Integrated Research, the Australian developers of PROGNOSIS IP telephony management software and Realtimepublishers, the leader in corporate sponsored ePublishing, announced the immediate availability of The Definitive Guide to Successful Deployment of VoIP and IP Telephony.

This new, comprehensive guide provides technical and non-technical professionals with practical insights into the specific steps they need to take to be successful with the implementation of VoIP and IP telephony.

Tips and highlights from each chapter will be offered through audio podcasts recorded by author Jim Cavanagh and syndicated via the Realtime Nexus Digital Library podcast series.

“In addition to complex technology challenges, voice communication has such a huge impact on organisational productivity, that a VoIP or IP telephony project must consider all operational, policy, security, privacy and management aspects of a company’s operation,” explains author Jim Cavanagh. “Though a shift to IP-based voice applications is inevitable, a smooth transition is not. This book will help ease that transition.”

The Definitive Guide to Successful Deployment of VoIP and IP Telephony includes the following chapters:

Chapter 1 – Forward … Into the Past!

Chapter 2 - The IP Telephony Lifecycle

Chapter 3 – Planning and Assessment

Chapter 4 – Design and Pre-Deployment Testing

Chapter 5 – Implementation and Migration

Chapter 6 – Ongoing Operations

Chapter 7 – Optimisation

Chapter 8 – Sweating the Details and Assuring Success

As exclusive sponsor of The Definitive Guide to Successful Deployment of VoIP and IP Telephony, Integrated Research offers access to the guide and podcast series at www.prognosis.com/ebook
