VoIP - IP Telephony White Papers
The Impact of Microsoft's Unified Communications Launch
Overview The Unified Communications (UC) market has been in transition for the past several years. UC has evolved from simple unified messaging and voicemail integrated into e-mail, to a market where all of a user's collaboration tools are brought together under one umbrella. UC has been the main visionary focal point for the VoIP market, led by companies such as Cisco, Avaya and Nortel. Microsoft launched its plans to enter the UC market followed by a July announcement detailing a partnership with Nortel known as the Innovative Communications Alliance (ICA). Most organizations have headed down the path of UC by first deploying IP telephony as the underlying foundation into which all other collaborative applications will be integrated.
