Many see the future of communication being powered by WebRTC, an open source platform that allows anyone to use audio, video and text in the browser without a plugin or any other propriety software. All you need is a WebRTC enabled browser and the smallest of business will be able to provide personalized customer service by talking face to face to its customers; the possibilities are endless. A WebRTC Conference & Expo IV, held June 17-19 at the Cobb Galleria in Atlanta, Georgia showcased the latest technology in the field and presented 10 winners in 11 categories with IceWarp receiving the "Best All Around" award.
The demo event was organized by TMC, Systemwide Media and PKE Consulting to provide accurate information so companies can implement WebRTC technology with the latest and most technically sound advice.
