solution as that would not meet its wide-ranging UC&C needs.
The installation was very easy and straightforward;
once we deployed the OVF, we had just one screen to
configure. And we were able to easily integrate CWMS
to our Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
We already have a fully virtualized data center, so
having a virtualized web conferencing solution is a
requirement for us.
Microsoft Lync doesn’t work well with physical phones,
a strong requirement for us, and they couldn’t bring a
full unified communications suite. We need more than
just instant messaging and soft phones.
Even small features, like password reset by users, take
the burden off of us so we can focus on innovation.

This beta candidate thoroughly tested CWMS and found
its performance to meet expectations. Due to security
requirements, the company will only be using CWMS for
internal employees with no outside attendees. It has more
than 200 Tandberg units in its UC&C environment and plans

The company had positive feedback on CWMS ease of
installation, system administration, and user interface, citing
multiple end-point support as important. Further, the security
features meet expectations for its internal deployment, and
cost decreases are expected from reduced travel.

WebEx can provide video or web meetings over
iOS, Mac OS, or Windows, which will be very
helpful for us to expand conferencing use to
our employees.
