Thermal Angel® Blood Warmer Company, Estill Medical
Technologies,
Selects Nefsis® Web & Video Conferencing
for Online Product Demonstrations and New Customer Expansion
Nefsis customers can now play HD media
files during their online
meetings, while interacting with
each other over VoIP and video conferencing
San Diego, California — September 1, 2009 — Nefsis
announced today that the manufacturer of the Thermal Angel blood warming
medical device, Estill Medical Technologies, selected and deployed Nefsis
web and video conferencing for online product demonstrations and new
customer development. Faced with growing product demand, Estill elected
to use online video conferencing as a new method to provide sales and
support services to new customers in remote locations.
The Thermal Angel is a blood and IV fluid infusion warmer used to combat
fluid-induced hypothermia, a major problem during the Golden Hour for
all patients who have suffered trauma. This light-weight, completely
portable and self-contained device is field-proven in a wide variety of
settings, including hospitals, EMS, Flight Services, Search & Rescue,
and Military Field Medicine.
"We have a 21st century, life-saving product,
and we didn't want our customers to wait for last century's sales approach
to getting it out there," said Mr. Lopez, Estill Medical Technologies
President and CEO. Indeed, one overseas government customer
went to the extreme of chartering a jet to expedite initial delivery and training
for its military staff. "It's a testament to the product, but we needed a much
more cost-effective way of briefing interested parties, hosting Q&A
sessions, and delivering product demos," he added.
Nefsis was selected after the Estill team tested several conferencing
options. The team chose Nefsis, because it provided the best user
experience for remote Estill customers. In particular Nefsis allowed
Estill staff to control the size, on-screen placement and quality of the
video for all conferencing participants. "Nefsis
was head and shoulders above all the other solutions we considered,"
said Mr. Lopez.
Nefsis is an online service that uses cloud computing and widely
available PC video peripherals to simplify the video conferencing
process. Virtually any PC desktop can join a video conference, whether
located at boardrooms, line employee offices, or remote customer
locations. "The Thermal Angel application is an excellent example of
using Nefsis to expand sales and support services to new customers and
remote locations. It also highlights the reach of new video conferencing
technologies, from desktop, to boardroom, to virtually anywhere," said
Mr. Steven Peltier, Nefsis CEO.
