Pexip came into being by the merger of two companies – 2012’s Pexip, a video infrastructure specialist and 2011’s Videxio, a cloud video service provider. Both companies were started by industry veterans who decided to use their vast video conferencing experience to challenge the traditional roadblocks in video conferencing (cost, use, management, and scale).
Pexip has both self-hosted and as-a-service deployment options, built on its flagship Infinity technology. According to the company’s official stance: while technology and workplace habits have come a long way over the years, connectivity and collaboration across locations remain a key issue. Pexip seeks to solve this through best-in-class interoperability including Microsoft Teams, Skype for Business, and Google Hangouts. Pexip provides a state-of-the-art meeting and calling service as well as video system device registration.

Why Pexip Makes a Difference
Before we dig out Pexip’s USP, let’s push back a little and review what a VMR really is. In its simplest sense, a VMR offers one, single digital space for participants to talk to each other over secure and reliable HD-quality video meetings. You can invite internal and external guests and use the VMR for as many meeting rooms as you need. It can be activated as a shared team resource or a personal VMR, or even a one-time meeting room link.
The best thing about Pexip is that it offers two licensing options:
