Original Challenges
RHO’s dynamic and empowering culture let employees pick their own conferencing and web sharing solutions over the years.
- A variety of different technologies couldn’t be managed or optimized for cost by the central IT team.
- Adoption was inhibited because employees were uncertain and didn’t want to have to train themselves on various platforms. Only a few employees were comfortable taking this kind of initiative.
Solution
- An evaluation of the most popular platforms that were already in use.
- A decision to go with WebEx because of flexible licensing and simple user interface.
- Implementation of Vyopta’s vAnalytics to track overall usage and efficacy of adoption and training campaigns.
“Working with Vyopta’s reporting made the transition to WebEx really easy. I have been using analytics for various IT projects for about 20 years, and the performance, reliability, and ease of use of Vyopta is second to none.”
