Advantages of Mconf approach
• Scalable solution: allow thousands of users
(and servers) spread in different regions
(cities, countries, continents)
• Institutions can keep their own use policies
and visual identity: users access the
webconference rooms through their
institutions portal
• On the top of that, it is open source

Mconf usage reports
• Filtering by institution, group of institutions, entire
network

Mconf statistics and usage reports

the usage of each server.
Sala de defesa de Teses e Dissertações
Aula de Mid001 da ESR – nov/2012
Sugestões
• Criar sala de tutorial, com retorno de áudio e vídeo. Essa sala daria suporte
para a pessoa aprender a usar a ferramenta sozinha. Seria uma espécie de
“sala de treinamento”, eventualmente até com desafios.
• ToDo.
