1 Enterprise Phone Systems Comparison Guide Focus Research March 2010 Focus Research 2010
2 Introduction Internet Protocol (IP) telephony is increasingly replacing traditional PBX technologies at all types and sizes of companies. However, most businesses can t simply replace all of their incumbent telephony in one fell swoop. Instead, decision makers like you must look carefully at what s available, what you ve got and what you need. Once you ve surveyed the market and identified and prioritized your specific business needs, you re challenged to craft your best possible short list of candidates. And this Comparison Guide, designed for midsize and large enterprises, is here to help. This document is a companion to the Focus Phone Systems Market Primer and the Focus Enterprise Phone Systems s Guide. Our Focus Enterprise Phone Systems Comparison Guide is one of several research reports based on the Focus Research Methodology, which is designed to support your entire purchasing process. Phone Systems Market Primer Want to know what an enterprise phone system is? Enterprise Phone Systems s Guide Want help defining your requirements? Enterprise Phone Systems Comparison Guide Want help comparing? Table of Contents Comparison Methodology: Focus Type descriptions, comparison factors and how solutions/vendors are selected... p. 3 The Focus Short List: Candidates that Focus believes every buyer of Enterprise Phone Systems should consider p. 6 The Focus Comparison Grids: Detailed comparisons of product, pricing and vendor considerations p. 7 Vendor Profiles: Thumbnail descriptions of included vendors...p. 18 Focus / Comparison Guide / Enterprise Phone Systems Focus Research
3 Comparison Methodology As discussed in greater detail in the Focus s Guide: Enterprise Phone Systems, the Focus research methodology identifies three basic for business solutions such as enterprise telephony systems Basic, Intermediate and Advanced. B Basic s I Intermediate s A Advanced s Basic s are those in search of simple solutions that support the most widely used traditional and IP telephony features, such as modular installation and support for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). Such buyers typically have limited IT resources and expertise. Many, but not all, Basic s also typically work at smaller companies supporting no more than 500 users. Intermediate s are those in search of relatively more complex solutions that support greater capacities and more sophisticated features such as support for unified messaging, virtual private network (VPN) connections or enhanced security. Such buyers typically have some IT resources and expertise, and may have experience with IP telephony solutions as well. Many Intermediate s also work at midsize companies supporting between 500 and 2,500 users. Advanced s are those in search of fairly complex solutions (including support for multiple distributed sites and advanced call/contact center features) that enable increased availability, automation, optimization and integrated management. Solutions that meet the needs of Advanced s can often require extensive IT resources and expertise. Many Advanced s also work at larger enterprises supporting from 2,500 to 10,000 users or more. Focus / Comparison Guide / Enterprise Phone Systems Focus Research
4 Comparison Factors In addition, members of every Type identified by Focus Research have three primary areas of concern when considering Enterprise Phone Systems. These are: Product considerations: including basic, intermediate and advanced product features and delivery platforms; Cost considerations: including price, fees, hidden costs and ROI analysis; and Vendor considerations: including vendor viability, support, services and consulting. Vendor Selection To be considered for inclusion in this Guide, solutions and their vendors must meet the following minimum requirements. For Basic s: Solutions must interoperate with incumbent voice communications systems and phones. Vendors must offer integration and consulting services, directly or through partners. For Intermediate s: Solutions must support integrated or optional application integration, unified communications (UC) and unified messaging. Solutions must support at least limited integration with incumbent third-party hardware, including PBXes and analog phones. For Advanced s: Solutions must support distributed/multisite deployments (and consolidated management). Solutions must support customer-driven customization via application programming interfaces (APIs) and/or included software development kit (SDK). Vendors must have at least two years experience supporting advanced environments. Focus / Comparison Guide / Enterprise Phone Systems Focus Research
5 Solutions and vendors found to meet these requirements were included in this Focus Comparison Guide based upon analysis and comparison of product, cost and vendor considerations. Those solutions and vendors were also evaluated in terms of market prominence, after interviews and discussions with industry analysts, other experts and users. Some of these were conducted via the Focus Web site. These interviews and discussions were combined with Focus research and expertise to select Focus Short List members and to craft the comparison grids in this Guide. For more information, please contact the Focus research team. You should keep in mind that this Guide is focused on solutions intended for enterprises that are typically larger and/or in need of more sophisticated features than those required by small and midsize businesses (SMBs). Many SMBs are finding their voice communications needs being well met by smaller and/or less comprehensive solutions than those featured here. Some of the vendors featured in this Guide also offer solutions optimized for smaller companies and/or simpler deployments, as indicated by the Offers small business alternative? column in the Vendor Considerations section of the comparison grid. Those offerings are not featured here, as Focus does not consider them truly enterprise-class solutions. However, your company may have needs better met by the solutions discussed in this Guide, even if your company is not a large enterprise. Focus recommends that you use its Market and Guides, along with relevant Briefs and community discussion and your own resources, to identify and prioritize your business specific needs accurately and completely, and to best determine the candidate solutions and vendors most likely to meet those needs. Focus / Comparison Guide / Enterprise Phone Systems Focus Research
6 The Focus Short List The Short List and comparison grids that follow present information about leading enterprise-class corporate telephony solutions and vendors identified by Focus, organized by Type and the key considerations outlined above. Focus believes that the solutions and vendors on the Focus Short List offer pricing, functionality and/or support features of particular interest to each associated Type. The maturity of the telephone systems market means that there is often little differentiation among core feature sets. However, you should pay close attention to how those features are implemented and supported, and to what other functions and features are available with the solutions and vendors you consider. And as you craft your own specific short list, insist on apples-to-apples comparisons of features and pricing among the vendors and solutions that make that list.

19 Others Worth Watching Digium Google M5 Networks This company is the commercial force behind Asterisk, the most widely used comprehensive open source platform for IP telephony in the world. Digium offers Switchvox IP PBX solutions that support up to 400 users and 75 concurrent calls, with free trial editions available. The company also offers Asterisk software and Digium hardware components with which users and/or integrators can build customized solutions for IP telephony and other applications. Focus believes Digium and Asterisk solutions can offer significant economy and other advantages to users able and willing to roll their own solutions. However, those users must assess their needs and thresholds for pain carefully, to determine if the potential advantages are worth the extra work required. Some of that work may involve the services of paid consultants and/or integrators, which may shift cost/benefit calculations considerably. The company best known for online search and targeted advertising already offers a suite of services known as Google Voice. The company also acquired VoIP startup Gizmo 5 in November 2009, and offers an expanding suite of collaboration services under the Google Docs and Google Apps banners. Google has also launched a self-branded wireless handset based on the Android operating system already at the heart of wireless smartphones from multiple manufacturers and carriers. Focus believes that Google may have no plans to offer full-blown IP telephony services to businesses. However, Focus also believes that Google is taking voice services seriously, and that its initiatives could result in offerings that create new support and integration challenges to business decision makers. This company specializes in what it calls voice as a service. The M5 delivery model combines hosted PBX services (largely powered by Cisco technologies) with point-to-point, redundant connections between host and customer facilities (Verizon T-1 links with DSL backup). This approach provides high levels of reliability and redundancy, according to the company. In addition, M5 offers integration with CRM applications using a Web services adapter, rather than the Microsoft Telephony Application Programming Interface (TAPI) used by many other vendors. The M5 approach makes the CRM integration effectively cloud-based, avoiding the support problems that can accompany the clientbased TAPI approach, according to M5. Focus believes that effective voice-crm integration can reduce call durations and customer wait times and increase customer satisfaction. Users pursuing or considering integration of IP-based voice services with CRM or other applications should watch M5 s progress, and question other candidate vendors about their approaches to integration and strategic voice services. Several other vendors, notably Altigen, AT&T, Fonality, Qwest and Verizon Business, have relevant offerings in this market. However, despite repeated requests from Focus, these vendors were unable to supply sufficient, timely information to make meaningful comparisons or analysis possible. Focus will try to include these vendors and their offerings in future updates to this Comparison Guide. Focus / Comparison Guide / Enterprise Phone Systems Focus Research
