2008 Unified Communications Magazine Excellence Award Winners

Unified Communications (UC) is now perhaps the most exciting fulfillment of the promise of convergence in communications. It not only unifies multiple forms of communications but also integrates communications, IT infrastructures and business processes to revolutionize the way people work and collaborate in any kind of organization, regardless of size. Given such a vast canvas on which today's vendors can paint, selecting UC products and services for inclusion in our awards lineup took considerable deliberation. Our winners span the entire breadth of the industry, from security and mobility solutions, to service creation and HD video conferencing/ telepresence solutions, as well as full-blown unified communications systems, be they hosted solutions or premises-based offerings.
