Polycom Case Study Sample

The Polycom and Riverbed Technology deployments were components of the revamping of the firm’s IT infrastructure to support the redesign of its conferencing center to increase its size and add video capability. The switch from ISDN to IP was also made at the same time.

“When we switched to IP, we wanted to ensure that bandwidth was guaranteed for our video conferencing applications in order to provide the highest quality conferences,” says Weinberger. “That was a key factor in our selection of Riverbed Technology for bandwidth optimization in support of our wide area network. And since Polycom solutions are open standards-based, we had no problem integrating the two technologies and achieving our goal of delivering the highest quality video communications experience.”
