Do You Really Need Unity in Your Life?
In our world today, there is a constant urge to stay in touch. Cell phones,
satellite pagers, even mobile television systems on campers keep us constantly
in the loop. This then begs the question: Is voice mail really all
that important to your site?
Before answering, first consider what resources are needed to support
Unity. There’s a new Microsoft Exchange v5.5 mail server, not to
mention the Unity software. Lastly, you’ll need an existing Windows NT
domain and DNS server to support the Unity Exchange server. To run all
this, you’ll need an experienced Exchange administrator as well as
someone who knows NY domain management and DNS services.
Though this sounds like you’ll need two specialists, you might be surprised
to find your existing network engineer knows enough to handle
all these tasks.
Keep in mind that an investment in VoIP (and AVVID solutions in
general) represents an investment in people as well as technology. When
you jump in, there’s no climbing out without a sizable loss of capital
investment. Still, the benefits of having your voice messages e-mailed to
you anywhere in the world just might make your life cheaper and easier
to manage, which is exactly what Unity can do for you.
