Enabling your team to reach its full potential
Unified Communications
You work for a winning organization, but the game of networking and collaboration is
changing. To avoid becoming an also-ran, you’ve got to understand what’s happening:
Different employees in different departments and different locations all
must work together, like a smooth-running football team. But employees

UNIFIED COMMUNICATIONS
Unified Communications will help you bridge the complexity chasm and get your team
pulling together. UC is a set of products that provides a consistent, unified user interface
and user experience across multiple devices and media types:

IP NETWORKS
are being used for
voice, data and video.
BYOD AND MOBILITY
are bringing new devices
and usage patterns
into the organization.
CLOUDS,
public and private,
are becoming
pervasive.
BUSINESS CONTINUITY
is more important
than ever.
Your team
members use a wide
range of user devices,
including tablets, smart phones,
laptops and desktops. No matter
where your team members are,
your UC system will find them and
will deliver the experience they are
used to, securely, thanks to the
unique “presence” capability
of UC. In today’s mobile
organizations, that’s not a
luxury, but a necessity.
