Case Study: Reyes achieves more user-friendly, engaging remote collaboration with Virbela

Ana Reyes, PhD., blazed an academic path for virtual collaboration in the ‘90s. Now, she calls Virbela the most user-friendly virtual onboarding she’s ever experienced.

Ana Reyes, Ph.D., an educator and organizational consultant at New Worlds Enterprise, needed a virtual world that was easy enough for non-technical users to join, but still felt collaborative and engaging for remote work, teaching, and community-building. Before Virbela, earlier virtual environments often had technical and usability problems that made it difficult to support business and learning use cases at scale.

Virbela provided Reyes with a user-friendly 3D immersive platform featuring simple onboarding, human concierges, and intuitive tools for configuring rooms, classrooms, and events. With Virbela, she could invite a wider range of participants with just a laptop and broadband, creating more accessible and more natural-feeling collaboration than video meetings. The result was a more welcoming, present, and scalable remote experience, though no specific numerical metrics were provided.
