IP-based communications

Userful provides an industry-leading approach to AV-over-IP-based communications

Userful’s video wall controller software enables customers to display content from any source, on any screen, or portion of a screen, on up to 100+ displays using just one standard PC or server and delivered through the network. Userful’s technology allows users to easily display content from a variety of sources while also enabling multiple team members to control the mouse and keyboard of the video wall for easy collaboration.

With the ease of desktop sharing, users will be able to quickly and easily connect one or more laptops or desktops from anywhere in the working space. Userful provides an industry-leading approach to AV-over-IP-based communications, the Visual Networking Platform.

Cloud platform

The architecture allows organisations in industries ranging from telecommunications to transportation to take maximum advantage of video and other visual displays to improve operating performance and reduce total cost of ownership (TCO). Products that make up the Visual Networking Platform include software, a cloud platform and apps that enable AV/IT teams to make visual content of any type available on a virtually unlimited number of screens.

Organisations in more than 100 countries have deployed Userful solutions on more than 1 million screens to date.
