3rd Party Applications

• UC apps. Ported on AXP

• UC apps inter-work with CME

• AXP offers hosting environment & IOS integration

Examples:

• Speech Capabilities at Enterprise Branches

Speech capability on ISR blade can be leveraged by multiple applications: IVR, Unity Express, Contact Center Express

• Branch Voice RecordingLight weighted recording/retrieval modules on ISR to support ad-hoc recording, to minimize WAN bandwidth and support recording survivability
