Cisco is Leader in Gartner Magic Quadrant for Unified Communications
By Kara Wilson, Vice President of Marketing, Unified Communications
Earlier this year Cisco took the #1 spot in enterprise voice and the #1 spot in enterprise telephony. I guess good news also comes in threes because, the recently published Gartner Magic Quadrant for Unified Communications* positioned Cisco in the Leaders quadrant. According to Gartner, "The Leaders quadrant contains vendors selling comprehensive and integrated UC solutions that directly or, with well-defined partnerships, address the full range of market needs. These vendors have defined migration and evolution plans for their products in core UC areas and are using their solution sets to enter new clients into their client rosters and to expand their footprints in their client bases in new function areas."
As a key piece of the Cisco collaboration portfolio, our UC system is helping companies such as Nissan motors improve productivity, reduce costs and speed products to market, and our new Cisco Unified Communications System Release 7.0 leads the market in ease-of-use, openness and interoperability, and total cost of ownership.
