We've been working behind the scenes at the Realtime Unified Communications Community with NetIQ in preparing a series of four webinars.

In this series, I'll be talking about some of the challenges of moving from the planning stages of VoIP deployment into the operational phase. Each brief talk will be followed with live product demonstrations by NetIQ showing their comprehensive suite of solutions.

The first episode of this four-part series will take place live on the web on Wednesday, August 29th, so you have plenty of time to sign up and come join us. I hope to see you there.

Ready. Set. VoIP.
The VoIP life cycle from Pilot to Production

In the "Ready.Set.VoIP." web seminar series, Ken Camp, noted author of IP Telephony Demystified, and Mark Slavens, NetIQ Corporate SE for VoIP solutions, will take you through management of the VoIP life cycle—from network assessment, pre-deployment and ongoing monitoring to reporting and future expansion plans.

In part one of the series, Ken and Mark will focus on network readiness assessments and how taking stock of your resources will help you:

• Know your potential VoIP capabilities by provide a network inventory
• Warn you of potential shortfalls and measures to upgrade your network
• Set quality expectations for the network currently in place
• Avoid project paralysis before the pilot program begins

Too often organizations deploy VoIP without fully knowing the impact of converging voice and data traffic on a shared network. Don't be left with dissatisfied users and system downtime. Whether you have already deployed or are just considering an implementation, listen to find out how a VoIP network assessment can benefit your enterprise environment.
