Yugma quietly released it's new Enterprise Service feature a few months ago. They released the new web conferencing feature but never actually announced it in a press release, newsletter, or blog post. But they did recently publically release information on their website, and start talking about it on their daily live online demonstrations.
The new feature allows a user (an "administrator" type) to easily and quickly create free Yugma web conferencing accounts for an entire organization in a matter of minutes. This can can done by simply importing an entire organizations user list (csv format) using the new import feature. I'm not aware of any specific system limits to the import feature... so theoretically, you could import/create as many accounts as you would like to create.
While Yugma has not promoted this feature actively, they did recently publish a tutorial for adminsitrators. The tutorial is buried in Yugma's new tutorial page and can be found at http://www.yugma.com/support/tutorials/enterprise.html. The key advantage behind this new feature is that it lets a user to quickly set up free Yugma accounts for their entire team, company, group, etc.. The free accounts are instantly activated with all of the premium features enabled for the first couple of weeks, and then then the accounts automatically revert to the basic online meeting service level for free, forever. The basic version allows users to instantly launch real-time desktop sharing sessions for virtual project team meetings, online presentations, sales training, customer training, contract reviews, budget planning... you name it. According to the tutorial, to create a group of accounts, a user must first create a "group admin account" at http://yugma.com/Enterprise/. After you create the admin account, you then create or import multiple user accounts.
By the way, after the accounts revert to basic accounts, you (the "admin") can upgrade any or all of the accounts to the premium service level by simply contacting Yugma's sales team and purchasing a group subscription.
BTW: One of my personal favorite "free features" is the customizable widget that lets you create a co-brand Yugma button for your website, blog, intranet portal, or email signature. Click here for an example. You can create your own customizable widget at https://www.yugma.com/share/widgets/share_tools.php
We just posted the schedule for Stage 2. Check it out at https://www.yugma.com/stage2/.
If you are at the Web 2.0 Expo, stop by booth #322 during the time posted. You can also attend virtually by clicking on “Join a Session” and using the Session ID noted for the presentation.
It's going to be great... "See you there!"
Yugma is reaching out to Linux community and Microsoft for May 1 “Show Us The Code” deadline
[Note inserted on June 3: View youtube video to see what happened at the 5/1/2007 meeting.]
Yesterday, I issued an invitation to both the Show Us The Code and Microsoft communities regarding a virtual “sit down” for the May 1, 2007 deadline. Yugma’s web collaboration software would enable key players from both groups to join a live session and present their sides.
As many of you know, in a letter to Steven Ballmer, the Linux community has requested that individuals “Publicly pledge your support for Microsoft showing the public the code within Linux that violates their intellectual property by May 1st, 2007. “ Through an open invitation to key players and observers, we intend to provide a forum for each side to address the other.
We’ve been watching this movement and wondering what would materialize on May 1 to complete this debate. Since people all over the world may want to participate, we wanted to offer a solution that would work regardless of geographic location and platform. We’re hoping that we can be one of the catalysts to end this question of code ownership.
The full text of the letter follows:
OPEN LETTER TO: Linux Community & Microsoft
My name is Karel Lukas, and I'm the COO at a web collaboration company called Yugma. I've been following the Show Us The Code movement and Microsoft’s position closely, and understand how important this issue is for the future vitality of the Open Source and Linux communities.
As the May 1st deadline approaches, we at Yugma have been wondering what the ultimate conclusion of this debate will be. Will it quietly fizzle out? Will Microsoft continue to press their case and ignore the challenge? As we are approaching the May 1st deadline, we propose that we all collectively drive this debate to a proper conclusion.
Yugma is about to launch our Linux version, which will make our collaboration service interoperable between Linux, Mac, and PC. We think that makes us the perfect platform for hosting a virtual "sit-down" between the Show Us The Code movement and Microsoft on the day of the deadline.
For this event, we are offering to host a live debate between the Show Us The Code group and Microsoft on May 1st. Microsoft can present the alleged offending code live. Leaders from the Linux community can respond. Yugma will record the session and make it available to both parties afterwards for their own distribution. The date, time, and meeting information follows:
Date/Time: May 1, 2007 at 12:00 Noon Pacific Time
Place: www.yugma.com (click Join Session button)
Teleconference Bridge: +1-218-486-3889
Yugma Session ID: 109-433-046
We think Yugma would be a great venue for educating more people (and the Tech press) about the Show Us The Code movement as well as Microsoft’s position. We are in the process of contacting key contacts within both organizations to identify the key participants for the event. Likewise, key contacts from the Linux community and from Microsoft can contact us at showusthecode@yugma.com . We will be exhibiting at the Web 2.0 Conference in San Francisco April 16-18. If any of you will be there, please stop by the Yugma booth and we can discuss in person (booth #322).
