Deployment tool · 01
Plan the callbefore the licence.
This deployment configurator sizes a video conferencing platform for business by the meeting you actually run. Choose hosts, largest meeting, quality, modules, recording and dial-in. It returns bandwidth, storage and the licence tier implied by those choices, then fills an inquiry with the result.
Use the real constraints
Most teams overbuy capacity and underbuy dial-in. They count every person in the directory, then discover that the busy call is 100 people and the weak link is a foreman in a truck. This tool makes those decisions visible before a proposal arrives.
A 720p tile needs about 1.2 Mbps each way. Ask for 1080p and that becomes 3. Plan for the person on hotel wifi. The host upload figure adds a screen-share peak, because the presenter is the person most likely to blame the platform when an upload line folds.
The output is a sizing sketch, not a quote. Prices depend on the hosts, meeting sizes and modules you ask us to put in writing. Every first proposal starts monthly. Annual terms happen only when you ask for them.
Live calculation
Choose the shapeof your deployment.
Move a control or change a choice. The result updates immediately. The configuration is stored in the URL so you can send the page to a colleague without writing the numbers again.
The configurator runs in the browser. With scripting switched off it cannot calculate, so call +1 (925) 555-2231 or write to [email protected] with your host count and largest meeting and we will size it with you.
How to read the result
Licence tier follows the largest meeting. Up to 100 participants is Team, up to 300 is Business, up to 500 is Large, and 1,000 is Enterprise. Selecting Admin and Security lifts a Team configuration to Business because the admin console begins there.
Per-participant bandwidth is the video rate each way. Host upload adds 1.5 Mbps for screen share to the selected video rate. That is a planning number, not a promise about a particular home connection.
New recordings is the monthly amount from your recorded hours. Held at retention applies your chosen 7, 30, 90 or 365 days. One hour of 1080p is roughly 600 MB. One hour at 720p is about 300 MB. Audio is about 30 MB an hour.
It will not pretend to know your price.
A number without your host count, storage choice and largest meeting is theatre. The inquiry gets a written proposal instead.
A plain-text handoff.
The inquiry at the bottom receives the selected tier, bandwidth, modules, recording arithmetic, retention and warnings. Edit it when the sketch does not describe the work.
A few decisionsthe slider cannot make.
Weak links change the answer
Most calls fail on the upload side. Your attendees can hear you fine; you cannot hear them. If your dial-in minutes are heavy, the warning will suggest 720p even when 1080p looks better on a good office connection.
Storage is a policy, not a trophy
365 days sounds safe until every hour becomes a file that nobody watches. Choose 30 days when the work is current. Choose 90 or 365 when your records genuinely need that history. The tool shows held storage so the tradeoff is in front of you.
Turn on the thing you will use
Webinars are for separated panelists and attendees. Dial-in is for people without a stable data connection. Recording is for a record that someone will use. If a module exists only because every other vendor lists it, leave it off.
Hosts are not attendees
Hosts start and run meetings. Attendees do not count as hosts. A 500-person meeting can have a small host group, and a distributed company can need more hosts than the people in its largest call. The two controls are separate for that reason.
