“I doesn’t seem possible,” says Phil Moen, President and CEO at Unimax Systems, as he describes the reaction enterprise end users have about that complex, time consuming, migration processes, might be automated. Moen tells us that enterprise attendees at this week’s EC23 came to visit the Unimax booth to find out how Unimax is offering a way, so that when changes occur, those changes are picked up automatically. Unimax provides administrative management software that layers on top all the UC platforms, so according to Moen, this form of applied automation, comes naturally.

Unimax provides a UC Management Software Suite with tools for automation (i.e. automated provisioning/de-provisioning), help desk agent moves, adds, changes, and deletes (MACDs), phone number management, employee self-service MACDs, advanced MACD administration, reporting, system migrations (between Microsoft Teams/Skype for Business, Avaya/Nortel, Cisco, etc.) and more for single and multi-vendor UC and telecom environments.
