Microsoft recently has released an entire suite of new enterprise-centric unified communications solutions. What’s different? Microsoft designed these services to work seamlessly within an enterprise’s (or SMB’s) existing IT infrastructure and it can be deployed without the complexity and cost of an IMS-based solution.

To further reduce deployment costs and complexity, Microsoft has developed these services to work in a hosted, multitenant environment. As a result, service providers are able to triple their business data revenue by working with Microsoft through its hosting partners. Beyond just offering FMC services wholesale, some hosting companies can provide your business with a turnkey solution, including business case, billing and migration tools and advice, and a portal to provision, manage and sell new, converged services.

In this Webinar, sponsored by xchange and Chinook Hosting, attendees will learn about:

• The bevy of Microsoft-based productivity and collaboration services available on a hosted basis.
• The capex and time-to-market savings they can realize by partnering with a hosting company to deliver such services.
• The new revenue that awaits from providing customers with integrated advanced services and capabilities, including FMC, CRM, IM, conference calling, find me/follow me and more.
