Convergent Technologies
To implement convergent technologies, consultants require very specific skill sets, despite the catchall nature of the name. IT&C consultants have demonstrated their mastery of these skill sets over years of innovative and reliable implementations.
We can now take advantage of rapid gains in computing power by combining more forms of human communication through fewer pieces of hardware. The real challenge is not the technology but crafting the new possibilities into the best solution for your business needs.
Three basic media have been used to transmit sounds, images and symbols, either separately or in combination. These methods have been telephony, the various broadcast media and computer networks.
Businesses have had to choose from a dizzying assortment of devices and technologies to communicate in these disparate modes. With the proliferation of the Internet Protocol, all three media may be converged into one. It is not hard to see the tremendous advantage offered by a single delivery vehicle. Constantin Walsh-Lowe helps organizations realize the potential great savings and efficiencies of such a conversion. At the same time many companies are also looking for ways to preserve the value of older but serviceable gear.
Another challenge is to tailor the new possibilities to the client's unique business model and to determine when this convergence of technologies is practical for your organization. Our specialists can answer these questions for you while helping you prepare your company to integrate voice, data and media.
