As attendees will learn, the adoption of a specific “survivability” strategy should not compromise the overall fax server solution’s scalability features and security attributes. This technical presentation will reveal the parameters of IP-optimized, fax “survivability” solutions for accelerating the ROI case for UC, bearing in mind today’s economic challenges.

Speed of communication is critical to success in today’s competitive and ever evolving global business world. That being said, in order to cost-efficiently, but accurately, process contracts, invoices, purchase orders and other documents, Fax over IP, or “FoIP,” is a solution that offers exactly what organizations need.

This presentation will educate attendees on the parameters of IP-optimized, fax “survivability” solutions for accelerating the ROI case for UC, bearing in mind today’s economic challenges.

In a recent interview, Nikolopoulos explained what “survivability” means.

“Survivability is a critical yet often misunderstood topic of discussion involving business decision makers and IT administrators/architects alike,” he said. “A concerted effort has been made to introduce fundamentals, both at the technology and business level. Some advanced technology topics are also reviewed focusing on various networking tradeoffs.”

The topic of fax survivability, including different strategies for achieving it, is also explored in a new application guide from Sagem-Interstar, posted to the company’s website. To access this detailed overview of Sagem-Interstar XMediusFAX’s survivability capabilities, click here.
