For every end user we had to buy a different codec box and MCU to do the conferencing. If one wanted to interact with the ten different locations, he or she had to purchase ten different devices to make it happen. Today this scenario has completely changed, in software based solutions MCU is inbuilt and users can add up to 2000 locations.

Apart from inbuilt MCU’s the security, reliability and quality of the video is strategically very high in software in comparison with the hardware solution. The intervention of the H.323 gateway in HD video conferencing software is allowing the users to even connect with the existing hardware VC.
