The Four Ways to Save Video Conferencing
It’s a killer app, but if your organization fails to take four key factors into account, your efforts could be dead on arrival.
Traverse City, MI, July 29, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Appia Communications has released a new guide stressing four critical factors that companies and organizations must consider before implementing video communication.
The benefits of video communication are well documented. If the price is right, users enjoy a rapid return on their investment in both hard and soft cost savings, from reduced travel and more productive employees to reduced carbon emissions.
Once only feasible for the largest global corporations, today’s managed video services have extended these benefits to small and midsize organizations, combining flexibility and low cost with business-quality video, audio, and collaboration tools.
But according to Appia, the benefits of video communication won’t be realized by any organization until four key factors are taken into account.
“Simply put, if the experience is poor, people will not use it,” said Victor von Schlegell, Appia’s president. “When that happens — and it all too often does — the investment made in video is wasted and, more importantly, its benefits are not realized.”
