Video Conferencing (Video Telepresence)

The adoption of video conferencing solutions and video conferencing equipment as a tool to promote business and learning has seen a massive growth due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Using video conferencing equipment or unified communications is fast becoming second nature to the office worker and student alike. The use of technology has enabled this to happen quickly and effectively, from any location, across any platform and from virtually any device.

The adoption of technology has been so rapid that it has been hard to control. Now more than ever, it is important to take stock of inventory and ensure that the tools employed by your organisation are appropriate, secure and fit for purpose. With so many organisations working in a hybrid manner with a mixture of on-site and remote staff, never before has technology and video conferencing solutions been so crucial to the working environment.

Video conferencing is now centred around the Unified Communications platform; Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Cisco Webex or Google Meet to name a few. Manufacturers have produced technology optimised to work with specific platforms and so making the correct choice has never been more important.

Workflow is another major factor and can determine the type of solution required. With a move to a more hybrid or flexible work methodology, the technology has to be flexible enough to accommodate. This can determine the environment, whether in a traditional room, huddle space or home office, the technology will be different.
