Cisco France Blog / Collaboration / Cisco reconnu comme leader dans le dernier Gartner MarketScope for Group Video Systems de juin 2014

Gartner a publié le 24 Juin 2014 sa dernière étude “MarketScope for Group Video Systems” et reconnait Cisco comme leader dans la fourniture de services Vidéo aux entreprises.

Cisco est reconnu pour être en mesure de proposer une solution de bout-en-bout : de l’infrastructure aux terminaux en mettant en avant le renouveau intégral de la gamme de systèmes vidéo de salle de réunions.

De manière plus complète, Gartner insiste sur les éléments suivants de notre portfolio :

• La simplicité du tout dernier SX10,
• La nouvelle gamme de terminaux personnels de type DX70 et DX80 alliant qualité et positionnement prix,
• Le renouveau des terminaux de salle de réunions avec les nouveaux MX700, MX800 ainsi que le support d’H265,
• La capacité de proposer notre infrastructure sur des appliances ou de manière totalement virtualisée,
• L’innovation autour des usages :
  • Cisco Proximity pour contrôler le terminal de salle depuis un SmartPhone ou une tablette,
  • Speaker Track permettant de suivre automatiquement l’interlocuteur avec un système intelligent à deux caméras,
• Cisco VCS Expressway qui offre les fonctionnalités de sécurité vidéo et d’interopérabilité avec des systèmes vidéo tiers (Microsoft Lync 2013, Polycom, …),
• Jabber Guest afin de faciliter les communications en apportant les fonctions de communications voix et vidéo dans un simple navigateur Web,
• …

Gartner nous reconnait également la capacité de proposer des références clients de plusieurs milliers de terminaux vidéo (salles, personnels, logiciels sur les postes de travail)…

Unlike many of the vendors in this MarketScope, Cisco has reference accounts with thousands of endpoints deployed across each category, including room systems, executive desktops and soft endpoints, all in the same enterprise.

Gartner client inquiry continues to demonstrate strong preference for Cisco as a leading group video vendor, even in accounts with established UC competitors

Enterprises of all sizes should consider Cisco for its complete range of group systems, executive and personal endpoints, and enabling video infrastructure.

Cisco remains the share leader for enterprise video, with comprehensive offers across endpoints and infrastructure. An early leader in multicodec telepresence systems, Cisco has continued to reshape its portfolio to reflect changing expectations for cost, reach and ease-of-use. To address the growing interest in video for shared spaces, Cisco introduced the Cisco TelePresence SX10 Quick Set (SX10), a fully self-contained endpoint that can be added to any off-the-shelf HDMI display. More than just a smaller system, the SX10 has a setup wizard to simplify first-time setup.

For the desktop, Cisco introduced the DX70 and DX80, integrated collaboration endpoints that enable high-quality personal video at aggressive price points. For larger rooms, Cisco introduced additional hard endpoints. The Cisco TelePresence MX700 offers two 55-inch displays, while the TelePresence MX800 has a single 70-inch display. These larger endpoints reflect a continued shift to free-standing form factors that eliminate room remediation. These new MX Series endpoints and the SX80 Codec are the first commercially available systems to support H.265, an approach to video coding that delivers approximately two times the gain in bandwidth efficiency. Hard endpoints also feature Intelligent Proximity, an ultrasonic pairing approach to allow local control and content sharing with local mobile devices. To drive reach and third-party connectivity, Cisco offers Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server Expressway (Cisco VCS Expressway), a border element that can interwork video signaling. Ad hoc video can be facilitated through WebEx, as well as through the recently added Cisco Jabber Guest that permits interactive video to be embedded in the browser. Enabling infrastructure for the endpoints is available in appliance, chassis and virtualized options.

Unlike many of the vendors in this MarketScope, Cisco has reference accounts with thousands of endpoints deployed across each category, including room systems, executive desktops and soft endpoints, all in the same enterprise. Gartner client inquiry continues to demonstrate strong preference for Cisco as a leading group video vendor, even in accounts with established UC competitors. The threat to Cisco in enterprise video is less from direct substitution than from greater adoption of best-effort video and commodity endpoints. As personal video use escalates, more enterprises are exploring cloud-based video meetings to better characterize their demand set and avoid overinvesting in infrastructure. Cisco will need to deliver on its plans for the Cisco WebEx Meeting Center option for collaboration meeting rooms that will support third-party standards-based endpoints.

Enterprises of all sizes should consider Cisco for its complete range of group systems, executive and personal endpoints, and enabling video infrastructure.
