How Cisco Deploys Video Telephony to Employee Desktops

Tags:
video conferencing

Overview Communicating with colleagues who are working in other locations is a daily activity for Cisco employees. Although phone calls, e-mails, and instant messaging are used regularly, these methods cannot replicate the nuances of a face-to-face interaction. To improve the communication effectiveness, Cisco IT deployed Cisco Unified Video Advantage in the company's major offices. This solution improves employee productivity, provides a low-cost method for person-to-person videoconferencing, is easy to use, and requires minimal technical support. Cisco enterprise customers can draw on Cisco IT's real-world experience in this area to help support similar enterprise deployments.
