HI Everyone
My manager came to me this afternoon and asked me about moving to one platform. We currently have Jabber and Skype and they are wanting to move to Skype. He wanted to know is it possible to have Skype control the Cisco phones in our network like Jabber does. I told him that I really didn't know if that was possible but I would ask around to find out.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Thanks Jonathan
I told my manager that I would recommend just moving everyone to Jabber and forget about the S4B but that's what they really want to use. So I think I'll talk to our CDW rep and see if they can help me figure this out for my department.
