Unified Communications
Unified Communications can
quickly help organizations save costs by
reducing operating costs, consolidating
infrastructure, and leveraging human capital
more effectively. For example, a Unified
Communications solution can reduce toll costs,
cell phone charges, conferencing service fees,
travel costs, and meeting expenses.
Organizations can also reduce costs by
consolidating older communications systems into
a single, integrated platform.
Unified
Communications solutions can provide business
process efficiencies, cutting both the time and
labor spent on communications-based tasks and
also eliminating the communications-based
delays, duplications, and rework in business
processes. Organizations are seeing returns on
Unified Communications within a single budgeting
cycle, often within six months, and have the
potential to save $5 million dollars per 1,000
employees.
Benefits of
Unified Communications are:
-
Reduce travel expenses
by replacing in-person meetings with
immersive Web and video conferencing.
-
Reduce telephony and audio
conferencing charges with
built-in Voice-over Internet Protocol (VoIP)
and unified conferencing capabilities that
help lower long-distance charges and audio
conferencing minutes.
-
Lower real
estate and facility costs
by enabling more mobile work, freeing
employees from fixed desks or offices, and
increasing occupancy density in buildings.
-
Lower
messaging and voice mail costs
with low-cost storage and consolidation of
costly third-party solutions like mobility,
security, voice mail, and more.
-
Reduce the
cost of communications systems
by eliminating the need for expensive
private branch exchange (PBX), instant
messaging, and audio/video/Web conferencing
systems and by leveraging human capital by
supporting individual productivity,
workgroups and collaboration, and enterprise
governance.
