Digital Disruption and Transformation - Our Latest Podcast

This sure is a big topic, and several of us with UCStrategies had a go of it on our most recent podcast. With all the busy-ness around Thanksgiving, you may have missed it, and it's certainly not stale-dated a week later.  

Nothing stands still in the UC&C space, and our collective thoughts will give you a pretty good update on what disruption looks like right now, and what you need to be thinking about. You can check out the podcast here on our site, and my commentary starts at the 10:32 mark.

VoIP webinar this Friday - "VoIP: More Than Just Cost Savings"

Been pretty busy lately, and I need to do a shout-out for my next webinar. I'm the featured presenter, and it's being hosted by VoIP News, and the registration page went up yesterday.

The webinar is this Friday - the 19th - at 1pm ET, and I'll be providing an overview of VoIP's history and why it is becoming so popular now, especially among SMBs. Should be a good webinar, and I know VoIP News is expecting a nice turnout - hope you can join us.

Pretty simple to sign up - here's the landing page to register, along with full details about the webinar.

VoIP-News Webinar Now Archived

The VoIP-News webinar I presented on the other day drew a lot of interest - a couple of hundred - and we certainly could have gone on beyond the hour we had.

If you missed it, or had to drop out early, the archive is now available - just follow the link here - and once you register there, you'll have access to the replay.

To give you a flavor of who we had on the call, here are the results of a poll question of the audience:

Are you planning to deploy a VoIP system in your organization?

Already have a VoIP system 35.8%
In process of implementing a VoIP solution 3.7%
Planning to implement VoIP 11.0%
Evaluating VoIP 23.9%
No plans to implement VoIP 25.7%

It's pretty much what I'd expect - some have VoIP, some have no plans, and some are looking into it. Overall, though, 3 out of 4 have VoIP on their radar, and that's the news that I'm looking to hear.

Reminder - VoIP News Webinar is Tomorrow

One more shout-out to register for the webinar I'll be participating in tomorrow. I'm the lead presenter for a webinar hosted by VoIP News and sponsored by Qwest. We'll be talking about strategies enterprises can follow to get the most out of their communications investments and technologies during a recession. It's a popular topic right now, and I'm looking forward to being part of this.

You can get more details from my recent post about this, as well as how you can sign up and listen in. Hope you can join us!

Upcoming Webinar - Communications Strategies for a Recession

Just a quick plug for a webinar I've been invited to present on, coming up on Wednesday, March 18. It's being produced by VoIP News, and is titled "Optimizing Your Communications in a Recession". The title is pretty self-explanatory, and I'll be joined by Qwest Business and ADVODA Communications.

I'll be presenting the independent analyst perspective on the various IP and SIP-based communications tools available today, as well as how they can be used for maximum benefit in tough times.

The webinar is free, and runs for an hour, starting at 1pm EST. You can read more about it as well as register here. I hope you can join us!
