Hi Matt, Alastair & Daniel,
thanks!

Looks like the deployment choices doesn't change much since OCS days except
the additional of VCS option now only.
For presence, seems like there's this product but I'm not sure it is 1 way
or 2 way sync. Seems like UCM to Lync only.

Jabber is a fantastic application which client is using now. However, when
it comes to Jabber on mobile via expressway. It is lacking of security
measures in place.

The client I have is very concern about identify theft for higher
management. Therefore, single factor authentication is not sufficient. They
wanted every client authenticating via expressway to be MDM managed. This
is not available today and SFB apparently have a lot of 3rd party
applications doing this. One of them is skypeshield which I found online.

Jabber for everyone users are able to use expressway for free right? I saw
on other threads here. Someone answered yes.

Regards,
Ki Wi
