"We aim to create an environment in which employees can work flexibly irrespective of where they are. Our company has been pleased with the simple user interface, high quality, and increased operational efficiency Logitech room solutions for Microsoft Teams provide.”

Takeshi Koarai
Representative Director and President

Overview

Japan Radio Corporation (JRC) is a global enterprise headquartered in Tokyo that specializes in wireless electronics for the communications industry. The company employs approximately 6,000 people and operates in 19 countries throughout Europe, Asia, and the Americas.

When JRC initiated a recent migration from expensive legacy video conferencing equipment to Microsoft Teams-based video meetings, they established multiple objectives in evaluating Teams-certified hardware options: seamless integration with Teams, a simple user interface, high-quality audio and video performance, and a substantial reduction in Total Cost of Ownership. Logitech (known as Logicool in Japan) Room Solutions for Microsoft Teams fulfilled their requirements and expectations.

Challenge

Japan Radio recognizes the power and potential of digital transformation and workstyle reforms made possible by video conferencing. When they decided to migrate conference systems to Microsoft Teams, they wanted to use the opportunity to make video meetings more efficient and productive while also reducing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of their video conferencing infrastructure

Solution

After evaluating multiple alternative solutions, the JRC IT team selected the Logitech Room Solution for Microsoft Teams for medium rooms, which includes Logitech Rally, a Logitech Tap touch controller, and a Microsoft-approved mini PC.

Preconfigured for streamlined installation, the Logitech MTR solution was super easy to deploy and get up and running with Microsoft Teams. Within three months of the first installation, 77 conference rooms in 15 locations throughout Japan were fully operational.

Results

Japan Radio management has calculated that the deployment of Logitech MTR solutions has reduced TCO of the company’s previous video conferencing spend while simultaneously increasing video meeting quality.

JRC employees appreciate the ease of use and professional quality of their Teams video meetings. In particular, the one-touch join, easy content sharing, and center-of-room control features enabled by Logitech Tap have helped make video collaboration easier than ever.
