eLearning Platform
Saba Centra’s virtual classroom software is primarily an online learning environment that enables students from around the globe to connect in cyberspace and interact in a multimedia rich virtual environment. Saba Centra extends Saba’s learning management platform to include real-time training and collaborative sessions—all from a single vendor. Seamless integration with Saba Learning and other enterprise systems, enables customers to maximize control over training objectives and activities, which will save them time and money while optimizing productivity on training administration.
Online Meeting Platform
Saba Centra for eMeetings helps people get together across the building or around the globe — live, in real time — to share knowledge and information. You have all the advantages of in-person meetings without the expense and hassle of getting to them. As a result, you’re able to have highly productive, secure meetings, product demos, and partner briefings all from the privacy of your office.
Saba Centra for eMeetings replicates the dynamic interaction of on-site meetings, using a rich set of online tools and capabilities. Features include integrated audio and video conferencing, application sharing with mark-up, PowerPoint slides with animation, real-time feedback, whiteboards, instant surveys, file transfer, and text chat.
Business Continuity Platform
Denial of access to your workplace due to security concerns or in response to pandemic flu precautions is a very real problem for some organizations. Particularly, if you are a school or some other organization offering courses, you face a serious dilemma if your students cannot come to your physical classroom. Even if you are not a school, the forced segregation of key personnel in different physical offices or in home quarantine makes traditional face to face meetings impossible.
Pantropic has encountered a growing number of customers approaching us to provide an online collaboration tool for business continuity purposes. The requirements can be for thousands of online users in the case of a university, or just a small handful of senior managers in case of emergency. If you have a similar need, please contact us.
