Avaya Aura for Unified Communications

Avaya’s unified communications solutions help companies to increase employee productivity, improve customer service and reduce costs by integrating multiple forms of communication - including telephony, e-mail, instant messaging and video.
UC often means different things to different people. To most, it encompasses the convergence of fixed and mobile telephony, and includes soft phone interfaces too.
Peer to peer and group conferencing, such as voice conference bridges, desktop video conferencing and telepresence, as well as web conferencing, are all components of UC. Messaging such as voice mail and email, plus instant messaging is included, as is the overall concept of ‘presence’.
And once all of these forms of communication have been integrated, the next opportunity is to transform business processes by embedding communications into those processes to enhance productivity, efficiency and customer service still further - with the phrase "Communications Enabled Business Processes" being adopted.
