Knock knock. Is anyone home?
Well... while you were gone, working on better media quality, adding ports to your MCU or just trying to integrate your UC offering with some other UC offering you prefer to call "legacy," the world has changed.
The consumerization of IT, combined with the rise of mobile and remote workers, has created video conferencing demand on small screens like PCs, smartphones, and tablets that workers use in their everyday jobs. IDC, for instance, forecasts 1.2 billion mobile workers worldwide by 2013, or approximately 35% of the global workforce. With this new landscape comes a new challenge: how to effectively collaborate and boost productivity in an increasingly mobile world.
Technology trends such as datacenter virtualization, cloud computing and UCC are fast becoming a viable way to drive efficiencies and benefits into the workplace. These three elements present a powerful proposition for a new workplace where UCC, operating entirely in the cloud, can drive a consistent communication experience across locations for every user.
