Unified Communications and Corporate IM
Corporate IM is quickly becoming the preferred vehicle for both internal and external communications with business partners, customers, and sales prospects. Advanced instant messaging technologies like Microsoft OCS, which embeds real-time peer-to-peer communications in the world of Microsoft Office and unified messaging, allow users to view the presence and availability of all their corporate IM contacts, at the moment of relevance. While documents are being viewed and projects are being managed, communication is channeled through one corporate IM application, for the ultimate collaboration.
Corporate IM through Public Clients
As corporate IM grows in popularity, the relevance of phone and email in the workplace is decreasing. More and more companies are discovering the value proposition of corporate IM, for increased productivity and collaboration, decreased bandwidth and storage costs, and assured compliance with federal regulations and e-discovery laws. Supplementing these unified communications tools with consumer instant messaging clients like AIM®, Yahoo!® and MSN® Messenger, can help your organization reach beyond Microsoft® OCS or Lotus Sametime® users, and communicate with the more than 600 million users of consumer IM clients.
Consumer-side public IM clients continue to be the most popular IM platforms in the workplace, creating numerous challenges for information and network security departments. Fortunately, Presensoft has developed a line of security tools that enable your organization to benefit from corporate IM over public networks, even if you’re already using Microsoft® OCS or Lotus Sametime®. Layering business communication and corporate IM can help you bring customer service into the 21st century, and allow your employees to start living in real-time.
When managed by Presensoft, public instant messaging clients that your customers use on a daily basis can be transformed into secure, compliant corporate IM tools, to fully connect you with your business community.
