Unisys Voices Support for Microsoft's Unified Communications Vision
WebKnowHow Unisys Corporation announced its support for
Microsoft's vision for unified communications, which delivers
intuitive and seamless communications across email, instant messaging,
voice, data, video and Web conferencing. To bridge barriers between
disparate information systems and communications means, Unisys is
developing a comprehensive portfolio of consulting and systems
integration services along with outsourcing alternatives to enable its
clients to achieve unified communication. "As global competition continues to accelerate, Unisys will continue its focus on offering clients a portfolio of IT services that will enhance workforce communication and collaboration to enable better decisions to be made more quickly -- resulting in more flexible and proactive enterprises," said Jim Boak, vice president, Microsoft and Intel Strategic Alliances, Unisys. "As part of a longtime alliance, we continue to work with Microsoft to develop this services portfolio to assist our clients with defining and deploying their unified communications strategy on a global scale to facilitate communications anytime, anywhere, and on any device." Unisys said that longstanding alliance with Microsoft, along with its experience in large-scale systems implementations with Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Windows 2000 and telecommunications solutions for both large government entities and enterprises, offers real-world evidence that, together, both companies can jointly deploy and manage the Microsoft platform and unified communications solutions to deliver secure business operations for clients. Through this collaboration, Unisys will work with its clients to create a cost-effective communications infrastructure that will better connect people, information and business processes through integrated technology. Further, Unisys will work with clients to develop a long-term roadmap for them to improve their existing communications infrastructure providing solutions for messaging migration and consolidation with Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007, and collaboration and business intelligence with the Microsoft Office system and Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003. The end result is that Unisys helps lower the client's risk for long-term transition and migration to a converged and secure global communications platform. "We expect that IT services innovators and leaders like Unisys will play a key role in the acceleration of implementation, deployment and adoption of Microsoft's unified communications platform, while enabling clients to lower the overall risk and total cost of ownership," said Eric Swift, senior director of product management, Unified Communications Group at Microsoft. "Microsoft's vision for unified communications enables our industry partners to deliver innovative communications with revolutionary economics. We look forward to continuing to work with Unisys to help our customers gain the competitive advantage made possible by unified communications." |
