Victory Packaging Standardizes on WebEx WebOffice for 1400 Employees Across 70 Offices

On-Demand Collaboration Suite Simplifies Training and Improves Communication Across Nationwide Network of Offices

SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 31, 2006—On-demand collaboration solution, WebEx WebOffice, is helping Victory Packaging improve productivity, increase coordination and enhance communication among its 70 locations and 1,400 employees. WebEx WebOffice from on-demand leader WebEx (Nasdaq: WEBX), enables Victory Packaging employees to share best practices, tools and templates with geographically dispersed peers and hold highly interactive web meetings with remote customers.

“As a rapidly growing business, employee engagement and development is vital to our continued success. We needed a nimble and cost-effective way to train our employees and foster our corporate culture across 70 locations throughout North America,” said Franny Oxford, head of Human Resource and Employee Development at Victory Packaging. “With WebEx WebOffice, employees can effectively gain new skills and learn from colleagues across the company. I can’t imagine a better alternative to help Victory Packaging achieve our training and organizational goals.”

Based in Houston, with more than $600 million in revenue, Victory Packaging sells packaging-related supplies and services to Fortune 500 organizations. Like most companies with multiple local offices, Victory Packaging employees rarely have an opportunity to meet face-to-face. To help drive innovation, collaboration and creativity, and build a sense of community, Victory Packaging turned to WebEx WebOffice. With the on-demand collaboration solution, employee experts can teach classes on subjects ranging from purchasing plastics to using Microsoft Excel. The results have been so successful that Victory Packaging users started using WebEx WebOffice to collaborate with one another and sales teams began using it to communicate with customers and prospects.

WebEx WebOffice also serves as the Victory Packaging corporate intranet, providing a communication vehicle to update employees on company announcements and marketing activities. As a result, employees now have a direct line to the corporate direction of the company, helping to foster a feeling of involvement in the future of the organization.

“As the global business landscape becomes increasingly competitive, organizations are seeking ways to foster collaboration between geographically dispersed teams and business units,” said Karen Leavitt, vice president, WebEx WebOffice at WebEx. “Collaboration technology becomes more than a means to communicate, but a way to drive employee contribution, increase productivity and impact the bottom line. Victory Packaging is a great example of how organizations of all sizes are using on-demand solutions to compete, and we are thrilled to be a partner in their success.”

WebEx WebOffice integrates real-time and asynchronous collaboration capabilities into a unified solution to help increase productivity, coordination and communication with colleagues, customers and partners. By combining tools such as document sharing, calendaring and real-time web meetings into an easy-to-use suite, WebEx WebOffice enables small businesses to be more integrated, efficient, nimble and ultimately more competitive.
