Quick Pitch: InnerPass is a Skype Extra that adds Persistence to Web Meetings to help organize and coordinate ongoing collaborative projects.
Genius Idea::Skype is a great tool for communication between computers and even to iPhones for free. Video calls and cheap international calls are just some of its many features. For businesses, however, they need more than just Skype to do business cross-country: file sharing, contact sharing, quick conference calls, and more are also important to conducting business online. This is the void that InnerPass looks to fill.
InnerPass is a Skype add-on, so it is desktop software. Once installed, it provides a simple interface for businesses to easily collaborate and share information and files, as well as set up video conferences.
Here is a quick overview of InnerPass's most useful features:
Virtual Meeting Rooms: These rooms make it simple to share links, files, and start up conference calls with anyone within the room.
Contact Management: InnerPass has its own contact list system, as well as the ability to import Skype contacts. This makes it useful for separating business contacts from personal contacts, as well as sharing them between team members.
Screen Sharing: This is a wonderful tool for presenting live demos or presentations. It's simple to use because of its integration with the virtual meeting rooms.
InnerPass is most useful for small or medium sized businesses that have a lot of traveling, presenting, or telecommuting built in. These companies rely on fast communication and technology that helps share information quickly. In that regard, InnerPass succeeds, adding functionality to Skype that makes it worth considering. InnerPass is not free, although it offers a free trial. Like many business apps today, it charges subscription fees, starting at $4.95/mo.
