Unified Communication For Dummies, A Free Book
I am not a fan of dummies books, simply because I am not a dummy. But the series seem to appeal to many a people from every walk of life. So when I saw a free book from Avaya, "UC For Dummies", I had to let my readers know.
I threw away my cautions and read the book :) despite the title, it is targeted towards small business UC users.
It is valuable for anyone willing to get their hands on Unified Communications or gain a little insight in to the subject.
The book is organized in five chapters spanning 52 pages. I like the spread of chapters;
