Scheduled and On-Demand Conferencing
The MGC platforms support multiple call scenarios, including both Scheduled and On-Demand (reservationless)
conferencing. Both scenarios can be supported simultaneously on all platforms, with options for entry queues,
password protection, and virtual "meeting rooms", which allow users to initiate an on-demand conference at any time,
from any endpoint (audio or video).
Many organizations have a need for scheduled conferencing, meaning both people and resources (rooms, endpoints,
bridge resources) are confirmed in advance. Polycom has multiple options for scheduling, including MGC Manager
(which is included with all MGC platforms), Polycom WebCommander (which allows for end user scheduling through
a web-browser or Outlook) and Polycom ReadiManager SE200, an "all-in-one" network appliance that provides an
integrated suite of management and scheduling applications on a single platform – gatekeeper, device management,
scheduling and conference management.
With on-demand conferencing, users initiate their own conferences without reserving MCU resources. Users can
either dial the MGC directly ("meet me on the bridge"), or call individual end points directly ("conference on demand")
to initiate the conference.
