The freshly launched v36 of Pexip’s Infinity platform is a meeting experience upgrade for highly regulated organizations that prioritize control, privacy, and seamless functionality. This release delivers new capabilities for Pexip Secure Meetings customers, including participant pinning, modernized meeting notifications, and fully supported breakout rooms, along with improvements to Pexip Connect for Teams Rooms.
Modernizing the user experience for secure meetings
In response to growing demand from existing customers and Poly customers transitioning to PrivateConnect powered by Pexip, this release includes several updates:
- Notification improvements: Meeting notifications are now more user-friendly, providing essential prompts and alerts to keep users informed without interrupting the flow of the meeting. The updated meeting layout is designed for simplicity, making the experience feel intuitive and visually streamlined.
- Participant pinning: Now available, this admin function allows you to pin specific participants in the meeting layout, keeping the focus on key speakers and creating a more personalized viewing experience.
- Breakout rooms: Breakout rooms are fully supported, giving participants the flexibility to collaborate in smaller groups before reconvening in the main meeting.
Additional new features further improve the secure meeting experience.
- Single Sign On (SSO) authentication without pop-ups: For even greater convenience, when using the web client, you can now authenticate via SSO without needing to navigate to a separate pop-up window, making the login process more streamlined and secure.
- Enhanced admin controls: New policy options and controls empower administrators to better manage meetings and user access, providing organizations with added layers of security and customization.
Enhancements for Connect for Teams Rooms and more
Pexip’s integration with Microsoft Teams also benefits from the latest v36 update, supporting a seamless and cohesive experience for Connect for Teams Rooms customers. For instance, Pexip meeting hosts can admit a Teams Room into a locked Pexip conference from their Connect app, dual screens are automatically detected in Teams Rooms, and in-lobby notifications are more prominent.
Joining meetings from the browser just got better
Pexip v36 updates the latest version of our browser-based video calling application (Connect Webapp3), delivering enhanced security and an improved user experience. Key updates include a new ‘participant authentication’ indicator, allowing users to identify who has joined meetings via Single Sign-On (SSO). The ‘mute’ functionality has also been refined to make it easier to distinguish between participants who are self-muted and those muted by the host. Hosts now have greater control, with the ability to decide if guests can unmute themselves. Additionally, meeting guests will receive notifications when unmuted, with the option to remain muted. These updates provide greater control and reinforce the security of our video calling web application.
Built for regulated industries
As a fully self-hosted platform, Pexip Infinity v36 offers a unique value proposition for IT, AV, and UC administrators in highly regulated sectors, such as finance, healthcare, and government, who prioritize control, privacy, and the ability to customize their environment.
