this form of communication increases because it’s much quicker and more
convenient. Because of this it’s a very cost effective measure for reducing
inefficiencies and increasing overall output. This can mean you may need to
scale up your total video conferencing capacity sooner that you might expect,
so it’s advisable to take this factor into account when deciding on your
requirements.

video conferencing devices you will need to be able to connect to, or support.

ability to easily link your video conferencing to your customer’s, patients,
students or suppliers?
