Alcatel-Lucent Visual Collaboration Suite

Anyone, anywhere, on any device: Cost-effective, effortless, rich video collaboration

Alcatel-Lucent Visual Collaboration Suite2

Currently, collaboration is limited to sharing data while video conferencing is only about

high-quality images. For businesses struggling with their return on investment (ROI) for

unified communications (UC) and video conferencing, contextual communications must

be embedded in the business processes. With the enterprise-network transformation

underway, businesses are well positioned to take full advantage of their collaborative-

infrastructure investment, deploying multimedia applications to reduce costs, improve

efficiency and fully realize their ROI. These applications include integrating video into

the enterprise-communications infrastructure, making it simple to use and access, open

to all devices at any location, creating a seamless and effortless collaboration experience.

drivers for visual collaborationVisual collaboration is more than video conferencing. many factors compel a company to adopt video in the constant struggle to stay competitive and efficient while fully realizing their network-transformation roi:

• Cost-reductionrequirements:

¬ reduce business travel cost — airfare, hotels, restaurants, taxi $$$

¬ reduce operating expenditures (opeX), including network operating costs

•Workplacedynamicchange:

¬ increase virtual cross-functional teams across locations

¬ meet the challenge to keep people engaged and connected across dispersed and remote sites

¬Meetuserexpectationsanddemandforubiquitousvideo access in the workplace

• PressuretoimplementgreenITinitiativesanddeploymentsto reduce the carbon footprint

benefits of visual collaborationVideo complements Uc tools, enhancing the collaborative meeting experience through increased interactivity and nonverbal communication. Uc offers general benefits, but specific benefits are experienced when video is integrated into Uc: spontaneous communication — spontaneous nature of Uc (presence based by definition) makes video communications usable. it’s there, it works, so why not. now that i use video for every call, i get the benefits noted herein.

• Buildsstrongertrust,thekeytosmoothandeffectiveworking relationships, achieving it more cost effectively with high definition (Hd) video implementation

•MakesHDvideoreadilyavailabletoemployees,customers,partners and suppliers, among others, as a viable alternative to physical meetings, providing cost and time savings throughreducedbusinesstravelandhigher-quality communications
