• Polycom’s market leading communications and collaboration solutions enable people to connect anytime, anyplace and with any device in a virtual experience as natural as being there.

    The continued demand for our solutions is the result of a collision of economic, environmental and technical factors. Globalization led to the rise of outsourcing, strategic partnering and the mobile workforce. Concurrently, there is economic uncertainty, travel is increasingly inconvenient and costly, and global warming is threatening our planet. The solution to the communications barriers raised by the first two factors are the bandwidth-rich IP networks that now enable reliable, high definition voice and video communications from the desktop and conference room to the telepresence suite, reducing the necessity for travel and satisfying the new requirement for clean technology.

    The ability to improve productivity, drive higher efficiencies, and reduce unnecessary costs across the enterprise is at the heart of these global market dynamics. For these reasons, IP-based collaboration technology is once again a top-10 budget priority for the third year in a row[1]. Increasingly, CIOs and other operating executives are tapping into our powerful platform to enable improved top and bottom line performance.

    With the globalization of the enterprise, green mandates in many countries, and travel costs increasing sharply, the need for Polycom collaboration technology has never been clearer.
