Is the Avaya Video Collaboration Station Right for My Business?
Did you know that over 93% of communication effectiveness is determined by non-verbal clues? Words and vocal tone are an important part of communicating with one another but, they only tell part of the story. Visual clues are the key to helping fully understand the words we are hearing.
Organizations with remote employees or customers face a special challenge when it comes to communicating efficiently and effectively. Video collaboration lends a sense of humanity to remote communication that is not present with other devices, enabling better negotiations, fewer misunderstandings and smoother conversations.
The H175 is an enterprise level solution that is ideal for organizations looking for a cost effective way to equip employees with a single all-in-one device. As a collaboration platform, it is designed to meet the needs of a wide variety of employees, including those who work remotely. In addition, the Avaya H175 integrates easily with Avaya Aura, allowing customers to use their existing Session Manager and Communication Manager for SIP signal requirement support. With the Avaya H175 Video Collaboration Station, you can help simplify life for your employees and enhance the level of engagement, productivity and efficiency within your organization.
