It's good to see that the Yugma desktop sharing tool has made it to Skype's very own short list of valuable "extras" for Skype users. Skype lists their list of "handy tools and plugin's" at http://skype.com/business/tools/extras/ . Yugma is listed first as one of the two desktop sharing tools mentioned.
It's interesting to note that Unyte, a screen sharing app that was heavily promoted by Skype in 2005/2006, and was subsequently purchased in 2007 by IBM, is lo longer listed or mentioned.
(Disclosure: Being as I helped to launch the company's web based service back in 2006, I own some shares in Yugma.)
Yugma's service was recently
included in a
vendor-independent review of 21 web conferencing solutions and came out
number three in the world, ahead of competitors like Microsoft, IBM, Adobe and
NetMeeting.
On a scale of evaluated features ranging from 1 to 10, Yugma 3.0 Professional achieved a score of 9.0, barely behind the 9.1 received by WebEx MeetMeNow 2.1 and the 9.5 awarded to Citrix GoToMeeting 4.0, according to www.webconferencing-test.com reviews of online- collaboration products.
