Common Business Frustrations

86% of professionals attribute work failures to lack

of collaboration and poor communication

Page 14: Pat Harper, Chief Technology Officer, PGi · Cloud telephony and UCaaS bundled services Webcast Events Cloud-based streaming with video distribution & production services Personal

Information workers waste an inordinate amount

of time orchestrating work rather than doing work. We spend

our time looking for information and people, and then

connecting and coordinating them to ensure that good decisions

are made.

It is all terribly inefficient.

Managing Day-to-Day Tasks Wastes Time

Once they have inventoried,

prioritized and decided what

to do next, they must click

around again to take the next

action.

Nothing is prioritized,

so they have to determine

prioritization themselves.

Users must click around too

many places to stay on top of

calls, voicemails, chats and

meetings.
