With the explosion of affordable high-quality video conferencing solutions, big and small businesses are now able to access the proven benefits of video conferencing such as faster decision making processes, keeping remote teams connected and saving on travel costs. However, there are a few barriers that have caused many businesses to stall when it comes to adopting video conferencing.

Let’s explore how your business can overcome these barriers:

Prepare and educate

Prepare your network, without proper Quality of Service (QoS) in place, you can’t ensure the seamless integration of new technologies. Ensure that your network infrastructure can support video conferencing. Here is a simple overview of what’s required to use various IPVideoTalk plans seamlessly on your network.

Discuss the Real Benefits

Telling your employees about the benefits of IPVideoTalk is just not enough, you need to show them. IPVideoTalk does not require client downloads, think of all the time you will save because you don’t need to wait 5-10 minutes prior to each meeting for updates. Communicate and demonstrate how this will make work life easier and make more space in the day. Employees can travel less because they can stay connected via video, or they won’t need to carry around heavy laptops because meetings can be joined via mobile device or tablet. Give specific examples of how IPVideoTalk will significantly improve workflow.

Lead by example

When introducing new technology, lead from the top down. Whether it’s IPVideoTalk or another productive technology, you need an evangelist in the group. For example, if all team leads host their weekly meetings using IPVideoTalk, the rest of the company’s employees will see how simple it is to use. If top managers are using it the rest of the company will follow suit-especially if it’s made easily available.

Talk about Security

Information security is a huge concern; we hear of data breaches and malicious hacking every day. Customers and employees need to know that security is a priority and information is being protected. Knowing IPVideoTalk has safeguards in place will make people more comfortable using it for meetings. IPVideoTalk protects your meeting and communication data in three main ways:

1. Passwords: Meetings can be password protected from the IPVideoTalk Portal. Just enter the desired password when scheduling the meeting and this password will be required to join.
2. Encryption: All traffic including signalling, audio, video and stored data are encrypted by Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), often referred to as bank-grade encryption.
3. Internal System Structure: IPVideoTalk’s internal structure is concealed behind a firewall making it difficult for hackers to ascertain the structure and launch an attack

Preparing your infrastructure, providing information to your employees and leading by example will make the transition to a new technology easy and perhaps enjoyable. Just make sure that your employees know what they’re gaining by getting to enjoy this new product and you should have no problem breaking down the barriers.
