Unified Messaging is an application that allows you to combine your voice mail, email, and fax messages to one platform.  Your voice mail messages are converted to a .wav file and sent to your email.  This has been especially valuable for smartphone users.

The new Strata Messaging platform from Toshiba is a new application providing standard voice mail features as well as Unified Messaging (UM) capabilities at a lower price than previously available.  Strata Messaging is offered on a hardware platform specifically targeted for the small to medium business office.  This new hardware platform is a Linux operating system-based Unified Communication Appliance that connects via Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) to any Strata CIX system equipped with a current IP Interface Unit.  Strata Messaging is designed to give customers a winning combination for big company functionality for a small company budget.  Let us know if you would like more information on Strata Messaging or want to know if Unified Messaging is available with your current voice mail platform.
