About NextPlane

NextPlane is the leading provider of enterprise-class federation solutions for unified communication (UC) platforms, including Microsoft OCS 2007 R2, OCS 2007 & LCS 2005, IBM Sametime, Cisco Jabber XCP, Cisco WebEx Connect, Cisco Unified Presence Server 8.0, Jive OpenFire, and Google Apps.


Global 1000 companies are deploying the NextPlane Federation Server or subscribing to the NextPlane Federation Cloud to enable employees across different internal organizations — even different companies — to work together as if they were served by the same UC platform, sharing presence, exchanging instant messages and participating in multi-party chat sessions. In the near future employees can invite colleagues, and/or participate in voice and video conferencing sessions hosted on incompatible platforms.
