Abstract
This IDC study examines the market outlook for telepresence for 2008-2012.
These telepresence rooms use audio and visual technologies, interior design,
and high-speed wide area network connections to mimic the experience of a
face-to-face meeting, regardless of where the rooms are located.
"Competing vendors have certainly taken advantage of Cisco' s marketing and
presence in the market to help drive market adoption," says Nora Freedman,
senior analyst in the Enterprise Networks group. "Yet telepresence is still a
costly endeavor for organizations that require a solid business case for hard
cost savings."
