Microsoft unified communications (UC) technologies help educators, administrators, and staff streamline communications, regardless of medium, platform, device, or location. Users can stay in touch and get work done wherever they are, using whichever device is most convenient.
Our unified communications solutions help you break down existing silos and extend your investments. They help:
Enable staff to get more done by giving them easy access to email, calendaring tools, voice mail, and instant messaging through multiple devices, so they can communicate with each other in different ways.
Make it easier for your staff to collaborate with colleagues at different campuses or schools, using audio and video web conferencing technologies.
Give staff the mobility to spend more time with students, parents, and colleagues.
Simplify ICT management by using a single technology architecture.
Solve real-world challenges
Microsoft unified communications can help you solve your communications problems by making it possible to:
Reduce infrastructure cost and consolidate third-party solutions.
Increase productivity by streamlining access to people and information across multiple modes of communication.
Provide the levels of reliability, availability, and scalability you need to manage your university or school.
Provide your institution with the security needed to help manage specific areas of risk.
Enable you to address compliance, retention, and privacy policy requirements for your institution.
Realize the benefits of unified communications
With Microsoft unified communications, you can replace conflicting systems with a single unified platform that:
Streamlines communication. Our solutions combine email, instant messaging, voice, audio, video, and web conferencing into a single system.
Integrates with the Microsoft Office system. Educators and administrators can communicate with click-to-call functionality and presence information from any Microsoft Office system application. They are probably already familiar with these applications.
Grows with your institution. Microsoft unified communications provides a software-based solution that works with your existing hardware investments and can grow as your institution does.
Helps increase security. Our unified communications solutions use encryption technologies to help make sure instant messaging, email, and VoIP messages remain secure and to help provide compliance across all communications.
