How to choose an interpretation platform for your direct sales company?

Preparation is key to a successful meeting – whether you’re organizing a training session, product trade show, or seminar. We know this first-hand since we have hosted over 42,000 online, on-site, and hybrid events with remote simultaneous interpretation (RSI). And our client range goes all the way from direct sales companies to governmental institutions.

If your event involves a multilingual audience, choosing the right RSI solution for your event can become tricky. On top of many preparation tasks, you also have to consider the budget, interpreters, hardware integration, and technical support. 

Are you wondering what you should consider when choosing the right RSI solution for your needs? Bear with us as we give you key points to ensure a seamless event experience!

Points to consider when choosing RSI

Knowing that you will have the best professional interpreters in the market or that your meetings will have technical support is nice, but what about the platform's reliability? Is it flexible enough for your needs? How much control will you have over event management and the flow of the meetings? These are some of the questions that we'll help you answer.

We've prepared a few key points to consider when choosing a remote simultaneous interpretation platform for your company. So, let's dive right in!

Handy features

Having the right tools is crucial for a seamless event experience. However, you might be wondering if having remote simultaneous interpretation will get in the way of having additional features? Not at all! Just make sure you choose the right RSI platform for your needs.

For example, Interactio is a remote multilingual meeting solution that does it all. Having in-person sales meetings, hybrid conferences, or online seminars with community members – we’ve got you covered! And did we mention that we integrate Interactio with your favorite video-conferencing apps such as Zoom, Webex, and Microsoft Teams?

With RSI platforms, you no longer have to rely on traditional interpretation practices. Our technology allows the audience to connect to interpretation via a dedicated app on their phones. Just download the Interactio app, log in through your phone, and choose a language. This way, you can enjoy crisp-clear audio from the comfort of your phone.

And let’s not forget that at Interactio, we’ll make sure to send you streaming analytics after the event. So, suppose you’re introducing new languages to your sales meeting. In that case, these statistics can help track the number of unique listeners, stream duration, etc.

Full control

If you want to have complete control over your meeting – that’s not a problem! RSI tools are made for that, with more possibilities than ever.

Interactio provides dedicated project management and the possibility to manage events independently. What does it mean for you? You are the one who is making choices: about your event setup, location, look, and technical support.

• You, as a moderator, have access to live and after-event statistics to monitor the success of your meetings.
• You know in real-time what your interpreters and participants are feeling via live chat functionality, and you can connect with technical support live if any issues arise.
• Our event managers guide you, consult you, and run pre-event tests. However, you can also manage your meetings independently, as many of our partners do.
• You can choose from an unlimited number of languages and qualified interpreters on our database. But if you want to bring in your interpreters – that’s not a problem! 

Complex setups and accessibility

Event preparation can be challenging, not to mention adding set-up for interpretation to the list. RSI solutions can help you out with that. How? 

For example, you can use Interactio in pair with hardware that works best for you, such as Televic, SIP, or other multi-conferencing equipment. And if you need our help, we can support your event either on-site or remotely. We're ready to come to your venue and provide tech set-up and full technical support in-person or remotely.

And let's not forget to mention that we've got you covered if you need customized training for your AV staff and interpreters! This way, you can become familiar with our platform and provide a seamless event experience to your multilingual community members.

Safe and compliant platform

When choosing an RSI solution for your next event, it’s crucial to consider the security standards. Of course, you might wonder, why do you need security measures when you have your sales conference all in one place? It might seem like the safest option, but it’s more complicated than that. 

With the involvement of technology and modern cybersecurity threats, physical and remote meetings alike need special attention to compliance and ensuring privacy. That’s why you should consider the safest option for your next event.

RSI platforms have the highest security standards and certifications, but the success rates speak for themselves. Having conquered a record of 120,000 attendees supported simultaneously, the Interactio platform has 0 identified incidents to date.

Wrapping up

When choosing an RSI platform for your company, don't just focus on individual features but look at the bigger picture. It's essential to get to know the solution, test it, and build trust with your RSI provider in the preparation stage. 

On-site and remote solutions are different, but it doesn't mean one is more reliable, flexible, or suitable for your needs than the other. In the end, it's all about knowing the format you choose for the event and testing it beforehand. We would love to chat about how we can make your event special!
