| Yes, ditto the great discussion.
We will be face with this issue within the next year or so.
We have a very stable (and expensive) Cisco network and we've been to Cisco seminars reviewing their demos, Unified messaging, etc.
We are also mainly IBM based servers and my boss just returned from Rochestor with the announcement;

IBM is now offering VOIP software from 3Com on its System i servers.
Big Blue made the announcement on Monday, though it and 3Com Technology Co. announced in the spring that they were developing some kind of Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) solution for the System i. The product allows end users to run all their VoIP services on one server rather than having separate IP telephony functions -- such as call forwarding and conferencing -- on separate machines.
Looks like we'll have a lot of research to do in the near future.
Gotta run, will check in tomorrow. |
