Unified communications

!
Unified Communications, makes it easier to communicate.


 

Business Benefits of Unified Communication
  • Make it easier for customers, with a single number, access to people and resources
  • Contact staff quicker through features such as joint ringing of desk and mobile phones, as well as find-me/follow-me functions
  • Makes it easier to increase response times with real-time and non real-time communications
  • More communication options, increasing effectiveness and efficiency of staff
  • Makes it easier for staff to make decisions with improved collaboration and information access
  • Reduced mobile and collaborations costs
So what is it? Unified Communications as a term covers a variety of technologies, however it can be seen as a concept which helps people initiate, receive and conduct communications, when where and with whomever they please, without learning multiple complicated technologies. It is essentially modular, so you can add any of the technologies to your system and continue to build onto it over time, so you have a scalable solution, without necessarily the need to rip and replace your existing systems.

Unified Communications takes separate technologies and pulls them all together into one solution, for example we currently have office phones, mobile phones and their individual voice mails, email, fax, instant messaging, audio/web and video conferencing; unified communications brings all of these together to make collaboration simpler and easier.

A single voicemail box, which is also delivered to your inbox can significantly cut down on time spent chasing. In addition a presence and availability tool, which allows you to see where staff are – i.e. in a meeting, in the office, working from home etc can reduce telephone tag. When this is coupled with a secure Instant Messaging functionality contacting staff can become a lot easier.
These are just some examples of the power of unified communications.

Mobility

!
Remote workers are becoming more common, with many people viewing the ability to work from home as a benefit on a par with an increase in salary.


 

However, staff working from home need to have access to their normal phones and office systems, through virtual private networks and remote working facilities. Telinet can help and advise on this.

Remote workers can be easily set up by providing a handset which plugs into a broadband connection. They will then be able to access the corporate directory, receive calls to their normal number and have free calls within the company.

Staff who are on the road a lot may benefit from a one number solution, where they publish a single contact number and their calls are routed to where ever they are – their deskphone or mobile, with the added benefit of a single voicemail box. Alternativley mobile twinning maybe more appropriate, where both the desk phone and their mobile ring at the same time.

Moving from locations may require a hotdesk and softphone capability, where a staff member can log into to any phone in any office location and have access to their feature keys and voicemail. Alternatively if they are moving from hotel, cafes and car a softphone which is driven through their laptop maybe more appropriate.

All of these solutions help reduce your telephone bills, as well as increasing availability of staff. To find out which would suit you Phone 07940126084

Green telephony

!
Green issues are becoming increasingly important and more of a focus for all businesses.


 

"IT Communications industry is responsible for 2% of global carbon emissions." Gartner – The same amount attributable to aviation

Telinet is a Mitel Premier partner, and Mitel is the greenest phone system available in the market place. In this section we provide a brief overview of the different environmental facets of the Mitel phone system.

"Telinet has a green focus on its work. We started electronically billing our customers mid 2007, reducing the amount of paper we generate within the business. We sell the greenest phone system available – the Mitel 3300. It has the lowest power requirements out of all of the systems.

One of the greatest growing areas of our business is remote workers. At Telinet we practice what we preach, with a quarter of our employees having home working functionality. This provides them with a greater level of work-life balance, and for each employee who works from home one day a week it prevents 834lbs of CO2 from entering the air.

With a recycling policy in house for our day to day waste, we also work closely with manufacturers to make sure all old technology is disposed off in an eco friendly and WEEE compliant manner. In addition with many of our customers we work with their existing equipment to maximise the lifespan of systems and reduce the quantity of new equipment required.

We are continually looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint even more and will be making further developments on this in 2008."
