Provision devices that best meet the needs of users
With Office Communications Server 2007 R2, organizations can provision their users with devices that
meet functionality and price requirements. A key Microsoft goal is to bring software economics to
business communications. Microsoft has created a partner ecosystem for voice and video devices that
work well with Office Communicator 2007 R2 and Office Communications Server 2007 R2.
Organizations have many types of users: executives, managers, office workers, mobile workers, and
support staff. They all need to communicate with different people and in different ways, some of which
are well suited to traditional desk phones and while others are not. Office Communicator 2007 R2
enables workers to use communications devices that are best suited to their work needs and individual
preferences, including desk phones, corded headsets, cordless headsets, speakerphones, and
Webcams.
