Cisco IP Communication Solutions
Plummer Slade offers IP communication solutions which utilize the cutting edge of IP voice technology. IP communication solutions offer signifcant cost and performance advantages over maintaining separate voice, video and data networks. The cost of a converged network can run 40-60 percent less than the total cost of ownership (TCO) of separate voice, video and data networks. Managing a single, unified network is generally easier, less expensive and requires fewer resources. Plummer Slade employs Cisco Certified Engineers and implements Cisco IP communication solutions.
In addition to reducing calling charges, IP communication solutions eliminate redundant PBX expenses - including hardware, software, maintenance, servicing and technician costs - by replacing the PBX system altogether. Since you are dealing with a single network, rather than three, management and administration costs are reduced as well. IP communication solutions support applications and devices that allow your employees to work more efficiently and productively. These include:
-
IP SoftPhone - A software-based appliance that enables "power phone users" to completely integrate their telephone functionality into their desktop or laptop PC. A high-resolution LED screen can be programmed to display information of key value to the user.
-
Unified Messaging - Users can access and manage all their messages at any time, from anywhere, using whichever tool (phone, PDA, desktop PC, or the Internet) is most convenient.
-
IP Videoconferencing - Allows employees at different sites to communicate more effectively. By reducing the need for face-to-face meetings, videoconferencing can also lower business travel expenses.
IP communication solutions are also more flexible and scalable than traditional communication systems. Adding new sites or users can be done much more quickly with fewer resources. Enabling voice and video for the planned addition of a new building or the emergency addition of a remote office can be done with almost no incremental effort or cost above installing the LAN/WAN infrastructure.
We can offer an IP communication solution based on your company's needs, as well as provide installation and training on the system's usage. Contact us to assess your telephone system needs or to learn more about the features of an IP communication solution.
