CUCM 7.0(2) Advantages

Naveen Raj Janardhan · ‎04-30-2009

Hi, Can anyone please highlight the main advantages of moving from CallManager 4.2 to CUCM 7.0 with a business perspective? So also is the case with Unity from 4.0 to 7.0 and IPCC 3.5 to 7.0.

I have come across several documents, but it would be great if I can have this in a concise way. Thanks in advance.

Hi Naveen,

I did compile a doc (attached) awhile back that does show the major "feature" changes between CCM 4.x and CUCM 7.x. I do think, for many reasons that this upgrade is highly recommended :)

Don't forget that CCM 4.2(x) has been announced as End of Life as well.

EOS/EOL for the Cisco Unified CallManager Version 4.2

For Unity check out "New Functionality"

What is the advantage by having Active Directory and Exchange 2007 integrated with CUCM and Unity?
