We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We use Extension Mobility and Jabber a lot with mobile remote access. In addition to video calls with Jabber, this greatly enriched communications between coworkers.""The Click to dial feature was one of the most important features for the customer."

"The most valuable features are call recording, call logging, and the stability."

Cons
"An improvement option could be to incorporate the Voicea solution with Communication Manager, allowing it to make a translation between different languages automatically in a conversation.""Some features take a lot of steps to configure, so having areas where a few clicks can configure a feature for a user would be nice."

More Cisco Unified Communications Cons →

"CTI, computer telephony integration, is a necessary component. It must be a part of the basic code. Currently, we need to use external connectors for call centers."
