Dialogic One 2008 San Diego

I will soon be heading out to the Dialogic One event in San Diego and hope to see my friends and colleagues there. Dialogic has been and continues to be a major communications infrastructure player. As the markets have evolved, the company has shifted its business model to respond to areas which require more DSP processing and along the way picked up a number of former competitors.

Now the company has a complex array of solutions which can be used to solve a variety of communications challenges.

I always like to hear what Nick Jensen has to say about the market and his perspective is always unique and generally optimistic. I am curious to hear how current economic variables are meshing with his outlook.

Aside from Dialogic, you can come to the show and meet with the company’s partners. Here is a short list:

  • CommLogic
  • DCS
  • Envox
  • Esnatech
  • Interactive Intelligence
  • LumenVox
  • NEI
  • ScanSource Communications
  • TrueData

Oh yes, and you can meet with me as well.

9:00 am – 10:00 am Carrier Video Services Trends and Opportunities
Alan Quayle, Business and Service Development, Independent Consultant
Video has long been considered the next “killer” application, yet developers continue to struggle with the basics of getting video to/from mobile handsets. Many operators have solutions they could use to solve this problem. A critical change we are seeing in the carrier market today is that some operators are adopting open innovation, a Web 2.0 model; exposing capabilities and giving developers direct customer access. This session will explore the video opportunities created by these changes through a series of case studies.
10:00 am – 11:00 am Challenges in Implementing Video Services for the Enterprise Market
Greg Brophy, VP Product Management, Avaya
More than 50% of communication is non-verbal. In the past, video was thought to be too complex to be used as an everyday tool, but today video is as easy to use as a telephone. High-quality unified video solutions for thousands of desktops are readily available for the same price as a single competitive video conferencing solution. Next-generation contact centers integrate video as a natural tool. Self-service systems provide both voice and video information, agents can push video to callers, and consulting sessions can be setup on the fly with multimedia collaboration tools. Video both simplifies and enhances interaction, accelerating communication and business results.

Uncovering the Potential of Enterprise Video Technologies
Daniel Hong, Lead Analyst, Customer Interaction Technologies, Datamonitor
The maturation of networks and mobile devices is opening up new channels of communications through the video medium. Video adds greater texture to email, information services, entertainment, conferencing and contact center interactions. But the technology is new and the market nascent and only a handful of live deployments exist in the market to date. Over the next five years video IVR, or interactive video and voice response (IVVR) will be heavily deployed in niche environments where multimedia communications will improve information provision, self-service resolution, targeted marketing campaigns and enterprise business processes. This session provides an overview of enterprise video technologies and drills down into market opportunities and trends for IVVR across the globe.
