As business communications evolve and become increasingly unified, one of the most intriguing new technologies being added to the mix is that of live videoconferencing. This technology can take many forms, from the grainy/jerky Skype webcam video call to the stunning realism of a telepresence suite.

Regardless of the type though, they all have one thing in common; they require reliable network connectivity and delivery to achieve acceptable levels of quality. This means managing videoconferencing loads across the network lifecycle – from planning and deployment to administration and monitoring and troubleshooting – as yet another increasingly critical network-enabled and network-delivered service for the business.

EMA has conducted a major research study to investigate and better understand the challenges that videoconferencing technologies are creating for network engineers and managers and determine how to best accommodate these highly visible technologies into operational best practices.

Join EMA Managing Research Director Jim Frey (LinkedIn profile) as he shares the results of this new research in an informative Webinar where he will:

  • Share details on current levels of adoption and use of various videoconferencing technologies
  • Identify the ways in which organizations are assigning responsibilities for each lifecycle phase
  • Relate key best practice findings for planning, monitoring, and troubleshooting videoconferencing in the network
  • Discuss some of the ways in which network management tools and technologies are being adapted to meet these needs
  • Highlight case studies of how four organizations are addressing these challenges
