"The promise of Convergence has finally been realized and the results are much more than expected. With voice traveling on the corporate LAN and WAN, users are now enjoying the benefits of the applications that convergence affords. A more subtle benefit is that a select group of VARS has successfully made the transition to true end to end convergence providers. This gives users one hand to shake when they want to deploy projects, as well as a defined set of vendor responsibilities. CTI has consistently shown it’s merit in the convergence arena, and it is our mission to stay on the edge of this communication revolution and continue to provide unrivaled value to our customers."
