FOOTHILL RANCH, CA -- 08/05/08 --
Applied
Voice & Speech Technologies, Inc. (AVST) today announced that it has
teamed with VoiceCon Events to deliver an educational Webinar titled,
"Unified Messaging: Productivity Payoff Today." The Webinar will take place
tomorrow, Wednesday, August 6, 2008 at 2:00 p.m. EDT / 11:00 a.m. PDT.
The softening economy is challenging enterprise technology managers to make
investments with a rapid and assured return on investment, and chances are
such an investment is at their fingertips already: unified messaging.
This educational Webinar from AVST will highlight how unified messaging can
provide a payoff in end user productivity, and will also share a variety of
additional administrative and compliance benefits. Webinar speakers will
help attendees to understand how to select a unified messaging solution
that provides the needed functionality within an architecture that also
meets the requirements of an enterprise's network and budget. In addition,
Webinar presenters will spotlight the top five 'gotchas' that enterprise IT
management face when implementing unified messaging.
"This educational Webinar touches on two very important topics for
businesses today -- return on investment and employee productivity," said
Denny Michael, AVST's
Vice President of Marketing. "Our Webinars are designed to help decision
makers build a plan and map out a strategy to achieve their ultimate goal,
which is to roll-out Unified Communications in a controlled manner with as
few hiccups as possible."
The Webinar will be moderated by Eric Krapf, Co-Chair of VoiceCon Events
and Editor & Lead Blogger for the website No Jitter. The Webinar will also
feature Blair Pleasant, President & Principal Analyst, COMMfusion and Hardy Myers, AVST's
President & CEO. This panel of industry experts will share best practices
for deploying a UC solution.
The hour-long session will be interactive, with audience polls and ample
time allotted for Q&A from the audience. Attendees will leave the session
with an understanding of the challenges and benefits of unified messaging
and why they should consider, or reconsider, this productivity-enhancing
application.
