    In addition, Avaya Aura has two further applications designed to optimize its operating performance.

Secondly, Avaya Aura System Platform 6.0 virtualization technology covers Avaya Aura architecture and eliminates up to 80% of hardware when compared to the competition solutions. Consequently, it reduces management costs, and power requirements.
  • Avaya Aura Workforce Optimization (WFO): ideal for improving monitoring quality, since it allows to synchronize an agent’s audio and screen activity so supervisors can see the full scope of interactions. It also reduces costs thanks to a workforce management application that collects information and historical trends from a call center.

The Enterprise Edition will be available at the end of the year and will provide extended assistance for internal operators.

The first version of this solution is designed so that Octel users are capable of migrating to the new platform, maintaining their interface and incorporating new voice functions.

Additionally, it can be implemented as an Evolution Server for a smooth migration from a mix of H.323/TDM endpoints to SIP environments, and also as Feature Server for SIP-based voice and video. Lastly, the System Manager 6.0 provides a standard management system through Avaya Aura architecure, now extending to presence, conference and messaging services, making it easier to manage and handle all components from a central location.
