Viztone are an innovative mobile applications provider of Video RingBack Tones (VRBT) based in UK although with the potential to offer their services worldwide.
The “RingBack Tone” those two tones that you hear whilst you’re waiting for someone to pick up your call. Viztones innovation is to replace or supplement those monotonous tones with more interesting or informative content, typically an advertisement. What’s more, within the mobile phone environment they suggest that the advertisement could actually be delivered in video format too!
Their Chairman Martyn Butterworth takes up the story, “We are young and developing business and consequently seem to spend an awful lot of time swapping business plans, spreadsheets and forecasts between ourselves and our professional advisers. These documents invariably change over time and so knowing where the latest version is has been a great help. Another benefit is that we frequently find ourselves dealing with large files, typically Video media relating to advertising content, the collabor8 portal has been a great help in this way and is much easier to use for large files than e-mail.”
This use is typical amongst collabor8′s growing band of users, contractual documents of any kind, word documents, Excel spreadsheets or technical drawings in CAD or PDF format invariably change and evolve as projects progress. Having a central repository to store current and previous versions of such documentation is an extremely popular use of our application. With more more servers rejecting large e-mail attachments the portal also presents a convenient way of sharing large files be they technical drawings or media content such as that used by Viztone and of course, you have the additional comfort of not having to worry about viruses within e-mails and having your documents stored in a private, invitation only extranet solution.
Ease-of-use, is another key benefit Martyn Butterworth again:
Yes, it’s very easy to use there are plenty of us here who would not consider ourselves technical wizards in any way and yet we’ve all been able to pick it up with more or less no training.
