[cisco-voip] End of the PBX

[Tim Ritter]

I have been looking all over for a forum to ask other Cisco PBX people about
Microsoft and their PBX plans... this is the only one I can find that seems
right. I hope you will give me your opinions and not kill me for not asking
a technical question...

After reading this article it is obvious to me Microsoft intends to replace
the PBX. The timeline looks like 3 to 5 years before they are in a position
to fully replace the PBX and go head to head with the leaders of the PBX
industry.



My company is a MS house and this type system will gain a lot of interest
especially since it is "free", not free as in free beer but free as in you
already pay for it in your Microsoft CAL enterprise licenses so why not use
it and decommission the Costly PBX...





Your thoughts and sugestions about how to combat this...
