Unisys Employs Quintum’s Tenor VoIP Gateway in Service Offering for Customer Trials of Microsoft’s Unified Communications Technologies
30 Day Hosted Trial Service Gives Enterprises the Opportunity to Experience Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007, Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Live Meeting
EATONTOWN, NJ–(EMWNews – July 22, 2008) – Quintum Technologies, an innovator in VoIP
technologies and a subsidiary of Network Equipment Technologies, Inc.
(
Quintum’s Tenor VoIP gateway in its “unified communications hosted trial”
service. The service allows customers to test Microsoft Corp.’s unified
communications technology at no cost, including Microsoft Exchange Server
2007, Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007, and Microsoft Office
Live Meeting.
Unisys was selected by Microsoft for its deep expertise in developing
communications solutions on the Microsoft platform and its ability to
manage reliable enterprise-class applications. Similarly, Unisys evaluated
the Microsoft-certified gateway vendors and selected Quintum based on its
long term working relationship with Microsoft in providing support for
Office Communications Server 2007 in the Tenor line of VoIP switches and
gateways. The Tenor CMS (Carrier MultiPath Switch) was adopted because it
provided back-end support for the unified communications platform and had
the capacity to support a hosted platform.
Unisys developed, implemented and manages the hosted trial service in
conjunction with Microsoft. The program allows Unisys and Microsoft
salespeople to sign up to 20 accounts per customer to evaluate the latest
unified communications technology from Microsoft for 30 days, including
e-mail, calendaring, unified messaging, multi-party instant messaging, and
voice and video conferencing.
“This new service allows our clients to experience the power of unified
communications across their enterprises,” said Jim Boak, vice president,
Microsoft and Intel Alliances, Unisys. “We chose the Quintum Tenor for our
trial service platform because it was easy to install, provides excellent
voice quality and is very reliable.”
“The ability to try the service without needing to deploy equipment will
allow more companies to experience the value of unified communications,”
said Chuck Rutledge, Vice President of Marketing for NET/Quintum. “We are
pleased to be supporting this service along with Microsoft and Unisys.”
