 | | Organizations are taking a close look at cutting costs, yet need to maintain their competitive advantage and increase productivity. Microsoft Unified Communications help organizations reduce the operating costs of travel, telecom and IT, while allowing them to improve their business outcomes in a sustainable way.
Join us and discover how Microsoft Office Communications Server and Exchange 2010, can help take your organization to the next level of productivity and profitability. See first-hand how they offer a complete software platform that delivers innovative communication capabilities to:
Reduced Travel and Training Costs – Web and videoconferencing, as well as other unified communications (UC) modalities, connect participants with meetings or “events” where they do not need to be physically present. Pre-sales work, internal meetings, training and staff performance reviews are activities that frequently require less travel after deploying a UC solution. Using UC solutions to deliver training to employees through their desktops provides savings in areas of travel, specific training costs, and productivity, because employees can train on their own time rather than at set times.
Lower Real-Estate and Facility Costs – Using collaborative technologies such as presence awareness and soft telephony client and videoconferencing, some organizations can expand operations and geographic reach without the costs of additional office infrastructure, which can reduce office space per employee and improve space utilization.
Reduce Telephony and Conferencing Service Charges – Traditional conference call services are expensive. Organizations will see significant reductions in the amounts paid for dial-in meeting services purchased from teleconferencing vendors by replacing them with IP network based conferencing capabilities. Presence awareness and UC products result in fewer telephone calls because callers can see the availability of intended recipients and recipients can determine rules for how they wish to be reached. Replace long distance and audio conferencing call charges with VoIP and save the cost of office move for phones.
Reduced Cost of Voice Mail –With Microsoft unified communications solutions, e-mail, voice mail, faxes and calendar events all arrive in one inbox and all managed in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007. Integrated unified messaging (UM) systems allow site and server consolidation, reducing the total number of servers required to provide voice mail and fax service. Consolidation can dramatically lower maintenance and upkeep costs, particularly for organizations with remote or branch offices.
Lower IT Infrastructure and Administration Costs – With Microsoft unified communications solutions, organizations can simplify management and maximize resources and budget with increased flexibility.
