[civsa] StudentBridge - Virtual Campus Experience?

[Greiner, Ania]

We’ve used Georama. They were great to work with. Their functionality is really best for live streaming tours. We also used them for some live chats, but the audio quality wasn’t very good. That’s something I believe they are working on. You can view our past tours here: http://www.colum.edu/admissions/visit-us/live-tour.html

The nice thing is during the tour students can chat in real time with the tour guides. We had a difficult time getting viewers to participate, so often the tours fell flat. We have since stopped using Georama because of budget constraints and lack of participation, but I do recommend looking into them.

Lindsey,



Hi! I have a conference call with them too scheduled Jan. 26th. If you find out more information on them I'd love to hear too. I, as you, don't know much about them. Thanks!!

Hello CIVSA!

My supervisor signed me up for a conference call with StudentBridge (http://www.studentbridge.com<http://www.studentbridge.com/>) tomorrow. I am wondering if anyone has used them in the past or is currently using them now?

I know about YouVisit and VisitDays, but I don't much about this company.

Has anyone heard good, bad, or otherwise about them?  Any words of wisdom you could share would be much appreciated!
