Cisco Unified communications improve productivity and help connect employees and customers with the information and expertise they need in real time. The Cisco Unified Communications system of voice and IP Communications products and applications helps organizations communicate more effectively by helping them streamline business processes, reach the right resource the first time, and increase profitability. The Cisco Virtual Office is designed to provide secure, rich network services to staff working beyond the traditional corporate office, including teleworkers, full- and part-time home office users, mobile contractors, and executives Open communications systems have to power to revolutionize and level the playing field, enabling the communication of innovative ideas from any level of the organization. Embedded in the Cisco Intelligent Network, the Cisco Unified Communications applications are network-aware in that they seek out the network services they require for example, an IP phone retrieving the proper settings for power or quality of service (QoS). At first glance, it seems that without the PSTN infrastructure the cost justifications for VoIP are simple. While PSTN usage can be reduced considerably, it cannot be eliminated totally since the PSTN must handle call overflow and any calls not destined to the remote sites. Also, the extra voice over IP traffic may cause an increase in WAN bandwidth. The cost for this extra capacity will have to be subtracted from the savings achieved from reduced PSTN usage. The step-by-step cost justification example below can be used as a model for other network integration projects. Companies using integrated voice and Web conferencing reported a 30 percent reduction in conferencing expenses (by making integrated conferencing capabilities available in-house and on-network) and an average savings of $1,700 per month in travel costs. Cisco industry-leading routers and switches form an intelligent, secure network foundation for unified communications. In addition, Cisco offers a comprehensive suite of security products and features for unified communications.

The Cisco integrated unified communications system can be more secure than traditional PBX systems.
