Actis to intro comprehensive unified communications to India

BANGALORE, INDIA: Actis Technologies is introducing comprehensive unified communications to India. Actis, with a 40 year legacy, is a pioneer of high-end, high-definition communication and collaboration technologies like 3D telepresence, HD videoconferencing, edge-blending, interactive training centers among others.

Actis will be incorporating Unified Communication Solutions with platforms like Microsoft Lync - an integration of Voice, IM, Presence, Video and Email, into its Enterprise Collaboration Solutions. This is a first-of-a-kind offering for the rapidly growing Unified Communication space.

Currently, Unified Communications is largely constrained to IT systems but now this offering makes it possible to seamlessly unify high-quality and face-to-face quality communication across your entire ecosystem which includes IT, AV (meeting and conferencing facilities) and Telephony infrastructure -- with maximum compatibility.

The offering will also enable for the first time, the integration of meeting and conferencing facilities to hardware platforms like Cisco and Polycom, thus preventing the obsolescence of the legacy hardware systems. Unified Communication Solutions uses the power of software to streamline communications between people and organizations, regardless of medium, platform, device, or location.

For eg., you could connect with an external organization from lync- to -lync, lync to a web platform or lync to an external messaging service. Actis also provides a Room Scheduling system along with the UC system which is an important piece of the UC puzzle. Room Schedulers ensure that room bookings are managed without conflict, making life simple for facility management teams.

This is also available for a demo at the Actis Experience Centre, where it has been deployed for the benefit of client who wish to see a proof-of-concept. Unified Communications is in its nascent stages in India but adoption is gaining momentum rapidly
