Business travel is archaic, expensive and ineffective. It used to be seen as a luxury and a deserved perk for a demanding job. But now it’s a nuisance. For a start, it’s an inefficient way of getting access to the contacts you need to see.
Why is it? Ask yourself this question. If you put your work productivity under the microscope, how much time do you waste travelling to meetings? How much of that time would you spend doing the activities that make the business more profitable?
The time that employees spend out of the office, or away from their laptops, is “wasted time”, costing the business money. With the eagle-eyed approach to expenditure these days, it’s surprising that companies are not looking more closely at how they can eliminate these costs from the balance sheet.

Comparison of the Konftel 300 VS Polycom Soundstation2/VSX. The conferencing market is booming. Small, Medium, Large or Enterprise business as well as Government and the Academic world all are changing their way how they communicate. Cost reductions, simplifying meetings, travel restrictions, using staff time efficient rather than wasting it on the road, train or plane… all of this drives business to rethink how they communicate. Green conscience and Carbon Footprint reductions are also contributing to rethink and change. High quality browser based Video Conferencing, Web Conferencing and Audio conferencing solutions are all very easy to use affordable and an accessible way to have a very good conversation, without travelling. Meetings – even High Quality Face to Face or high end traning, do not afford travelling anymore! Good hardware for in and output of Audio and Video play a crucial part in combination with the best software on the market to achieve a quality result. We are regularly testing all hardware available on the market (Video/Audio/related) in house and with our customers and give you our honest opinion on what works and what doesn’t. Today we look at two contenders in the audio conferencing market Konftel and Polycom. Polycom have increased their pricing twice in 2009! They are up a hefty 25% in recession times! Even though prices can rise, I don’t think this is the right move and it shows that corporations that can do it still tend to cash in, even more in tough times. Konftel had a moderate increase of 10% which I think is justifiable. Have a look and let us know you opinion. Happy watching, contact us for questions.
