks or PCs at home, the office or on the road to easily see and engage with spokespeople webcasting from Halo locations.

All Halo endpoints – including the HP Halo Collaboration Studio, HP Halo Meeting Room and HP Halo Collaboration Center – can be used to conduct these webcasts.
