Enterprise Video Distribution

Kollective securely and efficiently delivers live video and VOD across your network without affecting bandwidth or requiring additional hardware. 

Benefits for Every Team

“Communicating through live video allows us to act like a small company. We’re more nimble, making faster decision and getting the entire organization aligned at a moment’s notice.”

- Executive, Fortune 500 Global Bank

Great leaders find effective ways to communicate and enable their entire organization. They empower employees with the knowledge and tools to be effective at their jobs. Unfortunately, technical barriers with their enterprise networks make this a challenge.

Whether you are broadcasting the next CEO town hall or distributing the latest communication and collaboration tools, Kollective help you be more successful. You will have the ability to reach your entire organization, becoming more efficient and effective, empowering everyone in your organization to achieve their goals.

“Video is pivotal to our communications strategy because it allows our leadership to be authentic and transparent, connecting them with our entire global workforce.”

- VP of Corporate Communication, Global Consumer Brand

The role of Corporate Communications is no longer focused on simply distributing a message, but rather helping executives navigate a digital transformation to be more effective across the global enterprise. To leverage new forms of communication and collaboration across the enterprise. Unfortunately, technical challenges within corporate networks can make this challenging.

Whether it be broadcasting the next CEO town hall to the entire company or helping your organization adopt the leading communication and collaboration software, Kollective will ensure you’re successful. The results are employees feeling more connected and engaged.

“Historically running any type of video on our network was a major problem, but today we run live video events and they have virtually no impact on our network.”

- Chief Network Architect, Government Agency

Managing a global network has never been more challenging. The bandwidth and connectivity required to support the modern workplace often tests the limits of networks today.

With Kollective you can distribute any file, whether it be a live video broadcast, video on demand or a software package, across the entire enterprise without putting your core applications or user experience at risk. Your network will work smarter, not harder or require additional investment in bandwidth or hardware. You’ll distribute 100% of the content at 1% the bandwidth.

“The employee feedback from our last Town Hall was fantastic. Not only did people comment on the video quality, but on average they watched for 53 minutes of an hour long event.”

- Software Engineer, Global SaaS Company

The best technology solutions are those that go unnoticed. Technology runs in the background so users can focus on what the technology allows them to achieve vs the technology itself.

What our Customers are saying

 

Communications to the edge

“Efficient video delivery to staff located on the fringes of the network was key to the requirement of the solution. Kollective was able to meet this requirement bringing communications to areas where it had not been possible before.”

Steve Hunter

End user satisfaction

“Everything worked exactly as they said it would. Rarely have I had such a pleasant experience with a solution/vendor first time around. Our users were quite impressed, maybe even surprised by the degree of improvement.”

Phenomenal Service

Ivan Ortiz
Communications Program Manager, Driscolls

Metrics that matter

“Now, not only can we be sure videos have been delivered, we can see how many are viewed and also, crucially, when employees stop watching. It also gives us feedback on the videos we create by seeing what has really resonated and which have been less than successful. All this without any additional strain on our network or bandwidth.”

Charlotte Kensett
Head of Corporate & Member Communication, Nationwide Building Society

Ease of Use

“Since deploying Kollective, I have touched the settings on the client once in four years. From a network point of view, I don’t hear about it, which means it’s the perfect solution. One of the best we have.”

Frederic Ballara
Sr. Network Architect, Nestle

Schneider Electric Transforms Company Culture Using Live Video

In past years, Schneider has flown around 1,000 of its leaders to Europe for a yearly corporate strategic planning event called the Leadership Forum. The event had become cost-prohibitive, and Schneider realized it was an increasingly inefficient way to communicate strategy. Schneider worked with Kollective to move their Leadership Forum to Video and subsequently save costs and reach over 75,000 employees around the world with a high-quality viewing experience without negatively impacting the network.

Results:

  • Expanded employee reach - by moving to a digital Leadership Forum, Schneider was able to directly reach many more employees than they otherwise would have without Kollective.
  • Cost Reduction - Because the company no longer needed to send over 1,000 executives to Paris every January, there was a 20x reduction in overall cost.
  • Engaged Employees - The new format created an environment where employees felt empowered and engaged.
  • Video-Prepared Executives - Live video is no longer an afterthought, but is an executive and employee expectation. Video (including on-demand content) is now an integral part of their corporate culture and overarching communications plan.
  • Network Issues Prevented - Working with Kollective, Schneider ran multiple tests leading up to these events and the Network Readiness Test identified a number of potential issues on the Schneider network, the Kollective team was able to make configuration changes to address these.
  • High Quality, Flexible Delivery - Schneider offered high-quality delivery to all employees without negatively impacting the corporate network.
