New version of forge platform enables enhanced
video and audio conferencing, flexible recording, and
greater control with hybrid deployment, routing
and delivery options - sign up to forge today to enhance
your mobile app or website
Xura, Inc. (NASDAQ: MESG), a major innovator in Real-Time
Communication (RTC) technology, today announced the latest advanced
features for its forge RTC platform. These include enhanced
conferencing functionality, for easier usage and management of
video and audio calls, as well as more flexible recording features
and the ability for on-premise deployment and fallback routing,
meaning users can keep all decrypted and stored media under their
own control, and have more power over what happens to messages or
calls which can't be delivered.
All accessible now via the forge platform at forge.xura.com via
a self-service portal, enterprises and developers can effortlessly
integrate any forge feature, such as SMS, IP messaging, push
notifications, video and voice chat, as well as intelligent
routing, rich media file transfer, recording and presence, into
their mobile apps and websites to create better communication
experiences with their customers. The most recent unique features
available on forge now include:
- Hybrid deployment options
- Flexible recording
- Easy to use audio and video conferencing
- Advanced routing control
With hybrid deployment users of the forge RTC platform can now
keep all decrypted and stored media under their own control,
directly addressing any privacy, regulatory, and security concerns
users may have today with cloud-based real-time communications.
This also means that with the updated forge recording appliance
(when installed on-premise) users can control the post-processing
of recordings before final storage and can easily playback and use
the recordings that they have produced. Also, now with fallback
routing in forge, users have total flexibility in terms of what
happens to messages and calls that cannot be immediately delivered
to a forge destination, giving greater control over when messages
and calls should be discarded, held until the destination is
available, or delivered through another mechanism. Lastly,
enhancements to the forge conferencing features make audio and
video conferences much easier to manage and use.
JF Sullivan, EVP Enterprise & CMO at Xura, stated: "The
forge platform was built to give any enterprise or developer the
power to inject smarter communications into any mobile application
(iOS and Android) or website. With the broadest and most flexible
feature set on the market, anyone using the forge platform can
easily create at the touch of a button, click-to-communicate and
contextual communications within their app to drive a new era of
customer experience and relationships. Users in the forge ecosystem
can bring state of the art interaction capabilities, such as those
announced today for conferencing, recording, deployment and
delivery, into any enterprise or consumer app, from financial
services, healthcare, retail and entertainment to gaming and more,
without having to spend time on complex developments and supporting
multiple platforms."
