Customers Already Seeing Benefits of a Converged Experience “Replacing those PBXs, that’s going to save us millions of dollars because we have PBXs virtually all over the world… We have reduced our travel budget by 10 percent, you’re looking at over $500,000 a year savings… We expect to reduce our long distance telephone calls by that same amount, you’re looking at over $230,000 a year in savings.” Bill Johnson Chief Information Officer Stoneridge “Office Communications Server offered all of the features we needed out-of-the-box without requiring additional licenses. That, plus the interoperability with Office 2007 and Office SharePoint Server and the ability to click to dial from these other applications, was what sold us on Microsoft.” Kevin Rice Global Network Architect A. T. Kearney “We were spending more than a million dollars a month in our conference bridging. We are not spending anywhere near that today and expect to be saving across the board with the unified communications suite in the neighborhood of nine to ten million dollars per year, just in our enterprise costs.” Joe Hamblin Manager of UC for Client Services Sprint Nextel >> >> >>
