Eastern; 12:30 p. m. Central; 11:30 a. m. Mountain and 10:30 a. m. Pacific).
IP Telephony and Unified Communications are essential IT services for corporate end-users. The convergence of voice and data, and communications applications creates new challenges for IT organizations. While the complexity of operations has increased, service level agreement (SLA) expectations are the same or higher. Taking a service management approach incorporating BSM and ITIL with supporting management technology can help IT deliver cost - efficient services to help ensure SLAs are met. This webinar will demonstrate how a service management framework can be implemented using Clarus IPC Plus+ (http://www. clarussystems. com/products/clarusipc. php) with its 4 pillars of management functionality: Automated Testing / Diagnostics, Performance Monitoring, Configuration Management and Business Intelligence.
Lamba and Roberts will also convey the essentials that enterprises need to be cognizant of to have a solid unified communications plan. They will also share some best practices citing real examples with concrete data to reflect cost savings and ROI.
“The enterprise relies on communication services as the gasoline that powers the corporate engine,” said Lamba. “Missing that one essential call – or not being able to make it – is a good way for a company to lose revenue. Monitoring and testing; testing and monitoring is a mantra that all enterprises need to deploy to mitigate risk and safeguard their unified communications systems.”
