System setup and automation
VQ Conference Manager accelerates and de-risks setup of Cisco Meeting Server and your wider conferencing service. It manages complex API command sequences and allows for automated, scheduled user provisioning via Active Directory/LDAP integration.

Defense-grade security
Comprehensive safeguards
To support secure, private meetings at scale, VQ Conference Manager can be used in self-hosted and air-gapped environments.
It includes:
- User identity management via Active Directory/LDAP integration
- Single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA) via SAML 2.0 systems
- Role-based access control
- Multi-tenancy
Meeting protections
VQ Conference Manager includes a range of controls to keep meetings private.
These include granular permissions settings, passcode protection, limited-duration meeting spaces, waiting lobbies, and other rules.
These safeguards are part of our Meeting Services product.
FIPS compliant & DISA validated
Rest easy, knowing your conferencing service is built on a FIPS-compliant platform, and has been independently validated by the US Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC). VQ Conference Manager is on the US Department of Defense Information Network (DoDIN) Approved Products List (APL).
Virtual appliance for ease of installation
VQ Conference Manager comes as a virtual appliance. Install or upgrade via drag-and-drop, or using a playbook.
Run it on your existing VMware infrastructure, or talk to us if you need additional hardware.
High-availability
Boost resilience with two-node implementations for Meeting Services, Metro, and Analytics, with automatic failover.
Three-node high-availability is coming soon.

API
