Group Series, the only series for your work group.
Return on Investment
- Once pexip integrates Polycom/Skype this will be a big win for us due to the RPTouch integrating the "one - touch join". This will increase adoption of video greatly.
- Before the Group series with peripherals was implemented the cost of a video room was twice what it is today. Massive win.
- Due to provisioning and automated firmware the IT involvement has been greatly reduced. No longer is there a need for manual changes to individual endpoints.
Return on Investment
- We are able to more easily train associates to use the devices. They can operate them with minimal instruction and little oversight.
Return on Investment
- Reduce travel
- Increase time on task
- Increased communication and understanding vs. phone only

Solid Performing A/V Conference Room System
Return on Investment
- Managing remote employees is now much easier.
Return on Investment
- We have been able to increase productivity by spending less time navigating through a phone directory to call someone, and to find out if and when they are available.
- We can determine if someone is available through the notifications on the phone screen itself or use the instant messaging function, which are both linked to our Outlook calendars.
- We are able to more quickly connect our students to resources and other professionals on campus by being able to anticipate who is available to meet with them or speak with them over the phone, before even having to make a call.
Return on Investment
- Increase user ability to schedule rooms
- Increase users' ability to join calls without IT assistance
- Impress guests with capabilities
Return on Investment
- System was never put in with a hard ROI
- Hope is to reduce travel costs if people get comfortable with it
- Will reduce external costs of external hosted products used (will mandate)

Still Powerful, but losing relevence slowly
Return on Investment
- The introduction of video at the firm has, over time, significantly reduced travel cost.
- The added value of Polycom is getting harder and harder to justify in most situations anymore. When low cost software video is delivering such great quality...it is hard to justify tripling the cost of a small room to add Polycom.
Return on Investment
- Not much in terms of ROI, but we have replaced aging lifesize solutions
- Works great with BlueJeans
- Has a wide variety of options to standardize on a single set of hardware for all types of video rooms
Return on Investment
- Huge savings on travel expenses.
- Increased collaborations and productivity.
- Good results have caused more purchases of video equipment.
Return on Investment
- TBD
- Increased accessbility for video meetings

Review from an VC Engineer who uses Polycom Equipment Daily
Return on Investment
- Cost reduction of traveling.
- Real time presences from a remote location.
- Ability to have people on Video instead of having them in person when inconvenient.
Return on Investment
- Less jitter/tiling than other systems.
- Reduces travel expenses
- Hardwired means that it is only in those locations that it is able to be used.
