OCS and Sametime Interoperability
IBM Lotus Sametime and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 are the two most widely deployed premises-based enterprise unified communications systems.
But today organizations are faced with two very unappealing choices: Rip and replace the incumbent UC solution or implement vendor-specific "islands of Unified Communications” within the organization.
Furthermore, some companies need to interwork with the UC platforms used by their business partners or customers, so a single vendor solution is out of the question.
Covergence has the Solution
Covergence can unify your Unified Communications.
The Covergence Collaboration Gateway (CCG) delivers controlled, secure connectivity between Microsoft OCS 2007 or Microsoft LCS 2005 and IBM Lotus Sametime 6.5 or greater, allowing users from different organizations – even different companies – to work together as if they were served by the same UC platform, enjoying shared presence information, instant messaging and other features.
Flexible Pricing
While some enterprises are looking to preserve investments in incumbent UC platforms, others need a gradual migration path to a new system. Covergence addresses the needs of every organization by offering CCG as a perpetual license or as a subscription service -- a flexible pricing model to meet every organizational plan and budget.
