people communicate. Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2, one of the Microsoft UC
solution cornerstones along with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, is a leading option for organizations
looking for presence, instant messaging (IM), conferencing, and Enterprise Voice.
Over the last two decades, innovations have brought the world closer together and have given people
more ways to communicate with each other. These changes have brought productivity to new heights
and have created a more mobile, global, and “always-on” world of work. With this rapid transformation
in the business environment, people need to manage more communications in multiple places.
However, information workers and IT professionals struggle to manage multiple systems for
communications: desktop and mobile phones, e-mail and voice mail, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP),
instant messaging, and audio, Web and video conferencing. Today’s communications technologies work
well independently, but their disconnected approach leads to broken user experiences and expensive
management costs.
