<div>If you have 800 - 1000 phone you shoul dhave multiple exchange servers and one dedicated to the UM role according to microsoft design guides. So once again if you add the price of the additional exchange server license and now the additional x64 server hardware I bet you are not saving much money. </div>

<div>This does not take into account your specail state pricing. <br><br></div>

<div>well the School district loves Exchange for the voice portal vs the press 1 for this that and the other thing. unless you have a second server and unity 5.x which adds $$$ also. especially on a small SD size of 800-1000 phones. and the pricing between UM and VM licenses on Unity is huge. </div>

I also think that OCS will be a product that is going to very good after a few years. The thing is I am installing these products today and must deploy the best solution for my customers and a hacked together system that saves them 10% is not in my best interest.

So once you purchase the correct exchange CAL, and the MWI software it may not be that much more to just purchase Unity. I don't think Exchange 2007 can compare to Unity in the number or features it has.
