LiteScape Technologies, Inc. (www.litescape.com), a leading developer of unified communications applications, will demonstrate its OnCast unified communications solution at the Cisco Networkers show (booth #332) today through July 26th in Anaheim, CA. LiteScape OnCast is the only application available that tightly integrates WebEx's on-demand collaboration services with Cisco's IP telephony systems to dramatically simplify the process of collaboration. "The challenges of integrating multiple business and communications applications are slowing enterprise adoption of unified communications," states Nora Freedman, Senior Research Analyst, Enterprise Networking at IDC. "Solutions that can ease the hurdles between tying formerly independent applications into a single user experience will accelerate this market."
LiteScape OnCast tightly integrates WebEx Meeting Center with Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco IP phones. OnCast allows users to seamlessly move between the interface and device of their choice to schedule, launch and join WebEx collaboration sessions with one touch"”making WebEx collaboration simpler and easier to use than ever before. With OnCast, users can schedule or join meetings instantly from their desktop, Microsoft Outlook or Cisco IP phone. When it's time to join a meeting, OnCast automatically dials and validates a user with the appropriate audio conferencing bridge using their Cisco IP phone. Simultaneously, OnCast launches a web browser on the user's PC and automatically joins the web collaboration portion of the conference.
"Our customers are increasingly demanding UC applications that help them tightly integrate their communications systems with their business applications to optimize business processes and improve productivity," says Kayvan Alikhani, LiteScape's EVP of Product Management and Development. "By integrating Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Cisco IP phones and WebEx, OnCast greatly simplifies the overall process of collaboration and makes it a much more compelling and productive experience for all involved."
In addition to integrating Cisco with WebEx, LiteScape OnCast provides the foundation upon which organizations can securely integrate all of their business applications with their Cisco communications infrastructure. LiteScape OnCast bridges the gap between corporate data, collaboration tools, desktop PCs and Cisco IP phones to create a seamless communications experience. The power of OnCast lies in its ability to integrate organizations' Cisco Unified Communications Manager with a range of critical business applications including Microsoft Active Directory, Microsoft Outlook/Exchange, IBM Lotus Notes, Salesforce.com and WebEx.
OnCast has been deployed globally by multi-national organizations across multiple verticals to improve employee productivity, reduce costs, optimize traditional business processes and increases corporate security. LiteScape OnCast is presently available directly through Cisco, WebEx or from LiteScape and its certified reseller partners.
