With the proliferation of communication devices and methods, it is all too easy for business to lose control or end up with hugely inefficient processes and duplication. Sensible and effective unification of these processes enables business to communicate, collaborate and work much more effectively (with colleagues, partners, suppliers and customers).
By 2010, 80% of businesses that deploy unified communications-enabled business practices will have acquired significant competitive advantage because of them. (Gartner Group May 2006).
