CIO | 3 STEPS to Maximizing ROI for Microsoft Lync Enterprise VoiceChristiaan Stavorinus
ENTERPRISES ARE STANDING AT A CROSSROADS AND COMMUNICATION IS KEY TO SUCCESS.
In today’s highly competitive, global marketplace. Executives need to make decisions quickly, but information and employees are spread out in many different locations. To operate efficiently, businesses need fast, simple ways to exchange data.
As a result, many enterprises stand at an important crossroad. They have invested large sums in legacy Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) network voice infrastructures that do not easily support modern Unified Communications (UC) solutions, such as the increasingly popular Microsoft Lync.
“About 70% of businesses are now using Lync in some fashion,” states Irwin Lazar, Vice President and Service Director for The Nemertes Research Group, Inc. “Most of these companies use it for instant messaging, web conferencing, and voice/video chat. A small but growing percentage are using it to replace or augment their PBXs.”
In addition to delivering new communication options, Unified Commu- nications delivers other benefits. By leaving behind their legacy PBX and moving ahead to a new Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) network infrastructure, businesses reduce their capital expenditure (CapEx) and lower their ongoing maintenance requirements, which can decrease their operating expenditure (OpEx) by as much as 50%.
The transition from the old to the new works with the right network infrastructure. Enterprises need one that is rock solid. “Today, businesses simply cannot tolerate downtime,” says James Rodd, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Modality Systems, Unified Communications specialists. Businesses must also have a way to integrate their traditional systems with new, modern functions. Finally, they need a solution that offers robust security, so corporate data
is protected as it travels from location to location. To deliver such functionality, enterprises need a Session Border Controller (SBC) that works in conjunction with Lync to enable the delivery of sophisticated voice, data, and video services to enterprise users.
IBM Connect BP302 Social Communications: A Roadmap for Connecting Sametime with Everything
Social Business, Mobile or Social Communications: what path should you take? Does Connections need Sametime or does it stand alone?
What are the most critical decisions an organizations makes to unify existing audio conferencing, video conferencing, and phone systems? In this session we will offer a roadmap to Unified Communications that marks the critical “forks in the road” on the journey to UC and illustrate experiences from actual implementations. We’ll cover UC platforms (Sametime, Lync, Jabber), video (Cisco, Polycom, Avaya), telephony (Cisco, Avaya, ShoreTel or legacy), firewalls, mobility, and call control/dial plans. The session will wrap-up with a live demo featuring full integration of Sametime, Connections, and Polycom video.
Microsoft Unified Communications - Network Considerations for Microsoft ODS D...Microsoft Private Cloud
Enterprises that are adopting unified communications (UC) platforms such as Microsoft Office Communication Server (OCS) must carefully consider and plan how UC will affect their LAN and WAN infrastructures, as well as how their networks may either hinder or improve the
performance of a UC solution. Everything from bandwidth considerations, to firewall topology, to end-user habits and experiences must be taken into consideration. If done correctly, enterprises can realize great productivity gains with new levels of collaboration, both internally and with external parties. Reduction of WAN and LAN infrastructure, built to maximum capacity in support of past IP telephony or voice/data convergence efforts, can also reduce costs and lessen management complexity in the long run.
This document discusses how enterprise video conferencing is now ready for mainstream adoption due to technological advances and the convergence of video and IP telephony. It provides an overview of customer requirements for video conferencing solutions, describes a joint video conferencing solution from Avaya and Polycom that addresses these requirements, and provides an example of how this solution helped a financial institution improve their video conferencing capabilities.

On-demand video conferencing allows for ad-hoc collaboration that is easy to use and cost effective. It allows employees to meet without scheduling in advance, enabling collaboration exactly when needed with whoever is needed. This helps organizations lower costs while increasing productivity by supporting remote workers, speeding up decision making, and enabling new business opportunities through faster customer interactions. On-demand conferencing eliminates the need to reserve technology in advance and can be either ad-hoc or scheduled in calendars.

Why Server Virtualization Demands an End-user’s PerspectiveCompuware APM
Enterprises regularly refresh server platforms to harness improvements in compute capacity, power consumption and maintenance costs. In 2012, servers are more likely to be virtualized than physical, presenting new challenges in a migration project. Monitoring at a component-level won't improve performance but subjective monitoring of the end-user experience (EUE) does.
Today's Application Performance Management (APM) tools employ EUE monitoring so pre-migration baselines and post-migration SLAs are based on what matters: the subjective quality of user experience. The added benefit? APM identifies and resolves problems more quickly than component monitoring tools. This shields server migration projects from costly extensions and infrastructure overlaps by accelerating problem identification and resolution.

eBook How to do More with Unified Communications_Lead NurtureMichael Kowalski
The document discusses how unified communications (UC) can integrate various communication tools like phone calling, video calling, screen sharing, instant messaging, and file sharing. It explains that while these tools provide value individually, there can be challenges with a lack of integration. The document promotes a UC solution from MegaPath that combines these tools with features like mobility, conferencing, transcription, and management tools. It argues that UC can improve productivity and reduce costs compared to maintaining separate communication applications and services.
Unified communications aims to integrate different communication methods like phone calls, emails, video conferencing into a single interface. This makes communication more efficient by allowing users to seamlessly switch between different tools without changing applications. It also helps reduce costs by integrating various communication services and enabling remote access. While unified communications provides powerful solutions, managing multiple disconnected communication systems remains a challenge for businesses.
Whether you are thinking about deploying a cloud, premises or hybrid approach to communications, there are a number of factors you should consider. There are pros and cons of each approach, so we will start by evaluating the line items that make up the bulk of the expense. In a world driven by software and communications technology, it’s no surprise that the software expense.

Net present value (NPV): The present or current value of (discounted) future net cash flows given an interest rate (the discount rate). A positive project NPV normally indicates that the investment should be made, unless other projects have higher NPVs. Present value (PV): The present or current value of (discounted) cost and benefit estimates given at an interest rate (the discount rate). The PV of costs and benefits feed into the total net present value of cash flows. Payback period: The breakeven point for an investment. The point in time at which net benefits (benefits minus costs) equal initial investment or cost. Return on investment (ROI): A measure of a project’s expected return in percentage terms. ROI is calculated by dividing net benefits (benefits minus costs) by costs.
