Moving company overseas, any software to help with online communication like Video & live Screen casting for online meetings.

I'm moving out of the UK in a few months, got rid of the staff and office to save money. Moving to Spain...

I have a few concerns regarding communication. Anyone know any professional software to ensure great communication for both me and my customers.

Phone numbers:
All going into Skype Pro

Video conferencing:
Video chat in Skype seems very clear for 1 to 1 video meetings. Anything else?

Screen casting live:
Im a designer, would like to show customers in real time if we are talking about tweaking a design. So far VNC, give them access to my screen when im working.

Anyone suggest anything else or better software. Will pay if needed as it needs to be professional.

Oh yeah, im on a Mac.

we use webtrain and find it pretty good. Has quite a few good features. Internet Explorer based though.

For doing design reviews, try ConceptShare. For meetings, try one of the webcasting standbys, WebEx. I don't think Microsoft LiveMeeting has very good Mac support. Yugma apparently has good Mac support but I have never used it.

Be sure to look into Adobe Connect, there is not much it can't do.

Take a look at WebEx. They offer a free trial so you can see if it would fit your needs.
