Stanley Works' VoIP migration

If any company is going to be conscious of picking the right tool for the right job, it would be Stanley Works. Network World has a top-flight profile of a VoIP rollout at the renowned toolmaker, led by former Cisco exec. But if you'd expect that he would just plug in a bunch of Cisco gear, you'd be entirely wrong. Dave Cote is deploying servers and gear from Interactive Intelligence, Audiocodes, and maybe Polycom. The goal is to unify an international presence that grew fragmented through acquisition. Cote's starting by building an MPLS network, and he'll put VoIP on top of that.
