Cisco Unified MeetingPlace

®

 conferencing is an on-premises virtual meeting solution within Cisco Unified 

Communications. It delivers an exceptional user experience with integrated voice, video, and web conferencing and 

interfaces that make it simple to set up, attend, and manage meetings. Cisco Unified MeetingPlace conferencing 

extends the value of Cisco WebEx

™

 meeting applications with on-premises voice, video, and web conferencing 

options that provide cost savings and added security. 

Cisco Unified MeetingPlace conferencing promotes effective collaboration by allowing people to meet at anytime from 

anywhere without the expense and inefficiencies of traveling. You can expand your organization's reach, improve its 

operational effectiveness, and speed decision making by integrating audio, video, and web collaboration into 

everyday communications and reducing distance as a constraint to deploying expertise. The ability to share 
presentations and applications and see remote attendees’ body language contributes to effective virtual sales 

presentations, training, and project team meetings. 

The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace solution is deployed on-premises and integrated with your organization's internal IP 

networks. On-premises deployment facilitates cost savings because it can use investments in IP networks and 

telephony to best advantage to reduce conferencing-related transport costs and services fees. 

The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace solution is integrated with Cisco WebEx meeting applications to combine the cost-

savings advantages of on-premises audio conferencing with productivity benefits of web conferencing delivered over 

the Cisco WebEx Collaboration Cloud. The Cisco WebEx Node for MCS is a software component that is deployed 

with Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8.0 to provide on-premises data options and improved performance for Cisco 

WebEx meetings. 

Cisco Unified MeetingPlace conferencing is integrated with multiple applications and devices to enable you to better 

integrate conferencing into your business processes. Intuitive interfaces make setting up, attending, and managing 

meetings easy. Industry-standard protocols are supported to enable meeting attendance from virtually any phone and 

video application or endpoint. The solution has unified audio and video capabilities so meeting access and in-meeting 

features are consistent across voice and video. This simple-to-use model leads to quick adoption and realization of 

productivity benefits.
