Microsoft dumped for Linux by Avaya
OPEN SOURCE is on a roll with Avaya and its IP Office Release 6.1, as the communication systems specialist has dumped Microsoft and opted for Linux instead.
Officially Avaya IP Office Release 6.1 delivers a host of business collaboration and customer service enhancements to "improve ease-of-use and worker productivity" for SME workers, and provides "significant new efficiencies for businesses". In other words it makes it easy for you to phone your colleagues and anyone else.
The advance that using Linux appears to have delivered is that a single DVD can now be used to install IP Office Release 6.1. Avaya wasn't available for comment about how true this was.
Just don't lose the single DVD. One would imagine this is the only issue with this open source approach. Avaya reports that previously only multiple DVDs had to be used. It's a tough life in communications clearly.
