Features

ooVoo allowed users to communicate through free messaging, voice, and video chat. ooVoo video conferencing technology can have HD video and audio calls with up to twelve participants simultaneously and desktop sharing.

History

ooVoo was founded in 2006 by Philippe Schwartz and Ohio entrepreneur Clay Mathile[3] based on technology developed at Arel Communications and Software (formerly NASDAQ:ARLCF). Arel was founded in 1982 and specializes in remote e-learning collaboration application software.[4] On March 13, 2006, Arel Communications was taken private by its current owners and relaunched as ooVoo.[5][6]

In June 2007, ooVoo for Microsoft Windows launched, with a video chat feature.[7] In February 2008, video call recording and phone calling were introduced.[8] In May 2008, ooVoo for Apple's OS X launched, creating cross-platform capabilities for video chat.[9] In February 2009, ooVoo 2.0 launched and featured browser-based video chat rooms and video chat through a web link with no download required. An open API was launched with version 2.0, allowing developers to build customized applications and widgets.[10] In May 2009, ooVoo introduced the first air-to-ground three-way video conversation. ooVoo version 2.2 was launched in July 2009, and introduced business plans geared for multiple seats and desktop sharing. New pay-as-you-go options and international phone calling were also introduced.[11]

In January 2010, ooVoo released its app for Android mobile devices.[12]

On 2 June 2011, ooVoo launched its social video chat service on Apple's iPhone (and other iOS devices), making its free HD Video chat service cross platforms, including: PC, Mac, Android and iPhone.[13][14]

On July 22, 2013, ooVoo released a Software Development Kit (SDK), allowing other applications to leverage its video chat technology (current apps leveraging the ooVoo SDK: Flinch, Heystax).[15]

On June 10, 2014, ooVoo released its app for Windows Phone devices.[16]

On September 9, 2014, ooVoo released its Video SDK for WebRTC.[17]

On November 25, 2017, ooVoo announced via Twitter that it would be shutting down,[2] citing a lack of profit as the reason.[18]
