Four of the five customers interviewed placed a high value
on integrated end-to-end unified communications solutions,
and made unfavorable statements regarding multi-vendor
deployment complexity. To these customers, integrated voice,
video, web, instant messaging, and mobile communications
from a single vendor are necessary to gain desired levels of
efficiency. Even seemingly small features, such as user option of
phone or PC headset and consolidated scheduling of audio and
video conferencing, were expected to produce strong benefits.

the market, and into the Cisco broad collaboration portfolio
(Figure 2), bodes well for this first release of the on-premises
WebEx solution.

With a single UC&C vendor, we get a common user
experience, streamlined administration, and one
place for support, which is far better than a range of
products from different vendors.
