A big question about our Spirit on Demand video conferencing suite is why pay for video conferencing when free services, like Skype, exist? It’s a logical question and an important one for business professionals to consider.

Skype is a good solution for letting the kids talk to grandma or for chatting with your best friend in another state, but when it comes to professional business meetings, free isn’t always the best. One of the most important benefits of Spirit on Demand is the ability to conference with multiple people. Free services tend to work best for one-on-one conversations. Typically, a business meeting includes a larger group.

Also, business quality video conferencing services are just that: business quality. They don’t have the lag time, grainy picture quality or glitches a free service might. The last thing you want when pitching to potential investors is a lag in your presentation that makes you look unprofessional.
