    Remove Childrens

    Current Market leaders

    Over 40% saw positive economic benefit whilst 42% did not know

    Over 50% expect positive economic benefit in 2009

    A third said that the data showed it was a success and another 61% sait the projects ‘felt like a success’

    The reported important benefits where ‘face to face time’, innovation and cost saving

    Nearly 3/4 say that investment will increase in 2009/10

    The most common uses for pilot or deployment were for training and meetings

    Internal meetings were more common than external ones

    More complex uses are being considered now that they feel more confident

    Increasing use of the more and more complex applications of the technology

    Leading options were web conferencing, real face to face and video conferencing

    Telepresence $250k per room, $10-20k per month

    A personal experience dealing with a global team

    3D Web are considered more like face to face than they are web conferencing

    Over 50% said it costs less than the comparisons

    54% say more than a man months effort, 34% more than 5-6 man months

    29% in less than 9 months, but as big ‘don’t’ know

    Majority in ‘pre-production’ or pilot or proof of concept

    There are many barriers to adoption

    Train, train, train, the University of Delaware ran a pilot and gave 20 hours training to staff, they said it should have been 40
