BT launches unified communications solutions

Communications provider, BT, has launched new unified communications and
collaboration (UCC) solutions and services, designed to help realise the full potential of its 21st Century Network.

The group’s 21st Century Network is the world’s first national end-to-end IP-based network. It will enable efficient delivery of the next generation of converged services.

BT’s new UCC products are designed to help enterprise customers increase their efficiency and productivity, allowing them to compete more effectively in the marketplace.

The solutions securely link a company’s voice, mobile and data services with the desktop, so that users can take part in almost any form of communication to anyone at any time.

BT partners with companies such as networking specialist Cisco, and software provider Microsoft, to help businesses improve communications and collaboration.

Companies have traditionally purchased IT and desktop applications separately from fixed network infrastructure and telephony. Mobile services have formed a third distinct group.

BT’s can now bring these areas together into a single networked IT services integration program, creating a unified communications strategy tailored for the individual enterprise.
