Success Story #1
Distribute the Videos Right on the BlackBerry Media Card

One of our clients has pre-loaded videos on Media Cards and distributed them to all their users. 

"Having videos right on the BlackBerry has made all the difference in the world!" - IT Manager

Situation:
This company was just starting to roll out 60 new BlackBerry Bold models to its users who are always on the road.  They were worried about how they were going to get everyone trained. 

Solution:

The IT Staff bought some media cards in bulk and pre-loaded the Videos To Go (tm) onto each Media Card.  Then, in many cases, they inserted the Media Cards into users BlackBerry devices before issuing them, in other cases they had to wait for the user to drop by the head office to get the card inserted.  At the end of the day, all users had Media Cards loaded up with videos they could watch anywhere, anytime.

Results:

- Reduced volume of "how to" questions to Help Desk.
- Users are excited to learn new helpful features.
- Increased productivity of BlackBerry users.

Success Story #2
150 User Roll-Out in 7 Days!

One of our clients uses the Videos Now (videos you watch on your computer) to help with the rollout of his BlackBerry users.  

"I was able to do a 150 user roll out in 7 days and easily access information on their requests with little to no wait was a great advantage. Great product, great support, and great results!"
  -- Paul Ponziani, Network Technician, Check Into Cash
Situation:
This company had started using BlackBerry smartphones and was about to add 150 new users.  They were worried about handling support questions on the new BlackBerry models.  

Solution:

The Help Desk Staff licensed our Videos Now product to learn about each new BlackBerry model.  (Since we cover all popular models, every device and every question could be answered.)   When the users called in, the Help Desk could use the keyword search feature to pin-point the answer for the user very quickly.

Results:

- Found so much material in one place - it saved hours searching through the web and RIM's knowledge base for answers.
- Able to give the users new pointers and make them much more productive.
