Fully adopting a UC way of working

摘要

The combination of new hardware and software communication tools has transformed simple voice telecommunication into a much wider, more richly featured, commercial solution - one which now includes video and data sharing capabilities, loosely collected together under the umbrella term Unified Communications (UI), although this is an ill-defined description. "With collaboration and teamwork at the forefront of any business efforts to remain competitive, unified communications encompasses a wide range of solutions designed to bring teams closer together. It enables people to exchange ideas more easily, work together better and be more creative," says Howard Lewis, Surface business group lead for Microsoft UK.
