snom UC Phones Add Mass Provisioning Support for Lync

snom technology has announced that its unified communications-edition Lync qualified phones, available via channel partners, can now leverage Lync server’s native administration interface for easy device management directly from the Lync server.

snom UC edition Lync qualified phones support in-band device management, overcoming standard provisioning and management challenges. Required settings like language, time zone, function keys, etc. are assigned by the administrator for individual users, groups of users or specific locations. Because this can all be done directly via the Lync server administration interface (PowerShell), the cost and complexity of additional network infrastructure, training and maintenance can be eliminated.

“This breakthrough solves a major configuration and customization challenge for customers deploying Lync with voice,” said Michael Knieling, COO of snom. “snom UC edition phones can be managed natively via the Lync Server without the need for additional servers or provisioning tools.”

“snom UC edition’s use of [Lync’s native provisioning capabilities] is pure genius,” wrote Microsoft MVP and Microsoft Silver Certified Partner Matt Landis in an examination of the capability, on his popular blog Windows PBX & UC Report. “It marks the first time Lync administrators can push out IP phone preferences directly and efficiently from Lync server, enabling them to manage snom devices using Lync Server’s built in functionality and PowerShell. The settings are pushed in-band so this works on devices inside and outside your Lync Edge and requires no additional poorly understood and poorly supported provisioning servers.”

snom’s UC edition lineup includes the snom 7xx series and the snom 821.
