Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is the transmission of voice traffic over a wide area network or the Internet using the IP signaling standard. Unified Messaging (UM) leverages VoIP to build enhanced IP-based software solutions that allow businesses to receive voice mail, e-mail, and fax messages in a single storage location that can be accessed via the phone or from a desktop browser or e-mail client. Unified Messaging can actually cost less than traditional telephone systems and enhances business communication.

Collaboration and conferencing services can be easily accomplished with the integration of UM and VoIP technologies. Business collaboration is accomplished via a collected set of IP tools that allow two or more users to interact, meet, and collaborate in real time over the Internet. These tools allow for whiteboarding, screensharing, document and speadsheet sharing along with many other capabilities. Web conferencing is accomlished by combining these software tools into a single web client. This web-based software allows for secure business meetings where members interact, collaborate, and view presentations from anywhere in the world via the Internet.
