“Hybrid meetings are here to stay,” said Trent Waterhouse, CEO of Lifesize. “Lifesize MARS makes it easy to work together across geographic and meeting vendor boundaries so people can focus on the meeting topic and content – not the meeting room technology.”
MARS software added to an existing Lifesize hardware environment enables organizations to provide high quality video experiences whether meeting participants are in the office or working from home.
“At Allbridge, we provide unified end-to-end technology solutions for hospitality, mixed use, and multifamily properties. We are in constant communication with partners and customers. Staying connected is critical,” said Todd Johnstone, CEO at Allbridge, the industry-leading provider in full property technology solutions. With Lifesize, our teams can collaborate over video. Now with MARS from Lifesize, they do not have to worry about which meeting application is being used. With one touch, they can join a video call and begin to focus on what’s important, caring for our customers.”
