A few weeks ago I said that I would let you in on why some other people had been using Plantronics. I am a man of my word. We recently did a survey with our enterprise customers and we asked the respondents some of the benefits they saw in using the Plantronics brand, and why they made the purchase in the first place. The survey was done through TechValidate, a third party research firm that works with other large companies such as Dell and T-Mobile. Look at some of the results and think about how they could benefit you and your workplace.
When asked how they currently leverage Plantronics products and services to solve business problems, respondents selected several options (asked to check all that apply).
- 44% of respondents answered – “Piloting products as key component of new voice technology rollout”
- 40% of respondents answered – “Planning on add-on to existing voice technology already in use
- 61% of respondents answered – “Providing options for employees to use in addition to other audio endpoints.
