Allstream Collaboration Suite

Business isn’t about networking with technology, it’s about networking with people. Thanks to technology, today's customers, business partners and workforces are dispersed in multiple locations, often half way around the world. Even the smallest organizations have international reach, conducting business around the world and around the clock. Automated transactions also have vastly accelerated the supply chain, making it increasingly important for companies to have constant and reliable access to their vendors and business partners.

Simply put, if you want to ensure your information, processes and people remain properly connected, you need powerful and effective collaboration tools. The Allstream Collaboration Suite (ACS) delivers on this promise by allowing geographically dispersed employees, customers, vendors and partners to share applications and documents and communicate in real-time via instant messaging, video conferencing and email. ACS is a hosted solution that delivers secure access to email, audio and video conferencing, calendars, tasks, folders, events and documents – from any access point, at any time.
