Masters of UC

Mobile UC apps take off

We've noticed substantial progress in the last six months on mobile unified communications: both telephony system and handset suppliers have added a wide range of features and we believe that infrastructure market has hit "critical mass" by providing users with a wide range of choices. So today we'd like to point those interested in shopping for a mobile UC solution to a free buyer's guide written by Brockmann & Company, a consulting & advisory firm serving enterprise, high-tech equipment and application vendors, and service providers.

This buyer's guide defines the availability of features for mobile UC from an array of vendors with unique target markets, channels and customers. The principal suppliers covered in the report include Alcatel-Lucent, Avaya, CounterPath, DiVitas, NEC, Nortel, OnRelay, Research in Motion, Siemens Enterprise Communications and Tango Networks.
