"Thrupoint Fusion™, allows us to rapidly deploy UC applications over multi-vendor infrastructures to preserve existing capital investments. Not only can we now federate between multi-vendor networks to reduce communications costs, but we can also standardize on a single front-end client of choice for a consistent collaboration experience. Thrupoint Fusion™ mobility applications that leverage disparate enterprise platforms also help drive further cost efficiencies and improved productivity for employees."
Brent Kelly, Vice President and Principal Analyst, Constellation Research
"Like it or not, business communications are a heterogeneous mix of PBXs, UC desktop/tablet software, conferencing applications, and collaboration, some of which must extend beyond the enterprise boundary. These solutions have proven that they can accelerate an organization's business processes and improve productivity, but interoperability remains a significant issue. A product like Thrupoint Fusion™, that unifies best-of-breed multi-vendor platforms can help organizations maximize the benefit from their existing communications and collaboration investments; the fact that it enables mobile collaboration on the iPad with partners and customers creates an even more compelling value proposition given today's business mobile climate."
