In today’s competitive and diverse marketplace, effective collaboration is a critical component of organizational success. Messaging and collaboration systems are the true critical components in today’s enterprise which helps organizations improve collaboration, increase productivity, and streamline business processes. The choice of tools selected for Messaging and Collaboration impacts the organization’s ability to manipulate, process and to share information.
The underlying messaging and collaboration infrastructure is the foundation that determines the ability to deliver a core set of communication and collaboration services in an enterprise.
As messaging and collaboration capabilities within an organization prove to be mission critical, so the requirements of users and the available choice of tools makes the process always an evolutionary one.
Therefore a question arises that WHY there is a need to migrate from one Messaging Solution to another. There are several factors that contribute towards the critical decision to migrate from one messaging solution to another like, user experience, solution dependability, solution interoperability, solution integration demands, and above all the financial factor that is greatly impacting such decisions. The Capital Expenses (CAPEX) and the Operational Expenses (OPEX) are beginning to drive such decisions.
