The two main tools we use for communicating - telephone and e-mail have traditionally existed in isolated silos, independent of each other. Over time some of these technologies have been integrated - voice and IP data network, voice messaging and e-mail , video and the IP data network etc. However until now nothing has integrated all these technologies into a single, easy to manage communications solution that can be used in a controlled business environment.

Unified Communications is a concept used to describe the coming together of devices and applications used to enrich how we communicate with each other, increase our productivity, enable more efficient team collaboration and to streamline business processes.

As an integrated solution Unified Communications can greatly increase the productivity of an organisation, allowing users to make decisions on how to communicate with each other, based on the detailed presence status of the person or people they want to contact.

Whether your staff are based in a single office or across multiple sites, even across the world, the combination of presence and IM can help improve productivity, drive business efficiencies and build a more agile organisation.
