Cloud-based videoconferencing provider Glowpoint, which launched its "Virtual Video Room" in February, is adding meeting control features, more content sharing capabilities and increased interoperability to the platform.

VVR 2.0 now allows a meeting host to optimize video for meeting participants and to adjust the screen layout for multipoint meetings in continuous or voice switched mode. Meeting hosts also can now add or drop meeting participants during the meeting, mute video and/or audio for individual participants and view the connection quality of individual participants, all features that most higher-end videoconferencing solutions contain. Glowpoint also has upgraded to allow customers to choose among seven different language options for the portal, including English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Chinese and Japanese.

"We are delivering a more flexible, personal user experience, which we firmly believe will further drive usage," stated Anil Balani, SVP of product development.

VVR 2.0 users also can add Microsoft Lync and OCS users to meetings via a Cisco Video Communication Server (VCS) installed on the customer's network and managed from Glowpoint's OpenVideo cloud. VVR 2.0 also includes support for SIP based endpoints utilizing BFCP.
