Revolutionizing Speech Technology in the Cloud

An enterprise-grade unified speech assistant can lower costs and streamline processes, taking corporate productivity to new heights. It’s even become part of some enterprises' “work smarter” programs. The question is - why aren’t more organizations embracing it more quickly? Siri has certainly made an impact in the consumer world, bringing speech technology to the forefront; however, some have begun to sour on Siri’s performance as referenced in a recent NY Times article.

The situation is not the same with enterprise speech applications like Mobiso. This product grew up in the large enterprise space and continues to successfully support global Fortune 1000 customers, as well as small and mid-size users from the cloud. Our partnerships with Avaya, Mitel, Broadsoft, Metaswitch, Genband, and Cisco continue to grow as Mobiso becomes the unified speech assistant of choice.

With superb accuracy on day 1 as a result of Mobiso’s patented Logical Choice software and unique day 2 Continuous Linguistic Improvements, enterprises appreciate the performance Mobiso delivers year after year. Here are the key reasons why partners choose Mobiso an why Telovations Licenses Lyrix's Mobiso speech-enabled auto-attendant solution.

Historical barriers to adoption of speech technology in the enterprise consist of the sizable capital investment of deploying and maintaining a speech recognition system. Even though it may yield substantial ROI, in these recent tough economic times the upfront costs can often put the project “on-hold”. Traditional on-premise deployments take a bit more time and can sometimes present deployment challenges, and speech technology is tricky to support and maintain. For organizations with limited IT resources or expertise in the right areas, it’s sometimes simply a no go.

A cloud-based speech technology solution overcomes those barriers. It offers all the features and functions of a traditional premises-based speech enabled auto attendant but can be deployed much more rapidly and easily and eliminates the associated costs of a premise-based solution. With a pay-per-user/month model vs. a huge up-front investment, Capex moves to Opex and becomes a more predictable operating expense.

A cloud-based solution reduces overall costs, centralizes management, offers infinite flexibility, and enhances communications continuity and disaster recovery. By putting your speech-enabled auto-attendant applications in the cloud, they benefit from a robust unified speech assistant solution that makes it much easier to deal with the challenges of mobility and multiple devices - including the challenges of BYOD. Mobiso can also uniquely help facilitate and support a BYOD program with software and services with WEM services.

Case Study: Mining company turns to Data Domain for backup

A data center within P&H Mining Equipment (P&H) had a problem recovering from a tape library that was too small. Recovery of files and emails was taking up to 72 hours, and IT was increasingly concerned that it would not be possible to recover from a major disaster. Rather than increase the capacity of the tape library from 500 to 1,000 tapes, P&H choose an innovative solution of a ten terabyte data de-duplication system from Data Domain. Importantly, the installation required no changes to the Tivoli Storage Management (TSM) procedures and virtually no education for storage administrators.

Planning a Green Storage Initiative

Fluctuating energy prices have heightened electricity and energy consumption as a major issue within the technology community. IT is a significant consumer of energy and IT energy costs have been rising disproportionately because of continued investment in denser IT equipment. Estimates from the EPA and others indicate that IT will account for 3% of energy consumption by 2012.
