Adobe Systems tools are used worldwide for creating dynamic content that grabs attention and conveys messages. So when they chose an enterprise communications application for facilitating corporate presentations over a dispersed geographic area, scrolling through static presentation slides just didn't cut it.

cast:stream has allowed Adobe to introduce a wide range of rich media components into both customer briefings and as part of their own internal sales training. And since Adobe's customer base spans across such markets as corporate and graphic arts, cross platform support was an absolutely critical requirement.

Adobe started using cast:stream initially to introduce Adobe InDesign 2.0 professional page layout and design software to the Apple Consultants Network. Since then Adobe has broaden use of cast:stream to support other activities, such as training their own SE's and holding customer seminars for InDesign.

Another factor that made cast:stream attractive to Adobe was the cost of ownership. Since cast:stream is available as a product, the return on investment (ROI) was extremely attractive when compared to existing monthly service-based solutions.

But in addition to being more expensive, Adobe's alternatives had hidden costs for audio conferencing -- which add up quickly over time. And for international customers, the long-distance phone bills for an in-depth briefing was just prohibitive.

With cast:stream Adobe doesn't get penalized for using their system. There is no meter running or audio conferencing charge so Adobe can use as often as they desire with no additional cost or budgetary surprises.
