Helps organisations
HP SkyRoom, for example, will be a big help for an organisation that has architects operating from a number of locations in the country. Using the tool they can collaborate on a design even tough they are at different locations.
They can connect and discuss the design and make changes, if any. Since it allows participants the control of keyboard and mouse of the host computer, they can also incorporate changes in the design, which get saved automatically in the main server. With such access control, the presentation can be modified and experimented with.
This has great significance in industries and offices working in an environment requiring continuous collaboration. The software product, priced at Rs 8,400, comes with a lifetime license, company officials pointed out.
