TRAVERSE CITY, MI, May 21, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Appia Communications has released a new case study demonstrating the advantages of video communication and collaboration for small and midsize businesses and organizations.
The study features Snodgrass-King Pediatric Dental Associates, a growing dental practice serving the Nashville, Tennessee area. With four busy locations spread up to 40 miles apart, it was getting harder to communicate efficiently and effectively between offices. Everyone agreed that regular meetings between offices were useful and necessary, but it was increasingly difficult to coordinate, schedule and attend any meetings.
"Snodgrass-King needed to bring everyone together in a way that suited the on-demand nature of a bustling dental practice," said Victor von Schlegell, Appia's president. "That meant giving staff the ability to meet and collaborate whenever they needed, without spending unproductive time traveling to and from other offices."
The answer proved to be Appia Video Communication (AVC), a flexible video platform designed to make secure, business-quality video communication affordable and easy to use. Beyond office meetings, Snodgrass-King found that AVC's built-in collaboration tools opened up additional opportunities to streamline trainings, supplier demos, and consultations between doctors.
"Everybody likes that AVC is easy to use, and we like the quality of the audio and video," said Melody Snodgrass, owner and operations manager of Snodgrass-King. "But most importantly, we're enjoying the more efficient use of our time."
