Webex™ and Placeware™ are well-known companies offering technology for web conferencing and online meetings. They use the Internet to share applications and show pages. Their flagship products are very expensive and require the use of the telephone for voice.

For instance, the cost of Webex’s "pay-per-use" conferencing product is 45¢ per minute per person, plus another 10¢ per minute for the conference call. Placeware has a "pay-per-use" product that is 35¢ per minute per person plus the telephone bridge.

Basic event meetings cost $27 per hour per person plus $1,500 for the "Event Production Specialist" that is used to set it up and operate the meeting, plus $600 to $1,500 per event for Registration Services. So a 100-seat one-hour event starts at $4,800 or $48 per person. Their 10-seat product costs $750 per month, not including voice or $75 per person, while ours is $29.95 per month INCLUDING voice or just $2.95 per person.
