ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solution products, announced the company has partnered with Mersiveto offer its award-winning Solstice collaboration solution to ViewSonic’s corporate and education customers. Through this partnership, ViewSonic will expand their product line to include Solstice along with their display products, leveraging Solstice’s industry-leading capability for enabling multiple simultaneous users to wirelessly share content from any number of user laptops and mobile devices to in-room displays. This wireless sharing of content quickly and easily creates a collaborative environment that dramatically improves productivity in meeting rooms and classrooms.
“ViewSonic is excited about this partnership with Mersive because it will help provide our customers with new solutions for collaboration and interactivity,” said Mike Holstein, vice president of business development and emerging technologies for ViewSonic Americas. “By partnering with Mersive to offer Solstice collaborative solutions, we can deliver a complete package of hardware and software where customers can share unlimited content, have unrestricted simultaneous users, and ensure a wide range of configurable options and control.”
The Solstice product line includes the Solstice Pod, a turnkey appliance, and Solstice Software, which runs on a Windows host PC. On the client side, Solstice supports iOS, Windows, Android and OSX user devices with a free downloadable client app, allowing users to leverage almost any mobile device in meeting rooms and classrooms. By offering appliance and PC-based versions of the Solstice host, cross platform client support, as well as the Small Group Edition (SGE) and the Unlimited User Edition, customers have complete control over how they want to deploy, manage and support a variety of use cases and budgets.
Solstice is the only solution available with the ability to support any number of connected users and stream an unlimited amount of content while offering numerous host- and client-based options to manage and control how that content is shared. Other category-leading attributes include the Solstice Dashboard which enables centralized management for larger deployments and a variety of different network configuration options on the Solstice Pod.
“Mersive is thrilled to be working with ViewSonic to distribute our Solstice lineup of collaboration solutions,” said Rob Balgley, CEO of Mersive. “ViewSonic is known as the display solutions leader so this is a great way for them to expand their collaboration product offering to the corporate and education markets.
