Case Study: Large Technology Company achieves 100% uptime and $39M+ in travel savings with Panopto

How a Tech Platform Revitalized its Global Sales Event with Panopto

A global technology platform with more than 200,000 employees across 200+ countries—offering search, advertising, cloud, software, and hardware—needed a way to move a week-long, mid-January 2021 sales event online due to pandemic travel restrictions. The company required a secure, scalable video solution to support large audiences and maintain a reliable streaming experience.

After purchasing Panopto in December 2020, the company quickly branded its portal, integrated Panopto with internal SSO, and used Panopto’s live webcasting to run the event. Over the five-day event, 13,000 employees logged in to watch 53,000 hours of video across 5,645 live sessions with 0 service interruptions—achieving 100% uptime, more than $1 million in productivity gains over five days, and an estimated $39 million+ in travel savings, and prompting plans to expand the partnership.
