The Challenge

The dynamic work environments are made by people who are constantly moving, and virtual machines that are in different time zones. This makes it difficult to reach an expert and/or reliable information; that is why you need a solution that allows communication from any device, anywhere, that it is easy to use, with high voice and video quality, which allows rapid user adoption, that integrates seamlessly with the applications they use every day, and that is managed through a single interface to simplify deployment and accelerate the return on investment (ROI).

To do this, Polycom and Microsoft provide an end to end unified communications solution (UC) for voice and video, with the purpose of connecting people from any device, anywhere. Your employees can collaborate with someone in real time, Microsoft Lync® provides information in e-mail and business applications such as Microsoft Outlook®, and Microsoft SharePoint®, allowing users to start the conversation without leaving the application. This also allows them to collaborate with virtual teams of colleagues who are inside and outside the "firewalls" in places like client offices, hotels and even from their homes. Polycom solutions extend the benefit of Microsoft Lync® and allow voice and video collaborative experiences that are highly scalable and secure in multiple environments beyond the house, the office, the meeting rooms, the shopping malls, all within the family of Microsoft Lync®.
