Live from Redmond: Microsoft Rebrands Real-Time Server Again
Continuing a trend that began with Windows Server 2003, Microsoft
announced yet another name change for the product that the company
planned to call Microsoft Office Real-Time Communications (RTC) Server
2003. The new name is Microsoft Office Live Communications Server
2003. Likewise, Microsoft will change the name of Placeware Conference
Center to Microsoft Office Live Meeting 2003 in keeping with the new
"Live" naming system the company uses for products that facilitate
live communication across and among companies around the world.
"Our customers told us they could better understand and relate to
'Live' and associated it with the potential to do more things while
connecting with other people," said Dustin Grosse, the senior director
of marketing for Microsoft's Real-Time Collaboration Business Unit.
"The new name reinforces Microsoft's commitment to help businesses
realize their potential by achieving optimal efficiency, productivity
and agility."
Microsoft says its Live Communications Server will provide
presence-awareness, Instant Messaging (IM) capabilities, and real-time
communications capabilities that integrate with the company's other
server products, such as SharePoint Portal Server and Office. Live
Communications Server and Live Meeting are now part of the Office
System as well, the company notes, giving Office users a range of live
collaboration features with workers, partners, and customers in
different locations.
