BlueJeans by Verizon Named a Visionary in Gartner Magic Quadrant for Meeting Solutions
15 Octobre 2020 - 9:00PM
BlueJeans by Verizon today announced it has been positioned by
Gartner, Inc. in the Visionaries quadrant of the 2020 Magic
Quadrant for Meeting Solutions. Offered as standalone products or
bundled together with other Verizon UCaaS services, such as One
Talk, the BlueJeans Meetings and Events platform was evaluated for
the Magic Quadrant based on overall completeness of vision and
ability to execute.
According to the report, “Seventy-four percent of companies plan
to permanently shift to more remote work as a result of their
experiences during the forced isolation caused by COVID-19.” As a
result, “By 2024, remote work and changing workforce demographics
will impact enterprise meetings so that only 25% will take place in
person, down from 60% today.”
“Due to the current climate, the video conferencing industry as
a whole reached an inflection point this year, which we’re seeing
reflected in this year’s Gartner Magic Quadrant report,” said
Quentin Gallivan, CEO, BlueJeans. “It’s no longer just about
creating better meeting experiences. Video conferencing is
fundamentally changing the way businesses operate,” he continued.
“BlueJeans has always been focused on helping our customers drive
business success. Now, as a Verizon company, we’re well positioned
to transform the way people and organizations across industries
experience work by optimizing video collaboration in real-time at
the edge of the 5G network.”
The beginning of 2020 marked 10 years of successive revenue
growth for BlueJeans, with the company reaching the coveted
milestone of profitability. This paved a path for the acquisition
by Verizon earlier this year. BlueJeans continued to see a
significant increase in overall growth and platform
adoption over the past year, with total meeting minutes
increasing by 2.7x. As a result, BlueJeans was able to offer
new pricing and packaging, as well as BlueJeans Smart Meetings free
to all customers—allowing users to capture critical meeting
moments, assign action items and quickly consume meeting highlights
post-meeting.
Furthermore, as of October 8, 2020 on Gartner Peer
Insights, BlueJeans has received a 4.6 out of 5 customer rating for
its meetings solutions platform, which is the highest rating in
terms of vendors with more than 50 reviews over the past 12 months
(based on 378 total reviews). In April 2020, a CEO in the services
industry called BlueJeans “the perfect meeting solution” and “a
great alternative to other meeting solutions. The meetings are easy
to schedule and access for all parties. There are great features
like whiteboard, transcription and recording.”
In February 2020, a CEO in the finance industry said, “My
company is located in two continents and three countries and this
makes a video conference solution such as BlueJeans very important.
It allows members of my organization to be able to connect to
meetings through desktop application or mobile application. Picture
quality is always clear and reliable, so is the audio quality
amongst the best I have seen.” These reviews, among others, led to
BlueJeans being recognized as a 2020 Gartner Peer Insights
Customers’ Choice for Meetings Solutions as Reviewed by
Customers.
Additional investments this year include new partnerships and
enhancements to the BlueJeans Meetings, Events, and Gateway
solutions that improve upon the platform’s user experience and
security in order to better suit today’s hybrid workforce.
