Polycom® Medium Business Solutions

Easy-to-use, cost-effective solutions improve operational efficiencies and accelerate growth

Medium-sized businesses (MBs) have always faced an uphill battle when competing with larger, more established companies. The challenge is even more daunting in the current economy of slower business growth, reduced sales opportunities, and sometimes lower revenues. Medium-sized businesses are turning to Polycom solutions because they can help them:

  • Improve productivity
  • Enhance their corporate image
  • Make better decisions faster
  • Reduce costs

In this economic slow-down—and especially as the economy begins to accelerate again—the most competitive and successful MBs are seizing every opportunity to respond to global demands, fortify relationships with customers, and maintain financial control. Unified communications and collaboration solutions—both outside and within the company—will play a major role in helping medium-sized businesses meet key organizational, operational, and business objectives.



The SMB segment is becoming the next potential target market for a myriad of business technologies ranging from IP telephony to mobility solutions to videoconferencing.

Corporate Office

MBs must stay connected with staff, customers, and suppliers regardless of their location—whether they are in the same city or halfway around the world. Polycom voice, video, and wireless solutions enable rich communications between office locations allowing MBs to bring products to market quickly and shorten sales cycles. At the same time, Polycom services help ensure the optimal deployment and maximum user adoption, so you easily meet your users’ requirements.

Polycom Products for Corporate Office

Polycom Voice Solutions – Polycom voice solutions (desktop, VoIP, wireless) are ideal for a number of MB applications. Wireless phone users can now stay in touch throughout an office with easy access to key resources and information. Push-to-talk features also allow real-time wireless communications. IP telephony allows high quality, reliable communications between remote locations at a fraction of the cost of traditional analog lines.

Polycom Telepresence Solutions – Polycom's complete portfolio of high definition (HD) telepresence solutions ranging from personal telepresence solutions to immersive telepresence solutions are ideal for a number of MB applications including training and distance learning, supplier and vendor management, and other solutions that help build an MBs image.

Branch Office

With collaboration solutions, branch offices now have access to key resources such as remote product experts, distance learning instructors, and other headquarters support personnel. Interactive, engaging discussions become the norm rather than the exception. Training and strategy implementation become consistent (especially through the use of streaming or on-demand training). And the branch office becomes a productive extension of the corporate location. And, if managing these geographically dispersed end-points is impractical for an MB's internal resources, Polycom Global Services can provide the expert support services to augment your team and help ensure the best user experience while delivering full system interoperability.
