About Beat The Brochure
Beat The Brochure is the leading online travel company in the UK and offers their customers the best worldwide travel prices available on the Internet. Beat The Brochure is a division of the award-winning Como Street Travel Group.



The Challenge
Beat The Brochure’s UK Project Manager, Daniel Ox, is regularly working in collaboration with off-shore developers which led to the need for a software solution that would overcome communication barriers. “We required a desktop sharing solution that would allow us to break those barriers down, by working together visually when there is an issue that cannot be communicated by instant messaging or phone,” explains Daniel.

The Solution
Mikogo encompasses powerful and highly secure web conferencing software within a User Interface that is designed with ease of use in mind, providing a quick and effective solution for starting online meetings. “My first thought was just how simple the software is to use. Within 60 seconds of the download I was sharing my desktop with our development team on the other side of the world. It’s the clean and fast solution that we needed.”

The Conclusion
Mikogo is now an essential tool for the British company and has become a key application used multiple times every week to resolve technical problems during web development. “Technical problems cannot be explained over the phone due to their complexity, and this is where Mikogo helps us through visual explanation.”
“It’s a great time saver, and more importantly it can keep the stress levels to a minimum!”
