Commercial Real Estate Site Embraces Virtually Anywhere's Expertise

Pushing the envelope of traditional definitions of commercial real estate, The HighFlex Technology Center turned to Virtually Anywhere to bring their vision to life on the web. Offering short term leases, fully customizable office space, killer connectivity, and a energetic and forward-thinking environment, the High Flex complex offers everything for a growing technology startup to full blown enterprise.

"We've got a unique facility, that you have to see to believe." Darrell David, property founder and CEO continues, "We can't bring all our prospects out here to tour the facility, so we needed to accurately convey both the feel and the look of our space. Using a Virtually Anywhere Tour has surpassed our expectations in accomplishing this goal."

Visit the HighFlex site, which incidently, is completly authored by Virtually Anywhere Interactive. (We don't often have the honor of being the sole creator of a company's web presence, but for HighFlex, it just made sense to extend the look and feel of the online tours to the site itself!)

Healthcare Industry Keeping Pace with 360 Degree Imaging Technology

The Healthcare Market is booming, and with new facilities opening every month throughout the country, competition among providers has become an important part of the industry. Virtually Anywhere has worked with Healthcare facilities from the very start, providing potential consumers with high quality views of the latest trends in assisted living facilities, extended care programs, children's heath centers, and traditional hospitals.

"What we hear consistently from our clients, is that the healthcare business is driven first and foremost by the quality of its people," notes Virtually Anywhere Founder Carrington Weems. "but closely following that in importance is the technology they use to serve their patients. Virtually Anywhere Tours are unique in addressing the need to introduce patients and prospective patients to the staff and amenities of a facility, before an on-site visit. Our tour interface accurately conveys the physical layout and design of a healthcare facility, showing vital care areas, specific technology, and patient areas. But most importantly, we excel in giving our images life - by including hard-working teams of doctors, nurses, technicians and administrative staff within each of our panoramic images, making them come alive with motion and activity."

Complete 360 degree interactive tours combined with generous use of hotspots detailing specific equipment, unique features, and the latest technology in medical devices, give patients a unique "been there" view of the hospital. Virtually Anywhere's tour interface allows patients and family members to view parts of the hospital they could never see in person. Combine that with the benefit of administrators using the tour to put incoming patients at ease with areas specific to that patients' individual needs, and you've got a powerful, cost-effective, and extremely useful tool.

+ 08 ABOUT VA

Virtually Anywhere Interactive creates a very unique form of sales presentation that can be used in any industry where location or environment is an important aspect of the sales process. Whether it is a tour for a healthcare facility, a new member orientation tour for a large church, an offline sales presentation for a manufacturing plant, or even a sports team wanting to show their facilities online for player recruiting, or ticket sales, our individualized approach can meet all needs. We regularly work for clients all over the country and are prepared to go anywhere.

Unlike other “virtual tour” companies that rely on the gee whiz factor of a few 360 degree photos, we believe that one of the most important aspects of a presentation is in the interface design -- how you use the tour. With this in mind, VA produces the most intuitive, streamlined, and user friendly presentations in our industry. We regularly tailor our client’s presentations to their precise needs, whether it be a self guided tour for the web, a scripted tour for a boardroom presentation, or creating an interactive story told via interaction through an immersive environment.

Subtle differences are what we excel in.

Organize Precious Vacation Photos with Increasingly Popular Photo CD's

Ok, so you've got pictures and negatives scattered around the house. Summer's coming to an end, and they will most likely end up in a drawer or closet, hidden away, never to be seen again. Virtually Anywhere suggests organizing your photos using photo CD's -- they are now easily available at most photo processors, grocery stores, and drugs stores, and are perfect for both Windows and Macintosh users.

We've been archiving both traditional and digital photos for years on CD's, and the Photo CD format now widely available is a great way to keep your photos organized, and easily available for online sharing, emails, and digital photo albums. Just gather up those processed rolls of film, and take them to your nearest photo lab or processing counter. The process usually takes only a few days, and you'll get back cross platform CD's with all your pictures, and cool software for viewing and sharing. Try it, and keep those memories organized!

Take a quick tour of the Kodak Picture CD and learn about using digital archiving for your snapshots.

Disclaimer - Virtually Anywhere Interactive has no affiliation with Kodak or the Kodak Picture CD system.
