Measure user adoption

Unified Communications (UC) technology can enable entirely new ways of working, creating huge opportunities to increase and drive collaboration but also bring significant changes to the way users interact. Without the right adoption strategy, many unified communications deployments fail to reach their full potential with functionality under-utilised, or not used at all.

Measuring the rate of adoption and optimising the full functionality is key to driving adoption and calculating ROI. FourNet Analytics is built to measure all UC usage, such as personal video, softphone, instant messages, desktop sharing and file transfers.

By monitoring user adoption and providing instant dashboards and reports showing trends over time, FourNet Analytics can help inform your adoption strategy to fully captialise on your UC investment. By allowing users to clearly visualise the level of savings generated by the investment, the more they will engage with the new features and become their own champions for improving the way they work.
