Octopz official launch at Web 2.0 Expo
Well today’s the big day! The show booth is up, the official news release went out on the news wire, and we’re all ready and excited to show off the first release of Octopz to the whole wide world.
Early reaction has been very positive with people highlighting a range of Octopz benefits, including:
- the simple, intuitive interface
- the fact that Octopz works inside the web browser, so there is no software to install
- the multiple messaging and chat options (text, voice and video) built into Octopz
- the collaboration and markup of documents AND digital media, including video
- the simplified pricing and affordability of our software at $99/month, compared to other services with similar features
Here are some links to blog posts and an online review of Octopz:
Josh Lowensohn and his colleagues at CNET’s seem to like it. Check out their collaboration art in the review.
Adobe’s veteran blogger and evangelist John Dowdell sites the above review and uses Octopz as an example of how video communication is going to be big in 2007.
New tech ventured blog The Alarm Clock highlights that Octopz has received venture funding from GrowthWorks. So does social networking news site Mashable.com
Over at KillerStartups.com, user rachsig thinks Octopz is a winner because:
Octopz is much more affordable than Abode Acrobat Connect Professional, which offers a similar service for $375 per month. Octopz offers plenty of useful features and it works in a simple manner that does not require expertise.
