Welcome new users to CACI's web conferencing solutions.

CACI currently has two web conferencing solutions: IBM's Sametime and InterCall for you to choose. Both offer the same basic web conferencing services: white boarding, screen sharing, etc. Below are descriptions for each and suggestions for choosing between the solutions.

IBM Sametime
IBM Sametime is a web conferencing solution that CACI owns and hosts within our own data centers. Sametime is linked to our Lotus Notes mail system, so each user with a Lotus Notes account also has a Sametime account. CIS manages Sametime licences just like it does Lotus Notes licenses, so users will not incur costs for using this service. The Sametime solution also has the ability to extend web conferences to external users (CACI clients or remote users) through the use of an external server. External users must go through a self registration process prior to using Sametime for the first time. Sametime uses Java applets during meetings, this may be a problem if a site blocks Java. If you are interested in using Sametime for the first time, please follow the link below to the first time user page for Sametime.

InterCall
InterCall is a conference hosting service. It provides several hosted services to CACI, including: audio conference calling and web conferencing. InterCall's web conferencing service is a 'pay as you use it' service. Charges are per user, per minute, and are billed to the user's home org. for payment. As it is a service, InterCall is hosted outside CACI and is available to both internal and external users. InterCall uses Microsoft ActiveX during meetings, this may be a problem if a site blocks ActiveX. If you are interested in using InterCall for the first time, please follow the link below to the first time user page for InterCall.
