What’s new at VQ?

VQCM 3.9 is here, but what does that mean?
We’re excited to have recently released VQ Conference Manager 3.9. Below are some highlights:
- One-Button-To-Push a quick and straightforward way of scheduling and joining meetings.
- Pane Placement and layout management gives operators precise control over meeting layouts, ensuring each participant is right where they need to be.

VQCM is constantly evolving, and 3.9 is a big leap forward for our users. We’re always looking ahead to the future and with our next version we plan to implement new Directory Services and much, much more.

Inside VQ

A word from Mike Horsley
VQ Communications CEO, Mike Horsley, reflects on an energetic few months, as well as the road ahead:
“Sometimes it feels like VQ is a bit like a swan swimming through water; above the water, somebody looking on sees a serene bird effortlessly gliding across the water. Under the surface, the Swan’s legs are going gangbusters.
2021 was a bit like that in the legs department. We managed to release 3.7 and 3.8 and get all the preparation work done for 3.9 (released Jan 2022). Behind the scenes, some really interesting and long running activities have been drawing towards conclusion.”
