CHALLENGE

When an organization has over 14,000 employees and holds over 100-200 meetings a week, having standardized, seamless communication is key. King County IT needed video conferencing that didn’t require a half hour setup before each meeting and provided a standard experience, no matter the location of the conference room within the county.

Group collaboration is easy, now that employees no longer have to hop in their cars and drive across the county to go over things like spreadsheets. King County is also now able to hold Skype interviews with potential candidates.
