Microsoft Makes Available New Edition of Communications Server
Microsoft debuted the most recent version of Office Communications Server, Microsoft's platform for streamlining presence awareness, IM infrastructure, remote conferencing, and Voice over IP. The newest edition of Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 includes improvements that offer IT managers more flexibility for supporting their communications system efficiently while providing an extensible platform for collaborative work activity.
To reduce expenses, increase productivity, and enhance teamwork, the latest edition of Microsoft Office Communications Server allows phone conferencing to eliminate costly outside services with an in-house audioconferencing bridge that is administered along with an organization's existing communications environment. Office Communications Server 2007 Release 2 also now features desktop sharing, which allows users to share their desktop transparently and launch calls and cooperate with colleagues outside the organization on Windows PC, Macintosh, or Linux computers via a Web-based connection. The latest release of Office Communications Server 2007 also enables geographically dispersed teams to work together by taking part in theme-based discussions that persist over time. This tool supplies participants with a list of all active discussion sessions and themes, automatically backs up chats in a format that meets auditing requirements, delivers utilities to look through the complete history of chat on a given topic, and offers filters and alerts to notify people about new posts.
the latest version of Microsoft Office Communications Server also incorporates improved support for voice and mobile workers. The innovative attendant window permits receptionists or team secretaries to manage calls and conferences for associates, establish processes to route calls, and handle higher volumes of incoming calls via a user-friendly interface. A new Session Initiation Protocol trunking feature allows businesses to cut costs by establishing up a direct VoIP connection between an IP phone service supplier and Office Communications Server without requiring in-house gateways. In addition, Office Communicator Mobile functionality now includes more device platforms including the Motorola RAZR, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile.
