A new survey from Polycom reveals how businesses are increasingly using video to defy distance.
The survey of 1,200 executives and decision makers revealed that almost all the respondents believe video conferencing improves productivity within organisations.
More than three-quarters of respondents are now using video conferencing at work and they predict that in just three years time, it will be the most preferred method of communication for office workers. Over a third (39%) are already using or would like to use mobile devices for video calls at work.
The rise in personal video is helping drive the trend, with 83% of respondents now making video calls at home – and almost half using it at least once a week.
