Communications vendors in both the enterprise and public network environments are unanimously promoting a move to IP based networking, with voice and data being carried on the same network.

As information distribution across an enterprise becomes ever more critical to the success of an organization, user expectations of communications and information management systems are increasingly moving toward the following:

- Access to information, content and people from wherever they are, with whatever device is accessible.
- To be fully or selectively accessible to business, social or domestic contacts, wherever they are and to automate part of the management of these interactions.
- To move seamlessly from one communication medium to another
- Managing this communication and information flow easily with simple, intuitive controls
- Customization and personalization

Alliance UniVersus will allow Connect customers to send Voice Emails across the world from their Connect phones and also allow them the ease of sending Faxes from their Fax machines to email accounts anywhere in the world.

Ravi Baid, CEO Alliance Infotech says while commenting on the developments “ We are very excited to work with HFCL in providing these revolutionary features in Punjab. HFCL has an exponentially growing customer base. The UMS product will ensure that HFCL Connect has the features that a customer looks at while choosing the right service provider.”
