RingHuseby is compatible with virtually any device (smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktops).  You can also connect a traditional video conferencing unit to a RingHuseby event.  HusebyConnect, requires a laptop or desktop computer.

#2 Platform Setup

The setup, or your view, varies depending on the platform as well as the options you choose.  With RingHuseby, the video, exhibit file management, and live real-time are all in separate windows.

#5 Exhibit Annotations

With HusebyConnect, we created a set of robust annotation tools for you.  As you mark and annotate your exhibits you can save the file to the final exhibit.  Those exhibits are then stored in your portal for your records.

When you use RingHuseby, you do have the option to present and make annotations to your exhibit.  The difference is your annotations are not able to be saved to the final exhibit unless you use the screen capture tool. 

#6 Previously Marked Exhibits

Previously marked exhibits are available in both platforms!  Previously marked exhibits can be accessed within the integrated exhibit presentation module on your HusebyConnect platform.  With RingHuseby, your previously marked exhibits can be made available using Huseby FileShare.  To learn more about Huseby FileShare, click here.

Are You Picking the Right Remote Deposition Platform?

Depositions do not come in a “one-size fits all” package, and neither should your remote platform.  Reliable remote deposition solutions are important to you. We provide you with different choices and allow for the flexibility to choose your remote deposition platform based on your case needs.  

When choosing a remote deposition platform, you want to be sure it’s the right choice for you.  After all, you want everything to go as smoothly as possible. 

Here are a few things to consider ensuring your depositions go smoothly: 

Do you want the ability to do more than just screen share exhibits? 

There are so many different factors that go into deciding how to utilize your exhibits.  Both of Huseby’s platforms allow you to not only present new exhibits, but also hand opposing counsel and the deponent a courtesy copy and access previously marked exhibits with ease.

If you prefer having a few more “bells and whistles” at your fingertips, using HusebyConnect (wondering what is HusebyConnect?  No worries click here to learn more.), exhibits can be annotated, stamped confidential and marked with an exhibit sticker.

If you want to track chain-of-custody of your electronic exhibits, RingHuseby provides email alerts when a document has been accessed and downloaded. These are just a few ways Huseby’s platforms take remote exhibit presentation to the next level.

Do you have the ability and opportunity to attend a demo or prep session?

Attending a demo gives you the ability to view all options and match the remote deposition platform with your case needs. Once you have selected your preferred platform, you can schedule a prep session for your team to personally explore the platform and practice presenting exhibits.

 If you are unable to attend a demo or prep session, no worries, you have full access to step-by-step videos and guides in your Remote Deposition Resource Library by visiting our Remote Depositions webpage.

Is opposing counsel hesitant to agree to a remote deposition?

 Huseby offers multiple platforms to provide you options to choose the platform that is right for your case and is agreed upon across all parties. Your depositions don’t come in a “one size fits all” package, and neither should your remote platform.

A live Huseby expert technician will be available prior to the start and throughout your deposition for both technical support and to answer any general questions that may arise. Their role is to ensure your event runs smoothly. With multiple platform options and expert technical support, more case parties choose Huseby.

Are the parties involved, including the deponent, tech-savvy? 

While HusebyConnect provides more “bells and whistles”, RingHuseby is a great option for those looking for a simpler, more straightforward platform that is easy to navigate on any device, including iPad/tablets and smart phones. Joining the deposition is simple.

An email invitation with a password-protected direct link to web conference will be sent to all parties including the deponent for easy access. A live Huseby expert technician will be available to assist during log-in and throughout the deposition for those who require technical support.

Is live support during your deposition important to you? 

Live support is the cornerstone of a successful remote deposition experience. When utilizing either of Huseby’s signature platforms, RingHuseby and HusebyConnect, an expert technician will be with you every step of the way to ensure you have a smooth and positive experience.  

We provide an in-house technician for your support with every remote deposition platform provided by Huseby.  These great team members have been trained and are there for you.  Feel free to ask them for help at any time.  Check out Huseby Remote Deposition Technician video to learn more.
