Overview

Unified Communications brings together live communications, messaging and directory resources to provide integrated access to people and information. This unified information is presented to the user via the right device and media that is appropriate for the user's current environment.

SPS Unified Communication solutions and roadmap services enable your users to work more effectively from anywhere their (often changing) business needs require.

SPS will help you identify, design, implement and measure your UC solution, ensuring the benefits outweigh the costs.

 

Why should your business consider UC?

  1. Your Workforce is Changing
    • Shared office, Home office, Remote locations
  2. Work Effectively From Anywhere
    • Planned or Disrupted (HXN1, Weather, Strike)
  3. Corporate and Legislated Green Initiatives
    • UC can make a difference
  4. Enhanced Customer Experience
    • Be responsive to customers, always

Navigating the Unified Communications Hype

Don’t believe everything you hear.

Identify a need, a benefit or a risk

  • Productivity improvement (shortened response times, process improvement)
  • Cost savings (shared office space, nimble process)
  • Business Continuity (plan for the unthinkable)

Do your research, talk to multiple vendors, peers

  • Don’t be led down an expensive path by a single vendor
  • Leverage a partner… Sooner, rather than later

Stop, take a good look at what you are doing

  • What it will cost
  • What it will change
  • Then step back and look at the benefits

Don't get caught up in the hype

  • Don’t compromise something important, for something cool

Then get excited

  • Users love being effective
