We asked 21st Century Video if they could hold a demonstration of Video Conferencing equipment in one of our auditoriums so that we could asses the systems available. Arriving with a trolley load of equipment from different manufacturers, they built a network to show the equipment in operation. Armed with a wealth of technical knowledge of the products, network infrastructure and management they answered all our network and communications questions in plain English whilst offering impartial advice on the merits of the different systems, which allowed us to choose a system that matched our requirements and budget.

Fred Davis, Audio Visual Technician, Said Business School.

Having listened to 21st Century Video’s impartial advice we chose a Sony video conferencing system based on a silver Axia trolley with a 50” Sony plasma screen because not only did it match our requirements for video conferencing, the Sony, although cheaper was the technically superior system and its sleek silver design coupled with the trolley’s glass shelves also ideally matched the glass walled layout of our brand new directors conference room.

Having listened to the FUD (Fear Uncertainty and Doubt) raised by our Australian counterparts relating to a multi-vendor solution, 21st Century Video Limited conducted a video conference which linked Polycom systems in Australia and the USA with a Sony system in the UK, successfully disproving the interoperability fears. Furthermore, as a multi-vendor reseller 21st Century Video were ideally placed to explain the differences between the various manufacturers systems and offer advice tailored to our requirements. We chose a Sony G50 system based on that advice and Sony’s reputation for quality, its superior Multipoint capabilities and the fact that by comparison it was technically the better system for a more affordable price.
