Reaping the benefits
Converge . . . and reap the benefits
The integration of communications tools such as voice, data and video on a single IP network is dramatically altering the way businesses operate. So why are many businesses still not cashing in on the multiple benefits IP convergence can deliver?
The benefits of embracing convergence in business communications has been greatly demonstrated in recent years, yet many businesses are still not cashing in on the numerous advantages this solution can deliver. Even mid-sized operations can reap the rewards convergence has to offer.
From technical efficiencies to productivity and financial gains, IP convergence can pay dividends on a number of different levels. The integration of communications tools such as voice, data and video on a single IP network is dramatically altering the way businesses operate.
Underpinning convergence is state-of-the-art fibre-optic network technology that delivers high performance IP-enabled services. In fact, when it comes to the power of convergence, the devices it enables are of secondary importance. Utilizing core infrastructure is critical to a successful convergence strategy.
Why converge?
By bringing together separate voice and data networks, you gain communications and economic advantages. First off, there is the simplicity that results from installing and operating just one network. Plus, the converged network means your communications operations function more efficiently, which translates into lower costs. In addition, convergence permits scalability, which means you can adjust your communications requirements to suit your organization's individual needs.
Naturally, to get the most out of a convergence solution, you will need a comprehensive and effective strategy that dovetails seamlessly with your organization's needs. Once that is accomplished, you are in a position to reap the benefits of your reconfigured technology.
Industry observers say that convergence can have a profound effect on an organizations' profitability and long-term viability.
Cost effective
One of the main advantages attracting businesses is that these new services can be delivered cost effectively. A key reason for this is that converged IP networks are simply less expensive to operate. For example, phone calls cost less when they are transmitted over high-speed Internet instead of dedicated circuits.
It has been clear for some time now that strategic, reliable communications deliver a competitive advantage and now convergence is taking that to the next level. Here are just a few additional benefits to convergence:
Convergence helps organizations break down communications barriers, boost productivity, and run business operations smoothly.
Using one communications backbone enhances the way organizations connect with employees, customers, and suppliers.
Security is built directly onto the backbone of the IP network.
Because of the effectiveness of its seamless and simplified architecture, convergence enhances innovation opportunities that can contribute to business growth and leveraging tactics such as collaboration.
As these examples suggest, IP convergence delivers a range of benefits. By connecting all their telecommunication services on a single network, organizations can add services to their existing ones without new infrastructure investments. And, by working with a strategic partner like Allstream, companies can effectively embrace convergence, develop innovative new services, and all the while closely manage the bottom line.
