What business customers have known as the Office Communications Server has been rebranded as Lync, and Microsoft is now providing pricing details on the forthcoming unified communications offering.
The new version, already out as a release candidate and on track to ship by the end of the year, might not be as much of a hit to the budget as some expected. VoIP Planet reports on the pricing details and features of Microsoft’s Lync.
With only three months before Microsoft ships the next version of Office Communications Server — now renamed “Lync” — the company recently revealed pricing for the unified communication package.
In mid-September, Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) made the first “release candidate” — a final test version of the product — available for customers to download and test. At the same time, Microsoft announced it changed the OCS branding to Lync.
