Case Study: World Wide Technology widens talent pool and boosts agile remote collaboration with Ignite Technologies' Sococo

Sococo Helps World Wide Technology Go Remote

World Wide Technology (WWT) is a global technology company with more than $12 billion in annual revenue and over 5,000 employees. Faced with an onsite-only Agile culture that limited recruiting to local hubs, caused feedback bottlenecks, costly travel for client collaboration, and hampered ad hoc pair programming, WWT turned to Ignite Technologies’ Sococo virtual workspace to enable distributed work without sacrificing culture or agility.

Ignite Technologies implemented Sococo as an always-on, visual virtual office that let teams and client stakeholders “come into the office” from anywhere. As a result, WWT shortened its recruitment cycle by 12–24 months, widened its talent pool, improved real-time communication and visibility into team activity, scaled through rapid growth, and reduced travel and training costs while improving code quality and client collaboration.
