One of the many great business facilities at Carrwood Park is video conferencing. It has become an inseparable part of Carrwood’s state-of-the-art IT infrastructure, and is supported by the in-house IT team. Now, video conferencing may be something that you think your business doesn’t really need, and something you see no real tangible benefits in --- that’s where you’d be wrong.Let’s look at some of the benefits of video conferencing as a business tool:
1) It increases productivity
Video conferencing doesn’t just put talking heads on a screen. It actually allows for easier sharing of information, which in turn can help speed up the decision making process. Using video conferencing means all members of a team, wherever they are, can see all the same information live without any delays.
2) It can save you money
The financial benefits of video conferencing are certainly not as noticeable as the one for productivity, but they are obvious nonetheless. Bringing together people from all over the country or even the world means massive savings in travel costs
3) It gives the gift of time
If you or other members of your team have to frequently travel to attend meetings or presentations, then time will be an even more valuable commodity than usual. Video conferencing reduces the need for constant travel, and can relieve the burden on team members.
4) It strengthens the bonds that tie
As a business grows, so too does the range of locations team members will have to be based in. When team members are spread all over the country, working bonds can become weak, and the real sense of teamwork can suffer. With video conferencing, all team members can feel as part of one whole.
So you see, video conferencing really is something that all businesses can benefit from. Does your business already make use of video conferencing? Tell us more about how it has benefited your company.
