About The Customer
ConceptBoard is a company that offers an online workspace and collaboration tool designed to enhance the productivity and communication of remote teams. Their platform is used by teams that are flexible, remotely distributed, and global. These teams require clear communication tools that allow them to collaborate effectively, regardless of their physical location. ConceptBoard's customers range from those working from home or in coffee shops to those traveling in planes, trains, or automobiles. The company's mission is to replicate a natural communication flow for remote and onsite workers alike, making it easier than ever for colleagues to connect with one another in real-time, directly within the context of their work.
The Challenge
The modern workplace has seen a significant shift towards remote work, with the number of regular work-at-home employees growing by 140% since 2005. This trend has been accelerated by technological innovations such as email, chat apps, and productivity management systems. However, despite these advancements, remote work is not without its challenges. The primary issue faced by companies today is ensuring clear communication between teams that are increasingly flexible, remotely distributed, and global. Traditional video conferencing tools, while useful, often operate in a silo, limiting the ability for colleagues to communicate in the context of their work. This lack of integrated communication tools can hinder collaboration and productivity.
The Solution
ConceptBoard, in partnership with Vonage, has developed a solution to this challenge through the use of Vonage's Video API. This technology allows ConceptBoard to offer an online workspace and collaboration tool that enables colleagues to connect with one another in real-time, directly within the context of their work. This means that whether team members are working on a presentation together, evaluating the latest sales pipeline, or conducting their daily scrum meeting, they can communicate and collaborate seamlessly. The Vonage-powered video and voice capabilities integrated into ConceptBoard's platform replicate a more natural work and communication flow, bridging the gap between remote and onsite workers.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
