| Delivering new intelligence in Communications The Communications Dilemma. The hugely beneficial technology developments we’ve enjoyed over the past few decades have come with some not-so-welcome side effects. Thanks in large part to the vast array of available communication tools, today’s average corporation juggles 64 times more information than businesses of the 70s. And yet, the management of that information is more critical than ever. These conflicting realities drive the cost of doing business ever higher. Not only are we juggling more information, we’re juggling more devices—office phones, cell phones, PDAs, laptops, pagers—the list goes on and on. And with all those devices come multiple interfaces, multiple passwords, multiple logins, multiple attempts to connect—multiple headaches! While existing applications offer some relief, they do little to address the need for human interaction and access to shared information in real time. Until now… Siemens is turning enterprise communications on its ear with the announcement of OpenScape. OpenScape is a SIP-based software solution for real-time communications and collaboration. It provides workers with consolidated access to all enterprise communication resources such as voice features and services, email, instant messaging and multi-resource collaboration.
