Computacenter has rolled out £5m worth of unified communications (UC) gear at its Reading site and will use the deployment as a showcase for customers.
The corporate reseller says this will be the first opportunity for end users to see a range of UC technology from more than one vendor working together live. Vendors involved in the implementation include Cisco, Microsoft and Nortel.
Potential customers will be able to take a tour of Computacenter’s site to see how UC is used by each of the firm's business functions in a live working environment.

James Steventon, connectivity solutions unit director at Computacenter, said: “Companies have struggled to see the benefit of unified communications in the past. To date, most of the ‘unified communications’ projects that have been implemented have been point solutions from a single vendor, operating in isolation.
“It’s only when companies see multiple vendor technologies integrated together as an end-to-end solution that they really see the benefit of unified communications, and that’s exactly what our tour illustrates.”
