Unified communications (UC) company Polycom Inc., today announced that the Polycom UC Intelligent Coresolution is transforming the UC experience by enabling interoperability with other vendors’ solutions, including the closed Cisco telepresence systems based on the Telepresence (News - Alert) Interoperability Protocol (TIP).
Significant innovations in the Polycom UC Intelligent Core platform will soon enable customers to deploy multi-vendor UC solutions and protect their investments in legacy third-party systems.
In a comment addressing Cisco (News 
- Alert) telepresence systems, TMCnet’s CTO Tom Keating said, “The interoperability solution will help enable multi-screen, high-definition video collaboration between all major telepresence vendors.”
In discussing the customers and their expectations Andrew Miller CEO of Polycom said, “Cisco customers have told us for years that they’ve been imprisoned by a closed telepresence platform that builds a wall around their UC environment and keeps out non-Cisco users. Today all that changes.”
“With its unparalleled support of open standards, the Polycom UC Intelligent Core solution liberates these customers and gives them more options for collaborating and expanding their UC environments than ever before, without having to sacrifice their existing systems. Breakthroughs like this are fundamental to our vision of UC everywhere,” he added.
The influence of Polycom solutions is impressive; to prove it, Motorola Mobility has Polycom telepresence systems deployed to this day.
