BRIDGEWATER, NJ--(Marketwired - Jun 25, 2013) - Brother International Corporation, a leader in small business technology, has announced the launch of its OmniJoin™ Web Conferencing in a Box (item #WCB400).

"Brother understands how our customers conduct business, and by offering web-based collaboration through the OmniJoin service, coupled with high quality hardware, we are ultimately helping to improve efficiency, productivity, and the quality of their business interactions."

OmniJoin™ web conferencing offers boardroom-quality web and video conferencing and advanced collaboration tools, like screen sharing, cloud storage, whiteboards, customizable views and chat. The OmniJoin advanced infrastructure ensures all web meetings occur in the 'closest cloud,' resulting in a vast improvement in video quality over many other similar services.
