Managing your communications overload
sponsored by Orange Business Services

In recent years, there has been a communications explosion. The sound of a busy signal on the other end of a phone line is becoming obsolete and, in fact, can no longer be tolerated in the fast-paced business world. Employees, partners, suppliers and customers need immediate access to the people who make their businesses go, and delays cost precious time and money.

There is no lack of technology to improve communications. The problem is that all the communications tools you use work independently, but must also work together. Today, it is essential to unify your communications so that your employees are able to reach the right person, the first time. It's a simple equation:

(# of communication tools) x (# of ways to communicate) = communications overload

Orange Business Services offers an integrated approach to your company's communications overload by providing a suite of collaborative solutions that exploits the benefits of unified communications to enhance individual, workgroup and organizational productivity. We eliminate traditional barriers and unify IT, telephony and human communications, enabling dispersed colleagues to work as virtual teams and reach decisions faster, saving time and money.

In his report "Unified Communications Strategies of Global Telcos," analyst Peter Hall of Ovum stated that, "Orange has the greatest clarity in articulating its global strategy." Hall further observed that "Orange has the broadest scope of UC solutions today in terms of vendors supported on a global scale," as well as "the broadest range of fully-managed offerings, with premise-based, hosted and hybrid models available for most of its solutions."

This whitepaper describes the growing challenges of unified communications and why Orange Business Services has the best solutions to meet those challenges. Download the whitepaper to learn more.
