Microsoft thinks they’re a VoIP player
Posted by admin in Industry and Business, tags: ibm voice over ip, ibm voip, lotus middlewareI was reading an article here that seemed to tout IBM and Microsoft as the future of VoIP. I may be a bit bias, being a Cisco man myself, but I have taken the time to go to Microsoft’s Virginia campus and look at their latest product and to be honest, I’m not impressed. Office Communication server is simply an IM server on steroids. I wonder how many people will pass on Cisco, Avaya, or Nortel – tried and true PBX / VoIP providers, and instead, get Microsoft’s first generation software only solution, simply because they believe “it’s Microsoft, and we won’t have to learn the GUI”.
