This software product is aimed at power users who communicate frequently, managing multiple calls and ad-hoc conferencing. It provides access to Communication Manager features including softphone capabilities and ad hoc audio and video conferencing. Users can click to initiate emails and instant messages from one-X Communicator via IBM Lotus Notes, Microsoft Outlook, or Microsoft Office Communicator.

This is the first in an ongoing series of Unified Communications Edge slide shows on top vendors’ products and services. The descriptions accompanying the graphics and photos are supplied by the vendors, though they may be edited for clarity and to remove unnecessary hype.

In terms of sheer size, the combined entity is in the same ballpark as Cisco. The precise pecking order, if a leader needs be identified, likely depends on the always-elusive definition of unified communications.

Next week: NEC of America Corp.
