Impressed by Zoom’s user-friendly enterprise product suite is Al Pooley, VP of Infrastructure & Cloud Services at Sophos, who commented: “Our global enterprise suffered from too many communications solutions, all of which left us unsatisfied in one way or another, particularly regarding ease of use, integrations, and scalability. We needed to find a better way to connect our 77 offices and numerous remote workers.” Pooley continued: “Zoom has provided us one comprehensive communications solution that scales across all our end users and meeting spaces. Zoom has been pivotal in enabling us to build and strengthen teams across multiple geographies quickly and cost-effectively. Most importantly, our users, right up to our CEO, love it.”

Yuan, founder and CEO of Zoom, added: “As the market demands effortless collaboration and future-proof technologies, Zoom has demonstrated our ability to increase productivity and reduce costs by providing the first solution specifically designed with video in mind. Already established as one of the fastest-growing business applications globally, we see a highly successful 2017 as the perfect springboard to achieving even more in 2018 for our UK and worldwide customers.”

Daniel Creigh, head of UK & Ireland at Zoom, commented: “The rapid growth of Zoom across the UK has been fuelled by an ever-increasing demand for simple-to-use and secure meeting experiences. Zoom has met these demands for streamlined communications, while enhancing business processes and delighting our users at every turn.”
