Accordent Value

Accordent Technologies can provide substantial value to an organization in terms of both cost savings and productivity gains. Defining business value in quantitative terms will require further analysis and vary for every organization. There are many compelling business advantages that ALL organizations benefit from when deploying Accordent solutions.

• Accordent's pricing model allows organizations to create an unlimited amount of content for an unlimited number of viewers, without incurring additional costs. This model is particularly compelling to organizations that have had to deal with web conferencing and ASP models which, unlike the Accordent model, include incremental charges for distribution to large audiences and for increased usage.
• The ease of use and automation built into Accordent products greatly reduces or eliminates the learning curve for presenters and trainers to capture rich media content.
• The ability to record important content captured in studios, conference rooms, auditoria and training rooms, allows employees, students, partners and investors to watch (and re-watch) content they missed
• The ability to provide key information in a timely and consistent way, to leverage intellectual assets across the organization, to empower employees with just-in-time, just-enough training, leads to cost savings and greater productivity per employee as well as faster training of new hires and higher employee retention rates
• Accordent's integration with existing web, streaming and network infrastructure (both internal and external) as well as with existing CMS and LMS systems leverages investments in a cost effective way
• Online training and other communications (such as marketing webinars, partner briefings etc.), significantly reduces travel costs and can eliminate instructor, facility and production fees
• Tracking of end user content access and comprehension can provide evidence of company efforts to adhere to laws and policies and thus prevent future litigations.
