"It is essential for companies to be aware of the options that are available to them when seeking to replace or upgrade their communications platform," said AVST's vice president of marketing, Denny Michael. "Through years of experience and successful implementations, we've found that one of the best and most effective tools to get the appropriate information out to end users is through informative online seminars."

This latest AVST-sponsored webinar will be moderated by Eric Krapf, co-chair of VoiceCon and an editor at Business Communications Review. Panelists include Hardy Myers, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.
