Teliris Receives ‘Positive’ Rating in Leading Analyst Firm’s Telepresence MarketScope

NEW YORK -

Teliris (www.teliris.com), the leading global provider of agile telepresence and collaboration, today announced that it received a “Positive” rating in Gartner’s “MarketScope for Video Telepresence Systems” by Robert Mason and Scott Morrison.

In the June 2009 report, which assessed seven telepresence providers with at least 50 multiscreen systems installed, Teliris received the highest rating awarded to a telepresence provider. The Gartner MarketScope evaluated the telepresence vendors on a variety of criteria including customer experience, market responsiveness, track record, products and services.

Teliris recently announced its breakthrough 6G platform, which allows the telepresence experience to be delivered over general purpose networks. The standards-based client-server software solution delivers an agile solution to reduce network costs and extend the reach of telepresence.

“With 6G telepresence, Teliris is changing the way people look at telepresence - it is now more affordable and more easily deployable,” said Marc Trachtenberg, Teliris CEO and co-founder. “Gartner’s report confirms Teliris’ belief that our decade of experience in the telepresence space has allowed us develop the most agile telepresence solution ever, extending the reach of telepresence beyond the boardroom.”

As the longtime telepresence leader in both innovation and deployments, Teliris is the only solution delivering telepresence over general purpose networks. Teliris has the broadest suite of telepresence products ranging from sub-US$8,000 desktop solutions to boardroom systems. All Teliris solutions offer comprehensive interoperability options that allow for connection to any system, anywhere and an end-to-end managed service with a 99+ percent reliability guarantee.
