Arel Communications & Software's Arel Anyware(TM) Enhances
Conferencing and Collaboration Experience for Microsoft(R)
Office Live Meeting Users
Arel Communications and Software (NASDAQ: ARLC), technology leader
in universal voice, video and data Web communication for interactive
conferencing and collaboration, today announced that Dassault
Systemes, a world leader in 3D and product lifecycle management (PLM)
solutions, has chosen to implement the Arel Anyware plug-in for
corporate communications through Microsoft Office Live Meeting. Arel
Anyware is an audio-visual plug-in that establishes true
'face-to-face' meetings by adding multi-point video and wideband audio
capabilities to Live Meeting sessions.
Dassault Systemes (www.3ds.com), based in Paris, has been a
pioneer in the 3D software market since 1981. The company develops and
markets PLM application software and services that support industrial
processes and provide a 3D vision of the entire life cycle of products
from conception to maintenance. Arel Anyware will enable Dassault
Systemes' employees, customers, and partners to engage in
video-enabled Live Meeting sessions for more productive and effective
online meetings.
Vincent Picou, group IT manager for Dassault Systemes said, "We
have decided to use Arel Anyware together with Live Meeting on a
global basis for potential use by our 5,400 employees. These tools
will help our teams, dispersed all around the world at 89 sites, to
work together synchronously with their colleagues and external
partners. Real-time communication is part of our culture - software
design and testing is an activity that never stops. We are convinced
that a desktop solution that can be used instantly and easily will
increase the quality of the interaction between our employees and with
our partners. This integrated rich media solution can replicate a true
face-to-face experience online and will help us achieve team building
on a worldwide scale. As an IT organization we are continuously
looking for lean and efficient solutions to improve our ability to
work faster and more effectively."
Picou continued, "Among the different solutions we evaluated, Arel
Anyware was simply the easiest to deploy on our network and the
multi-point audio/video experience is great. The solution is extremely
agile and is able to adapt perfectly to our existing network
infrastructure. The installation was managed by Comiris Technologies
and was seamless."
Philippe Szwarc, CEO of Arel Communications & Software said, "At
Arel, we are extremely proud to see Arel Anyware selected by Dassault
Systemes as a global communication solution. What Dassault Systemes is
doing illustrates perfectly how a global organization can use the
latest real-time collaboration technologies to gain better agility,
efficiency and customer satisfaction. Used globally, Arel Anyware can
provide the company with significant competitive advantages."
The Arel Anyware solution will be supplied to Dassault Systemes by
Comiris Technologies, a leading European conferencing and
collaboration solutions provider, representing Arel since 2004.
Gael Tempier, CEO of COMIRIS Technologies said, "By choosing Arel
Anyware as a key component of its collaboration infrastructure,
Dassault Systemes is validating the approach and the technology we
proposed. We are proud to expand our relationship with Dassault
Systemes by becoming their Arel Anyware supplier. We are convinced
that Arel Anyware will be selected by a growing number of European
customers that are actively seeking an enhanced online conferencing
and collaboration experience."
