Hello,
Although I think Jabber's chat functionality is a great tool to boost productivity, I'm also aware of the downside of it. It makes it very easy to trash-talk about colleagues without anybody knowing but the senders and recipients of the chat. Granted this also may be done by e-mail but it's a less attractive way of communicating due to the longer periods between reply's. (This off course is my own humble opinion, and should not be subject of any discussion...)
Therefore I would like to disable the chatfunctionality for most users and only allow it for upper management. Can this be done through LDAP or embeded Cisco users/profiles ? Or is it binairy limited to either EVERYBODY or NOBODY within the organisation ?
Or for example are you able to centrally log all communication so that you have a deterrent not to use the platform to discuss lunchplans and what awfull skirt your collegae is wearing today ?
Set-up
4 family owned companies sharing a family ICT-platform.
Citrix farm of 2 servers, based upon Windows 2008 R2 environment.
Cisco Unified Communications 9.1.2
Cisco Unity 9.1
Thanks for all the help !
