Step By Step Guide On How To Video Conference.

  • First you need to sign up for Nefsis which you have to download from the Nefsis website.

  • Once you have downloaded Nefsis you then need to install it onto your computer.
  • when you click the install button you need to install the active x control which allows you to download and use the programme.

·        Once you have installed Nefsis you can then use it to start video conferencing.

·        To start a video conference you need to add the address of the person who you want to video conference with.







Disadvantages and Advantages

The advantages of the Nefsis programme is that you can have a
Interview or video conference across the world with many people.
Another advantage of using the Nefsis programme is you can have a microphone and a webcam inserted in the computer so you can speak, hear and see the person who you are speaking with.  The Nefsis programme can support multiple microphones and webcams and can support up to twenty four people at once in one conference room.

The disadvantages of using the Nefsis Programme are that the programme is a very expensive and complex programme to use, there competitive programmes like skype which are free programmes another disadvantage of the programme is that they may need more than twenty four people in a conference at one time.

Safety Measures
Nefsis has very good security, the website has a secure socket layer in which protects the website from different viruses, I know this because the ‘http’ before the web address has a‘s’ before.  The other way to make sure the website is safe is to have a look for a padlock on the right hand side of the web address bar which also indicates that the website is secure.

Software Sharing
You can share different types of software and media which, is then visible to all the people who are in you video conference room.  To share the different types of media you need to click the buttons which say share, once you have done that you then choose the file in which you want the other people to view and the you click insert and the file will be there visible too all the people who are in the video conference room.
