“The ability to collaborate face-to-face over video is becoming a standard ask for today’s businesses, and ADP Dealer Services now can fulfill those requests with a plug-and-play, cloud-delivered video UC, service,” said Gary Testa, global vice president of Cloud and Service Providers at Polycom. “With ADP Dealer Services new service, enabled by Polycom VVX Business Media Phones and the VVX Camera, video collaboration can easily and cost-effectively become a central part of a company’s workflow.”
