How it’s used, where it’s used, by whom and for what – and its use as an enterprise productivity tool is also growing rapidly, says a new survey of almost 5,000 enterprise video end-users around the world. Wainhouse Research, underwritten by Polycom, surveyed 4,737 end-users of video conferencing systems. The survey respondents represent all global regions, with 63% from North America, 27% from Asia/Pacific, 9% from EMEA, and 1% from Latin America. All company sizes are represented, from small businesses with 1-49 employees (20% of respondents) to very large companies with more than 10,000 employees (17%) and all points in-between. Vertical industries are also well represented.
The survey results, published under the name “End-User Survey: The ‘Real’ Benefits of Video,” reveal some notable insights into the business benefits of video conferencing, deployment trends, use cases, adoption and insights for future growth.
