2/24/2018 S-1 Table of Contents Expedia Expedia offers online travel booking for flights, hotels, car rentals, and more through its portfolio of over 200 web properties. The company encourages its more than 20,000 employees in 72 offices worldwide to use technology they know and love. This presents a unique business challenge: how does a global team work well together when their tools do not? After learning that many employees already relied on Dropbox to coordinate on projects, Expedia purchased 10,000 Dropbox Business licenses in 2015. It was an easy transition: the platform required little or no training, and Dropbox integrated seamlessly with the wide array of platforms and apps the business ran on—a key reason why so many Expedians had already adopted Dropbox. After just one month of deployment, the number of shared Dropbox folders increased sixfold and the number of mobile devices connected to Dropbox doubled, supporting greater productivity for employees as they traveled. Expedia also saved on IT costs as their workflows moved to the cloud. “A lot of times when we deploy software, we first hear about the challenges. But during our phased deployment of Dropbox Business, we mostly just heard employees saying, ‘Can I get that now?’” Chris Burgess Vice President of Information Technology Expedia Group 108 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1467623/000119312518055809/d451946ds1.htm 116/235
