Buyers Guide 2019 – Polycom Collaborative Solutions for Today & Future
Traditional offices and meeting rooms are giving way to open team and mobile spaces, as well as huddle rooms, all of which present challenges for effective collaboration in geographically distributed organizations. Additionally, today’s workers were raised on technology and expect it to be as natural and pleasant as the air they breathe. How quickly and effectively organizations adapt to these expectations and new ways of working is key to sustaining a competitive advantage. Technology trends like mobility, the cloud, big data, social media, and consumerization are removing the many barriers that once prevented effective workforce collaboration within organizations across the globe. Polycom can help you transform the way you and your teams work and compete more effectively with intuitive collaboration tools that fit with the way your teams work, not the other way around.
