WebCamMax is a free program that comes with Windows that allows for real-time video conferencing. It allows for wireless video on the web and the ability to make phone calls over the Internet. However, there are some problems with the product. First, the free version only allows for 30 minutes of video. Second, the software is limited to four users. Third, there is a one-time payment of $39.95 for the actual product. This is just another reason to make sure you're getting a legitimate copy of this software before you spend any money.
The second problem is that the software does not come with any help files. If you go into the "Help" section of the application, it doesn't explain the system requirements, nor does it show you how to upgrade the software to use the full program. If you're not familiar with computer programming, this may be a problem. It may mean you'll have to purchase additional licenses or a copy of this software to use it. Otherwise, it's an okay application, but you won't get any kind of support.
The third problem is that the downloadable software is also limited to four users. Because this is one of the largest uses of the software, I think this limitation is really unnecessary. However, if you plan on using it for very large conferences, then it may be a good idea to try out the free version first. If you do decide to buy the full version, then you may want to make sure you read reviews on different versions of the software and do your research on whether the particular version you want is good enough for your needs. That will prevent you from wasting your money.
