Microsoft Live Meeting

Microsoft Live Meeting is a commercial subscription-based web conferencing service operated by Microsoft as a part of their Office Live package. Microsoft Live Meeting includes software that is installed on client PCs, and uses a central server for all clients to connect to. Currently, those servers are under the control of Microsoft, however, Microsoft also produces Office Communications Server which is an enterprise conferencing server product.

Microsoft Live Meeting is a separate piece of software which is installed on a user's PC (Windows Based Meeting Console). The software is available for free download from the Microsoft website. There is also a Java based console which has antecedent release functionality. This also operates in Mac and Solaris environments. Microsoft recently announced a Microsoft Office Live Meeting 2007, which Microsoft deems a "complete event management solution".
