Oblong Announces New Cisco Webex Certification

New Cisco certification ensures video device users have enhanced user experience while gaining ten times the content collaboration experience with Mezzanine™

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oblong, Inc. (NYSE American: OBLG) (“Oblong” or the “Company”), the award-winning maker of multi-stream collaboration solutions, today announced that Oblong’s Mezzanine™ solution has been solely awarded a new Cisco Certification in the Content Experiences category. This new certification offers Webex video device users a more seamless user experience, dramatically increasing their ability to share and engage with live content streams. Mezzanine’s integration with Webex allows distributed teams to share up to 10 live streams of content simultaneously delivering both a unique and unsurpassed level of user engagement. In addition to in-room experiences, Oblong’s certified integration enables remote participants to be “full” participants in the meeting. By using newly added features in Webex, touch-enabled devices can now remotely connect participants to a Mezzanine experience.

Oblong’s technologies accelerate innovation - specifically, the third wave of computing which is bringing connections between the physical and digital worlds much closer together enabling businesses to solve problems faster and more effectively than ever before.

“Oblong is proud to be among the very first partners awarded this new certification by Cisco,” said Pete Holst, CEO of Oblong. “Our partnership is changing how customers interact with data by creating powerful experiences to expedite decision making. The growing connection between humanity and machines has exponential probabilities to deliver results neither could do on their own. What we’re doing is augmenting engagement, creativity and imagination.”
