Audio quality
Frequency response of 0-20kHz, sampling rate of 48kHz*, low latency time and no loss of synchronization with video.
Audio filters such as audio compressor and auto volume are disabled**.
This means you can hear timbres and dynamics properly and the decay of sounds without abrupt interruptions.
* with a bitrate of 512Kbps
** The echo filter can also be deactivated when using headphones.
Internet Connection
The manual management of the video quality allows you to save data traffic and consequently to transmit the audio always with the best possible quality.
uwMeeting allows you to choose 4 possible video resolutions (from 480x320, 720x480, 1280x720 and 1920x1280 Full HD) and 4 video frequencies (from 1, 7, 15, 30 fps).
The minimum connection required to use uwMeeting is 5 Mbit/s download and 1 Mbit/s upload.
To get the best video results it would be necessary to have a connection with 15 Mbit/s download and 3 Mbit/s upload.
Ease of use
No application to install because uwMeeting is a web-application.
No control panel to search for changes, because uwMeeting is set from the beginning to be able to listen in the best possible quality.
If the conditions allow it is possible to modify some parameters to further improve some services.

Pre-paid packages & licenses
In relation to the number of hours of monthly lessons that a private teacher or an institution must have, we present 2 ways to use the services of uwMeeting and 2 ways of payment and costs.
For private teachers and institutions with a low number of hours of lessons is indicated the subscription of services through the purchase of pre-paid packages, which also provide access to the most advanced version of the management software and without additional costs of updating.
For institutions that have a significant number of monthly hours of classes to be taught, the purchase of licenses is indicated, which, for a one-time cost to install and start up the services, will achieve an 80% reduction in management costs.
