Cisco has launched Project Squared – a cloud-based collaboration app that combines chat, audio, video, multi-party meetings and content sharing in a single experience that supports the demanding collaboration needs of modern teams.
Project Squared is Cisco’s answer to the challenges many workers face on a daily basis: Stay connected across devices, time zones, and project teams. Quickly get up to speed on projects already in progress. Share thoughts and ideas with people both inside and outside the company without violating company security requirements.
Project Squared is built upon the Cisco Collaboration Cloud, a new next-generation platform aligned with Cisco’s Intercloud strategy to enable these best-in-class collaboration experiences. In building the Cisco Collaboration Cloud platform, Cisco leveraged the learnings and technologies from its market-leading web conferencing, video telepresence, unified communications and voice products.
The app is accessible from nearly any device, with an intuitive design that reduces any learning curve. It also works on web browsers, so users can log in from any computer – no VPN or plugins required. It leverages mobile notifications so team members are always reachable and users stay connected to important content and messages from anywhere.
It integrates with important business tools such as calendars, Active Directory, WebEx and Box, so teams can be more effective using the tools they already depend on.
