• If you are not moving to Enterprise Voice soon– A cloud-based Lync conferencing and IM solution has the

lowest TCO

• If you are moving to Enterprise Voice– A cloud-based Lync solution that includes enterprise voice

shows a higher TCO than an on-premises solution

A Perspective for Cloud

Page 46: Lync seminar preso all content

• Getting a handle on operating costs is difficult– Survey data from analyst firms show widely varying operating costs

• Analyst firm A: $ 214 per user per year for ongoing operational costs• Analyst firm B: $ 714 to $1,912 per user for first year VoIP or IPT & UC

operational costs*

* Reports note that UC&C increases the scope of services provided, thus initial integration costs

• Sanity check against required staff roles– Operating staff or infrastructure outsourcing usually reflects:

• Ratio of staff to number of software server instances (whether on discrete or virtual machines)

– The number of servers driven by workloads; Lync and IP-PBX server counts are roughly equivalent

• Plus staff positions for network and QoS management and on-going system architect/manager

– Smaller enterprises see higher cost per user, based on system configurations

Take Control of Operating Costs - 1

Page 47: Lync seminar preso all content

• On-Premises or Cloud– Measure existing costs for a viable baseline– Automate and instrument system management– Use self-service and self-care options– Track help desk usage; use UC tools– Integrate simply with desktop/device support

• Promote user self-sufficiency

• Evolve your organization for UC – Converge with Desktop/Device Support organization– Evolve to UC as a software app on IT networks & servers (or in

cloud)

Take Control of Operating Costs - 2

Page 48: Lync seminar preso all content

• Only native UC solution for Office™

• Business communications is a blend– Text and documents are the leading modality (E-Mail,

Presence, IM, social, shared workspaces, document sharing, pictures, video streaming)

– Real-time voice and video serve particular purposes– Varies by processes and by demographic groups

• UC usage profiles guide optimal mix

Lync: Designed for Office Communications

Page 49: Lync seminar preso all content

• New UC value from optimizing processes*

– Change how business works– Go faster; use less; be different– Match trends for user expectations

• Lync leads in this category– Growing base of apps packages and sample code– Client and server APIs and SDKs– Part of the suite, e.g. AD, IIS, et al. – Large developer Partner community

Lync: A UC Applications Platform

* See Lync Business Cases: What’s Hot – What’s Not

Page 50: Lync seminar preso all content

• Lync TCO comparisons will vary widely by required workloads

• Lync TCO is competitive with leading IP PBX TCO

• Operational costs demand attention for best TCO

• Cloud offerings have an attractive TCO for some workloads

• Consider modular and hybrid approaches to TCO

• Leverage your existing Lync Server 2013 infrastructure, including connections to the PSTN.

• Easily add new Lync Online users that do not require PSTN access.

• Migrate from Lync on-premises to Lync Online over time, on your schedule.

• Integrate with other Microsoft Office 365 applications, including Exchange Online and SharePoint Online.

Why You May Deploy Lync Hybrid

Enable Existing Lync On-Premises customers to move to Microsoft Office 365

Enable New customers to get Lync services through a combination of on-premise and cloud

Page 71: Lync seminar preso all content

• Office 365 – Optimal for:– IM/Presence – Conferencing– Simple client-based apps

• Premises or Dedicated Hosted – Optimal for:– Enterprise Voice– Contact Center– CEBP and server-based

apps

A Hybrid Approach May Be Best

Page 72: Lync seminar preso all content

A Perspective for Cloud

• If you are not moving to Enterprise Voice soon– A cloud-based Lync conferencing and IM solution has the

lowest TCO

• If you are moving to Enterprise Voice– A cloud-based Lync solution that includes enterprise voice

shows a higher TCO than an on-premises solution
