"Hi Tammy,happy 2012 for you and your family.It´s good to see you sharing here. Many thanks for all the valuable insights you gave us on LCO and for bridging it to the community here.I definitly feel better not being alone in writing long text…"

"Hello Will, it is very interesting for me to read more about what you discovered around Collaborate´s audio artifacts by using studio signal chain setups. Stability of total syllabic perceptability was one of the strongest selling points of…"

"The Post-session URL is a great feature available for individual configuration, if one has access to the server administration page. Large-scale customers having an SAS contract (or ELM coming soon) can change the URL themselves, while contracts…"

"Hey Tammy, thanks for the clarification. You can certainly sign me up for the "return of vOffice" petition! €2000 is a lot just to remove an exist page advert. so I'm going to start out with the free version and if things are…"

"Hi Will. From your use of three seater, I realized when I read your post that you really meant the vRoom. That is the free one. However, combining what you have asked here with what you have posted elsewhere, I thought I would jump in and help you…"

"Again, this is great feedback.  I can't guarantee that it will change the roadmap for Collaborate, but you're sure making a great case!  :)  There are configurations of Collaborate that allow you to establish the…"

"This is so frustrating! THERE IS NO OTHER SYSTEM that gives me as close to what I need as Collaborate. vClass offers a room with a capacity for 50 students...I don't need more than 5 -10 but I would gladly pay €2000 if I could customise…"

"So, I think your description is accurate, and it also probably would help to understand what LearnCentral was and how it started.  LearnCentral was more than a user community, it was actually an ambitious project created to bring together…"

"I am thinking that the bigger organization focus fits in with understanding the closure of LC. The large organizations usually get their upper level training staff trained by Collaborate trainers and then they take care of support and training…"

"It's been very interesting for me to watch the transitions that have taken place as Blackboard purchased Elluminate.  And I know that it is natural to watch the changes take place and assume the worst, not realizing the complexities of…"

"Hi, Will.  You ask good questions! Collaborate (and Elluminate), from my history with the companies (I was employed full time with Elluminate, and now am part-time with Collaborate), were really built for large-scale implementations rather than…"

"eLectra Live has some interesting licensing models. It gives more rungs in the ladder between price levels. We are maxing out our one room at the vClass level late last summer. I was actually mid-process ordering a vOffice room to handle our small…"

"I would not pay $500 for vOffice or vClass as it is too restrictive. I have been quoted €2000 for the basic vClass option and this would still mean not having my own Logo or brand color and every time a student would leave a session would…"

"Just out of curiosity, if the $500 level vOffice were still availble would that have made it a no-brainer, "jump in with two feet, 'let's go' solution? The reason I am asking is that I really feel that dropping the vOffice level…"

"I have done extensive testing and Blackboard Collaborate IS the best system out there for what I need. However the fees are crazy and I cannot justify the cost. Coursesites is a possible solution but again it's not desirable to have…"

"We are at the small organization level. Many, many entrepreneur instructors have come to me over the years and I have given free training to them to help them get started using Elluminate. The vOffice ran about $500 dollars a year which was a…"
