      Ashburn, virginia – June 2nd, 2010– Telepresence Options launches the on-line Telepresence and Videoconferencing Catalog @ www.TelepresenceCatalog.com


      Telepresence Options
      , the #1 website following telepresence and effective visual collaboration has launched the world’s most comprehensive on-line catalog of telepresence, videoconferencing, and unified communications solutions at www.TelepresenceCatalog.com.

      The new Telepresence and Videoconferencing Catalog breaks out technology solutions for visual collaboration into a variety of categories: Telepresence Stage and Podium Systems, Group Systems, Large Group Systems, Small Group Systems, Executive Systems, Telemedicine & Healthcare TP, Video Conference Systems, Video Network Infrastructure, Cameras and Codecs, Managed Services Provider, Inter-Networking Provider, TP and VC Exchange Services, Resellers and Integrators, Consultants, Recording, Streaming, and Archiving, Video Network Management, Public Telepresence and VC Rooms, Peripherals and Accessories, Telepresence Robotics, Virtual Reality CAVESs, Unified Communications, Desktop Conferencing, Webconferencing and Virtual Collaboration, Display Technologies, Publications, Conferences and Events.

      Telepresence Options’ Publisher, Howard S. Lichtman explains the rationale for the new Catalog: “We are constantly amazed at how many sophisticated organizations are only familiar with a small handful of telepresence, UC, and visual collaboration offerings.  We wanted to create an on-line marketplace where buyers have the broadest view of their options including solutions that they didn’t know existed.

      For companies that are taking their visual collaboration solutions to-market we wanted to create a cost-effective targeted way to reach those interested at the optimum time: When they are reaching their telepresence and unified communications options!”

      The new Catalog is a stand-alone website that is already rising rapidly in the search engine rankings.  The site is promoted by www.TelepresenceOptions.com which has seen its traffic double since 2009.  The new website will also be promoted through the Telepresence Options Telegraph newsletter, the Human Productivity Lab’s website, Telepresence Industry Professionals, and banner ad and search engine advertising on other websites.
