<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Sorry to tell you this, but you <b><u>are
NOT correct</u></b> I’m afraid:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Cisco Attendant Console (CAC) is
end of life and unsupported on new installations of CM 7.x and above<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Cisco Unified Business Attendant
Console (CUBAC), Cisco Unified Department Attendant Console (CUDAC) and Cisco
Unified Enterprise Attendant Console (CUEAC) are the replacements for the new
EoL old CAC. <b><u>All of these options are “pay for” – there is no FREE
Attendant Console option</u></b>. These are the Arc Solutions OEM Consoles.
Therefore, there is a PER SEAT/PER CONSOLE license fee for any of the new
Attendant Consoles – referred to as CUxAC as the portfolio. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">List pricing for these consoles
(if memory serves me right is)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">CUDAC - $1,195<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">CUBAC - $2,195<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">CUEAC - $2,995<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Arc Enterprise Solutions Plus is
then available, and then beyond that Arc Enterprise Premium for Arc partners
(of which DD is one). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">For any of these options, a
physical server is required. The Arc portfolio supports VM, however TAC do not
support CUxAC in a Virtual environment today.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Let me know if you need any more
information on this – DiData are a recently signed fully fledged Arc partner,
and we’ll be doing a lot of education sessions, training etc with you over the
coming weeks & months to help you through this. In the meantime though,
drop me a line if you need any more info <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">However, the bottom line is NO –
this new Cisco Attendant Consoles are not free!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
