konectar Virtual Engagement Platform vs. Polycom RealPresence Immersive Studio

konectar has been a great tool to connect with HCP's during the pandemic time as we were not able to meet with them face to face. It was extremely important to use an application that is easy and compliant as well as cost effective. konectar VEP has served all the purpose. Great work!!

I find Polycom RealPresence to be useful when having one on one conversations in purpose built rooms for video conferencing. That is where the quality of the product shines. However, I dislike using Polycom Real Presence for any sort of content sharing because of the issues around resolution.If I need to share content of any kind, I prefer to use other teleconferencing solutions.

It is one of the best platforms and is really easy to use. konectar VEP has been an excellent tool for internal meetings and external meetings as well. Since it has automated interactions, it becomes less work for our team not to take notes. It also has the recording feature so we have all the information needed all the time.

Support is available anytime. [It has] all the cool features we need and also very easy to use. We have never faced any difficulty or problem from the day we started using the application. The screen share and the recording features work so smoothly. konectar VEP has been a great savior especially during the pandemic.

We evaluated several vendors who could provide a robust and compliant virtual engagement platform. konectar VEP impressed us with a lot of different features we needed. We wanted a robust, compliant, cost effective, easy to use application. There are no add ons or plugins for konectar. It works with a single click and provides all the necessary features.

Polycom RealPresence is really only the preferred teleconferencing solution when using a purpose built room for a scheduled face to face meeting. For ad hoc video meetings, Hangouts, Skype, and Slack all provide fewer friction points for average use cases. In fact, as Google accounts are nearly ubiquitous at this point, Hangouts has almost become the de facto standard for ad hoc video conferencing amongst our users.

• No travel required.
• Cost effective.
• Easy adoption.
• No IT overheads.

• Personally we have not gotten our money's worth, but this is not Polycom's fault, it is because users found it difficult to use.
• As for me personally, I used it for video conferencing, but my job was to make sure that it was operational for video conferencing.
• As stated earlier, even though I found it very easy to use, my users did not, and as such tended to video conference with other apps.
