You can gain significant productivity improvements for every person in your organization with new and enhanced solutions in Cisco Unified Communications that:
Extend presence, instant messaging, video, click-to-call, and web conferencing to more clients: People at their desks and on the move can reach others on the first try and escalate instant messaging sessions into phone conversations, video calls, or web conferences.
Enable impromptu voice, video, and web conferencing: Workers everywhere can have virtual "in-person" meetings that improve productivity and accelerate issue resolution.
Simplify voicemail and unified messaging management. Your company can achieve productivity improvements of up to 60 minutes per user per day.
Enhance personalization and productivity in every workspace with widgets: Workers can click to call directly from desktop applications and the web browser. They can also view, listen, and respond to messages without dialing into the corporate voicemail box.
Extend the productivity benefits of presence to customer interactions: Your company's contact center agents can use presence-enabled routing to link customers with subject matter experts, wherever they are in the enterprise.
