RE: microsoft lync 2010 Vs Call manager

You do that, and I'll hit "snapshot" restore from vcenter.

I'll race you!

Isn't that why you get the DVD's and have a database backup? :)

Most of the time it doesn't take a call manager "virus" on the newer Linux RH

the password the wrong way and the box needs to be RMA. Try it.

I would have had better luck recovering from an "rm -rf /*.*

Ya know... I'll say the same thing about that as I did about Cisco's

CallManager when it was on a Windoze platform....

If you stick your voice servers onto a network accessible to/from the

Internet, and don't pay attention to things like that, you deserve to

have that machine get a virus!

There are plenty of solutions out there even outside of sane network

design that will help out. So don't go using that as an excuse, it's a

stupid one. Ranks right up there with the "smart" people who believe

that Mac's don't get viruses.

MS will be hosted on Windows machines which can be effected by virus easily

You know something John?

So save 60% of the costs....

I think I would go with Microsoft if I was your boss.

1. Do you need special codecs?

2. Third party apps do - many lawfirms are already using FEAC with MS OCS

2007 R2.

3. MS has contact center, Team Viewer and Roundtable which are FAR better

than webex...

Please read http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/41653

4. I think you need to read up on Microsoft a little more -

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb894539%28office.12%29.aspx

The Cisco product is great for very rich companies that don't want the

hastle of co-mingling the Server and the Voice worlds - but any sane company

would use the

MS solution for no other reason than $$$.. 400 users with UCM is about

$250,000 (not including PoE switches)

I just priced this out in November 2010.

Subject: microsoft lync 2010 Vs Call manager

Hi to everyone,

i am searing since a week for a good reason to convenience our management

to

go with call manager instead of Microsoft Solution, but i couldn't the only

thing which i found is the following

1-MS doesn't support special type of video codex

2- MS doesn't support the Forced Authorization Code

3-MS doesn't offer contact center solution, and also webex

4-MS solution is layer 7 application which deals with voice like any other

programs it will not treat it as priority traffic !!!

On the other hand

MS will give us

1- unlimited number of softphones which will reduce the cost of the

comparison

a lot

2-MS will support Voice messaging, auto attended feature as well

we are planning to go with 400 users, but till now i cannot convince the

management and convince myself regarding MS product.

If you can help me to judge which product is better and why that will be

great.

Thx,
