About Cisco Unified Communications Solutions by PBM IT - Call (888) 233-6471PBM IT Unified Communications Solutions are Cisco Gold Partner certified. Our staff is uniquely qualified to handle your Unified Communications needs. In 1998, networking equipment giant Cisco Systems got off to an early lead in the VoIP market after acquiring the CallManager product through the acquisition of Selsius Systems. This allowed Cisco Systems to introduce a packet-based voice system that competed with other traditional vendors, such as Alcatel, Avaya, Mitel, Nortel, and Siemens. Since then, these and many other vendors have developed their own proprietary VoIP systems in response to the growing demand for VoIP systems. Cisco Unified Contact Center solutions integrate workflow applications and enable a virtual contact center. Run voice, data, and video communications over a single, converged network with call-processing software, telephones, and endpoint devices. The transformation provided by the age of the human network will maximize human potential to address the challenges of today, and tomorrow, in unique ways. Unified Communications removes geographical boundaries while providing the social networking tools required to collaborate on important business challenges. Cisco unified communications will breathe inspiration, innovation, and personalization into organizations. Because of the expertise in network infrastructure, Cisco offers the best end-to-end IP Communications solution that reduces costs and streamlines processes. Cisco Unified Communications is an open architecture so it integrates with other industry-leading applications and a wide variety of endpoints. The open architecture has already allowed hundreds of technology development partners to deliver thousands of integrated applications. In our dynamic business environment, perhaps the most important benefit of Cisco Unified Communications comes from having a communications system that can change and grow on short notice and enable new capabilities for more effective business communications, employee mobility, streamlined business processes, and improved profitability. Cisco began developing IP telephony solutions in 1997. Today, Cisco is number one in worldwide enterprise voice and the leader in top IP telephony categories. IP telephony delivers an initial wave of business value to our customers by making it possible to (1) Consolidate platforms and reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) and telephony costs through toll-bypass, (2) Take advantage of underused network capacity by carrying voice traffic on the data network, accelerating network usage and maximizing ROI, and (3) Lay a strong foundation for advanced communications and collaboration capabilities. Cisco Unified Presence is a standards-based platform that collects information from multiple sources about user availability and communications capabilities to provide rich presence status and facilitate presence-enabled communications with Cisco Unified Communications and other critical business applications. By using Cisco Unified Contact Center solutions in its own contact centers, Cisco has increased customer satisfaction while lowering time to resolution and reducing operating costs. Cisco offers solutions for small and medium-sized companies as well as very large, multisite enterprise deployments, plus hosted or managed service environments. These solutions deliver (1) Skills-based contact routing, (2) Voice and video self-service, (3) Computer telephony integration (CTI), (4) Multichannel contact management over an IP infrastructure, (5) Inbound and outbound capabilities, and (6) Presence integration. Unified Communications applications lead to more effect effective communication. Beyond replacing a traditional channel for contacting employees, Unified Communications applications also enable smarter communication. Employees can consult the best method for reaching coworkers before even initiating contact, thereby improving the efficiency in their interactions with others. Previously, unified communications technology was only available to large enterprises – now it’s available to small and medium-sized businesses with the advanced technologies from Cisco. Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express is an integrated voice, video, and Web conferencing solution that helps medium-sized organizations realize the cost savings and productivity benefits of deploying conferencing over internal networks. The solution provides simple, powerful conferencing functions that are easy to deploy and manage and includes phone, Microsoft Outlook, and Web interfaces for setting up, attending, and managing meetings. Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express VT is a deployment option that is designed to extend the capabilities of Cisco Unified Communications Manager video telephony environments by enabling users to simply extend point-to-point voice and video communications to impromptu, multiparty voice, video, and Web conference. Cisco Unified Communications products take advantage of the intelligence embedded in a smart infrastructure, which is designed to carry any combination of voice, video, and data across the same links and through the same devices. It is also self-optimizing, self-protecting, self-healing, and application-aware, meaning system resources are allocated to maximize employee productivity and prevent downtime. Even a small or a medium sized business can derive many benefits from the Cisco Unified Communications system's ability to be easily enlarged when the workload and the need arises. |
