Abstract
“Deploying unified communications may look like a luxury in these
recessionary times, but enterprises can take steps on the migration path
towards unified communications that bring immediate cost savings.”
Margaret Hopkins, Analysys Mason Associate.
There is a growing consensus that enterprise communications is moving towards
a unified communications (UC) endpoint, at which voice, email, instant
messaging and video are linked to each other and to enterprise productivity
applications. Microsoft is now aggressively marketing its OCS platform and
this has brought UC into the mainstream. However, enterprises typically start
towards UC from the position of having a complex legacy infrastructure,
including PBXs from multiple vendors, separate email and conferencing systems
and, often, widespread unauthorised use of IM. UC functionality integrates
existing voice, email, and messaging infrastructure, both fixed and mobile,
and builds on platforms such as Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Notes, as well as
on SIP PBXs.
This report examines the competing claims of different types of vendor to
provide the ideal starting point for deployment of UC, and considers possible
migration paths and styles of UC architecture, with particular emphasis on
fixed and mobile voice systems. It identifies the first steps that will offer
quick wins for most enterprises as they look to cut costs while aiming for a
strategic move to UC. It provides forecasts of the number of users and of
spend on TDM, VoIP and FMC services for business voice in France, Germany,
Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, the UK and Europe as a whole to 2014 for
organisations of 20 - 500 and 500+ employees.
