Next-Generation Unified Messaging
The Issue
For some, migration to unified messaging is a key component of VoIP plans. For others, voice messaging replacement has a new urgency and is being addressed separately. Many factors lead to this renewed interest: obsolescence of legacy voicemail systems, e-discovery and compliance rules, and the need for new capabilities to support remote workers. Finally, enterprises are looking to reduce the cost of managing complex disparate systems assembled by distributed purchasing or acquisition of other businesses.

REVIEWS
Ubuntu's deep software catalog, focus on usability and active community combine with long-term support to put desktop Linux's best face forward.
Review: Likewise Enterprise and its open-source sibling, Likewise Open, enable administrators to manage Linux, Macintosh and Unix machines through Microsoft's Active Directory and Group Policy.
Review: Firefox 3 should be welcome both for its many small usability improvements and for its under-the-covers Web rendering engine and security enhancements.
Review: OpenOffice.org 2.3 sports a nifty set of feature improvements, but the suite's sweetest features remain its low cost (free) and its strikingly broad platform support.
Review: The latest versions of fast-moving OpenSUSE, Ubuntu and Fedora make a strong case for Linux on the desktop, but there's lots of integration work to be done.
