Out of reach Unified Communications
April 9, 2010Scope:
Corporate IT can barely keep their existing networks up an running, much less integrate Data and Voice networks and keep them running.
Cause:
Vendors are not integrating with other technologies
Technologies don’t work as documented
Lack of trained or experience personal
M & A’s are leaving corporations paralyzed with fear of changing anything
Integrations are presenting higher and higher risk of exposures and disclosures
Limited vendors options due to the economy and M & A’s are leaving corporations with confusion and in most cases high costs
Oversubscribed networks
Overworked / Underpaid IT professionals
In-ability to monitor progress and technology effectiveness.
Lots of un-predicable costs
To much pressure to service desk organizations to keep up and support (move, adds and changes).
Recommendations:
Work with what you have in place, document, train and stabilize your network environment in general and expand your efforts after completely researching your options
