Death of the Web Conference - New Research from Join.me

By Larry Bodine

As virtual meetings become more commonplace, legacy web conferencing software is wasting an unacceptable amount of time, according to a new study from Ovum and join.me.

It is based on a survey of more than 3,900 full-time professionals worldwide, regarding their collaborative behaviors and activities. The key findings from this report:

• Late start times are costing executives 5 days and 19 hours per year in lost time and productivity.
• Technical difficulties with web conferencing software is the number one cause of delayed meetings.
• • More than 50 percent of employees report that the number of meetings they have is increasing.
• • 32% of all meetings are virtual, a trend that skews higher for younger workers. 

Frustration with traditional web conferencing tools has led 66% of corporate buyers to look for new collaboration solutions to accommodate an increasingly collaborative and connected workforce
