Microsoft Office Communications Server, promises to bring VoIP telephony, instant messaging, conferencing and presence under a single PC-focused roof. Utilising Microsofts “VoIP as you are” strategy, it may be that OCS compliments your existing PABX infrastructure.

The ability to see the status of others or contact them from any Microsoft application e.g when reading an email, see the status of the sender and click to call or instant message them. Presence enables real-time status of employees (based on calendar information, login/activity status, and user preference) to be displayed across the organisation.

OCS delivers streamlined communications for users so they can find and communicate with the right person, right now, from the applications they use most. Without expensive infrastructure and network upgrades, you can deliver streamlined communications, including software-powered VoIP (voice over IP), Web conferencing, and enterprise instant messaging, while maintaining the operational control.
