* RHUB has not conducted any accurate tests for speed comparison. The remarkable speed advantage for remote control is based on our user feedbacks and may vary for different users. You should do your tests based on your own Internet connection, your monitor setting and the typical applications you are using for the speed comparison.

RHUB TurboMeeting system architect is specifically designed for fast interactive meetings (attendees can present) with less than 25 attendees, which count for 99% meetings most users can experience. Most leading vendors design their systems for very large meetings and choose to sacrifice the interactive speed for smaller meetings. 

For a large meeting with over 25 attendees, it is impractical to have all attendees to present. You should use TurboMeeting's view-only function to invite most attendees and have only a few attendees to join your meeting interactively as the meeting panelists who can present. This hybrid mode of mixing view-only attendees with interactive attendees for the best user experience and performance is one of the unique functions of RHUB TurboMeeting.
