What's the most cost-effective way to migrate to IP telephony?

Finding a partner that delivers network telephony without sacrificing flexibility, reliability, security, and interoperability all while leveraging existing investments is the key for a cost-effective conversion to IP telephony.

One approach preserves a company's infrastructure investment. Another builds it from scratch. It's important for your vendor to support either path while protecting your prior investment. The challenge for IT professionals is to leverage existing applications, user-training, and infrastructure while deploying new solutions.
