| Morgan Hunt Reaps Significant Gains in Productivity and Immediate ROI Using Citrix Online's GoToMeeting |
|
| Easy, cost-efficient online meetings lead to a six-figure productivity increase in just four months |
|
| Amersham, UK. – Sept. 1, 2009 – Morgan Hunt, the 2009 Recruitment Company of the Year , has generated a six-figure staff productivity improvement in just six months by using Citrix® GoToMeeting® to facilitate online collaboration and interaction among clients and employees, and reduce unnecessary travel. With its simple interface and cost-efficient, flat-fee pricing model, GoToMeeting achieved incredibly fast adoption throughout the organisation, providing Morgan Hunt with the highest return on investment of any technology product in a decade. |
|
| Morgan Hunt's highly dispersed workforce across six UK sites use GoToMeeting approximately eight times a week to collaborate with their clients and colleagues, including their off-shore development team in the Asian sub-continent. GoToMeeting enables them to instantly and securely connect with colleagues and clients and avoid complicated meeting scheduling logistics, and unnecessary time and money spent travelling. |
|
| According to Gavin Megnauth, Director of Operations & Group IT at Morgan Hunt, the 'ease-of-use' of GoToMeeting was a key differentiator over other solutions: "Because GoToMeeting is so easy to set up and use, the take-up by our staff has been incredible, especially compared to other technology solutions. Our less IT-literate staff are often apprehensive about using a new tool, but GoToMeeting has been adopted quickly and enthusiastically at all levels. |
|
| "Our use of GoToMeeting emphasises our determination to use technology that provides a new, sensible solution to age-old problems. This solution has had the quickest and biggest return on investment of any IT solutions we have implemented in the last decade and, in addition, it is environmentally sound," concludes Megnauth. |

GoToMeeting offers a range of features to make it easy for any business to meet and collaborate online, present information and demonstrate products, including:
- Drawing tools - to draw, highlight and point to items of interest right on the screen
- Desktop recording and playback – to record meetings to review or share later
- Mac® support - so both PC and Mac users can host and join GoToMeeting sessions
- Total audio – for integrated free phone conferencing, VoIP or both

| "We take pride in providing businesses of all sizes with instant increases in productivity and cost-savings while providing an amazing user experience," said Andrew Millard, Marketing Director for Citrix Online UK. "The fast adoption of GoToMeeting by Morgan Hunt's non-technical employees shows how simplicity and usability are essential in providing immediate and unheard of ROI with collaboration tools." |
