[cisco-voip] Exchange 2007 UM and CUCM 5.1

[Voll, Scott]

I would like to know how it stacks up against Unity 5.0.... I like the
feature that Unity does Voice to Text.  Does Exchange do that?

 

But I do like the calendar / contacts / etc of Exchange.

 

It will be interesting to see where M$ and Cisco go from here.

 

What is the stability of Exchange UM?

 

Scott

So when you say "Unity Dies".....you mean that this is a superior
replacement??

Here is a good place to start for feature lists and such:

However in answer to your question I believe Exchange UM supports most
of these features OOB.  From what I understand MWI isn't a standardized
feature across platforms and that is why it was left to a 3rd party to
develop an addon.

What about Directory Handlers and Alternate, Closed greetings etc.  Will
these functions also require 3rd party apps?

So, had an Exchange 2007 Unified Messaging test box and a CCM 5.1 box...


I created a SIP trunk to the Exchange 2007 box (with MTP) pointed a
route pattern at (call it the vmail pilot, but this is so much more than
vmail, it is hard to even suggest using that phrase any more)... 

On Exchange created a UM user, added his DN, created a PIN, added a UM
IP gateway (basically just name it and add the IP of CCM), selected a
dial-plan (tell it how many digits to expect)...

I dialed the pilot and Exchange answered and read me the name of the
user from Exchange (it is a CG voice, but it sounds very good) and went
right into Outlook Voice Access... 

OK, here is where Unity dies.

You do not have access to JUST voice mail, you also have access to your
Email, Calendar, corporate directory, personal contacts... It initially
tells you how many emails, voicemails and any upcoming calendar
events... You can have it read you your email (and it sounds pretty
good), you can reply (it sends a WMA file back to the person), you can
schedule meetings, look up users in the corp directory and then send
them emails... 

We set up the initial connection in about 2 minutes, set up the initial
Exchange user in 2 more minutes...


There is only one giant downside... no MWI. For that you need to buy a
third party MWI thing (Microsoft is recommending this: mwi2007.com
<http://mwi2007.com/> ), need info on their pricing, BTW...
