The modern business structure has become more complex, requiring a more high-tech approach. The actual problem has become the search path opportunities to customize the infrastructure of the organization for its individual needs. Those. expanding the capabilities of integrating an IP telephony platform with applications, CRM systems, etc., to ensure mobility and flexibility of business structures.

After all, these solutions are extremely beneficial for sales, because Significantly facilitate the communication of supply departments with couriers, drivers and other employees engaged in the sale of the company's products.
The need to replace the organization’s SIP phones with Lyns has disappeared thanks to our innovative developments in the integration of Asterisk and Microsoft Lync. In the same area, we are successfully working on the Asterisk SoftPhone base in the Office Communications Server environment, which allowed us to use the functions of video and audio conferences provided by OCS.
There were many questions about our recent development - the organization of call centers. This topic was obviously close to the public, and our decisions turned out to be extremely relevant for modern giants of the high-tech industry.

At the end of the section, we participated in a round table on the development of modern technologies. Ukrainian
IForum , as we have already noticed, is distinguished by the utmost openness and tendencies to non-format communication. So even the usual discussion of development trends turned into an informal conversation, where questions and answers were not only exhaustive, but also filled with a sense of the speaker’s personal involvement in the field of their activities. We felt a personal attitude to the presentations of all participants, from this - the willingness to defend their point of view, give examples, go into the smallest details for a better understanding of the audience.
At the very closing, Alex Mas presented the book “The Secrets of Internet Marketing”, the first copy of which was sold for UAH 400 at an auction.
After leaving the official part, the participants were finally able to communicate outside of their reports and companies at the afterparty. Our team managed to establish a friendly conversation with
Anton Nosik - the most active participant in the forum,
Alexey Mas , judging by the recommendations and feedback is a really interesting book.
