Small businesses are those with the number of employees between 5 and 50. These businesses require IP telephony systems that are low-cost, easy to deploy, easy to use, and scalable. These businesses must face the challenge of managing the technology around data and voice communication systems without taking the focus off business.
Many growing businesses do not have the capital to keep up with the latest productivity-enhancing technologies, let alone the staff to maintain the systems. Until Cisco provided Unified Communications for small business, communications options had been limited to products and services that were too complicated, too costly, or not designed to work as a complete system. Now, Cisco delivers cost-effective voice, video, and data integration that is critical to the success of the small business.
