Another update for the upcoming Software Group Community Day, set for Wednesday, Sep. 5th, from 15:00 at Cinema City, Israel.
First, the event website, where you can find details on the event, the other brands’ sessions, agenda and a registration form – ibm.com/il/news/events/community .
Secondly, Lotus session. There has been many announcements this past week, regarding Lotus Notes and Domino 8, Lotus Sametime 8 and the acquisition of WebDialogs and subsequent introduction of Lotus Sametime Unyte. This makes out Lotus session much more interesting. I will try to provide as much information as possible, on how Lotus strategy is affected, what will change, what are the benefits and how we intend to promote these offerings in Israel.
For the live demo part, I am planning to present you a UC2 (Unified Communication and Collaboration) demo, in sync with recent announcements regarding Lotus Sametime 8. It’s not final, so stay tuned. UC2 is gaining momentum in Israel, as many businesses, not only large enterprises, are moving towards VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) solutions. Lotus Sametime serves as an excellent platform for VoIP solutions, and can integrate with leading providers, such as Cisco and Avaya. I encourage you to watch this webcast, held by IBM with Colgate-Palmolive, on UC2 solutions.
If you have a particular request for the Lotus session, let me know.
