Microsoft Introduces New Version of Office Communications Server
Microsoft made available the R2 edition of Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007, Microsoft's solution for unifying presence awareness, instant messaging, teleconferencing, and IP-based calling. The latest edition of Office Communications Server includes improvements that offer IT managers additional flexibility for maintaining their communications system effectively while providing an expandable architecture for collaborative work activity.
To lower costs, increase efficiency, and support teamwork, the latest edition of Office Communications Server 2007 allows phone audioconferencing to eliminate costly outside services with an in-house conferencing software bridge that is administered along with the existing communications environment. Office Communications Server 2007 also now features desktop sharing, which enables users to share their desktop seamlessly and launch calls and team up with others external to the organization on PC, Macintosh, or Linux-powered computers through a Web-based connection. The latest edition of Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 also allows geographically scattered groups to work together by participating in topic-based discussions that extend indefinitely. This application provides users with a list of all available discussion rooms and topics, periodically backs up chats in an XML format that meets compliance regulations, provides tools to look through the complete record of chat on a specific theme, and offers triggers and alarms to inform people of new updates.
the latest edition of Office Communications Server also includes improved support for voice communications and mobility. The new attendant console allows receptionists or group secretaries to control calls and conferences for associates, set up processes to direct calls, and manage higher numbers of incoming communications through a software-based interface. A new SIP trunking capability allows companies to reduce expenses by establishing up a straight-through VoIP interface between an IP phone service provider and Microsoft Communications Server without needing on-premises VoIP gateways. Also, Microsoft Office Communicator Mobile support has been extended to more device platforms such as the Nokia S40, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile.
