Client
Pleasant, California based
Polycom, Inc. is the global leader
in telepresence, video, and voice
solutions and a visionary in
communications that empower
people to connect and collaborate
everywhere. Of the millions of
business meetings that take place
throughout the world every day,
Polycom plays an important role in
many of them.
Challenge
With customers in dozens of
countries and a highly distributed
workforce to service and support
those clients, Polycom needs to stay
nimble when it comes to its office
space requirements. The company
also needs a cost-effective real estate
solution that will allow them to easily
enter new markets.
Solution
Polycom currently relies on Regus
for flexible full-time offices in five
countries: Mexico, Peru, Spain,
Canada, and the United States.
“The Regus solution allows us to
enter new markets quickly without
taking on the costs and risk of
establishing our own infrastructure,”
said Fred Franz, Polycom’s Senior
Director of Worldwide Real Estate
and Facilities. “It also makes our
real estate operation more efficient
since, we only have to deal with one
company to get set up at a location,
instead of a host of different service
providers.”
Franz also points out the importance
of location – in the right part of the
town, the right building, and even the
right floor.
“We like to be close to major freeways
and airports, for the convenience of
customers and our staff,” said Franz.
“And since our Regus offices are
mostly sales-based, we need to be in
first-class space. Regus works with
us to make sure our placement in the
building sets the best impression with
our visitors.”
