  • (1888PressRelease) March 24, 2011 - Mikogo, the free and easy-to-use desktop sharing solution for web conferencing and remote support, has revamped its software and released Version 4.0 as an open beta release. With a brand new and innovative user interface, Mikogo 4.0 encompasses a broad range of new features to meet the ever-increasing demand for its services in the online collaboration market. Mikogo has released the open beta for everyone to use - from freelancers, SMBs to large enterprises - and has simplified the use of its software even further to encourage more businesses to adopt the use of web conferencing software.

    Mikogo's software has always been praised for simplicity and ease of use - a core trait that has been enhanced further in the design and development of Version 4.0. The new software boasts a brand-new user interface in the form of a small panel on the screen of the user. The advantage is that the interface drawers can be expanded and retracted as the user accesses different features. This keeps the panel to a minimal size, keeping the presentation space as clear as possible, and maintains the unobtrusive feel of Mikogo. Furthermore to assist first-time users, help tips are incorporated into the interface, which can again be easily closed when the user is familiar with the software.

    In addition to the innovative user interface, Mikogo 4.0 has incorporated a wide range of new features, some of the most notable being the following: a chat function, dual-monitor support, profile manager, participant list, participant emoticons, and internationalization with the software available in multiple languages.

    "While building a new-look interface and adding further features, our main aim was to continue providing an innovative and easy-to-use platform that can be used by anyone in a range of workplaces and industries," explains Mark Zondler, Mikogo's Managing Director and Co-Founder. "The new interface is user-friendly and encourages users to click through the software while help tips point them in the right direction. The idea behind this is for the interface itself to train the user."

    And Mikogo is not stopping here. While the web conferencing world tests out Version 4.0, Mikogo's development team are working on further functionality including apps for the iPad, iPhone, and Android phones, a Linux version, company customization and branding, and releasing the software in even further languages - all to be released this year.

    The open beta release of Mikogo 4.0 is available as a free download from: www.mikogo.com/beta/
