Network virtualization helps make branch offices more efficient
Today managing branch offices has become more complex. Branch employees are likely to be using real-time communications platforms, such as unified communications and collaboration (UC&C), to help improve productivity. These technologies help disparate employees work together more effectively, but they require the support of a modern network infrastructure. However, your IT budget probably doesn?t stretch to having a dedicated IT support team member at every branch location. Consider network virtualization as a way to make your branch office more efficient.
