OpenScape Unified Communications (UC)
Recognizing the need for teams and users to better collaborate and engage, the latest version of OpenScape UC includes a redesigned user interface to enhance the user experience and improve productivity. Leveraging the design principles used for Project Ansible—Unify's upcoming real-time collaboration platform—OpenScape UC is workflow- and collaboration-oriented to provide a more productive experience. The solution brings virtual teams together with rich federated presence, mobility, one number service, application plug-ins, and audio/web/desktop video conferencing capabilities. To further support mobile Anywhere Workers, OpenScape UC is now available for Android™ tablets and the iPad®, as well as iOS, Android, Blackberry, and Windows smartphones.
OpenScape Voice: Security and Operational Efficiency
Addressing the challenge of running the enterprise network smoothly and efficiently, the latest release of OpenScape Voice introduces key enhancements designed to increase security, reliability and interoperability. Highlights include the following:
- SIP Connect 1.1 compliance. This is an industry-wide recommendation developed by the SIP Forum ensuring compatibility between SIP-enabled platforms (such as OpenScape Voice) to VoIP Service Provider networks for improved interoperability. The recommendation has gained international support from BITKOM in Germany and NICC in the UK.
- SIPQ Version 2 provides additional support for multi-vendor networks where integration of third party PBX systems allows customers to leverage existing investment.
- Trusted business groups for hosted and cloud deployments, ensuring business applications are easily and securely partitioned by specific user communities.
- More automation for branch offices. A configuration capability automatically synchronizes user data, which speeds deployment and reduces configuration errors.
