30. Integrate your voice infrastructure with your desktop. Give your users convenient access to their communications. Integrated and unified clients = Convenience = Productivity Enhance your desktop experience. Add messaging, presence and “Click to Something” for voice and video. Leverage the best of everything (you own). Make your users ridiculously mobile. Using the device or speech interface that fits their dynamic environment. Use standards to embrace Mobile devices: PDAs, notebooks, netbooks, iPads, Wepads, are inherently multivendor and multi OS. Standards based integrations enable viral device adoption. Mobility brings freedom. Enable telecommuting for convenience and emergencies. 1 1 2 2 3 3 3 Steps to realizing Unified Communications benefits As a bonus, you have created a disaster plan, A green initiative, and a more satisfied, flexible, virtual workforce.

31. Start by identifying a need, a benefit or a risk Productivity improvement (shortened Response times, process improvement) Cost savings (Shared office space, nimble processes) Business Continuity (Plan for the unthinkable) Do your research, talk to your peers, pick a great partner Don’t be led down an expensive path by a single vendor Carefully select a technology partner.. Sooner, rather than later Stop, take a good look at what you are doing What it will cost What it will change Then step back and look at the benefits Don't get caught up in the hype Don’t compromise something important for something cool Then get excited Users love being effective! Don’t believe everything you hear! 31 Navigating The Unified Communications Hype
