[{"type":"text","content":" SAN DIEGO, June 11, 2019 /PRNewswire/ --\nNews summary:- Unifying the collaboration portfolio to make life easier for users and IT alike- Jabber to mirror Webex Teams by summer's end- Originally available for Webex Meetings, the AI-driven People Insights will be available across portfolio—calling, messaging, meetings, and even Jabber.\n \nWhether you need to make a call, join a meeting, send an IM or solve an important problem with your whole team, Cisco has a device or app for that. Even better, we build the world-class network that can run it all. When you're in charge of the hardware, software, devices, and network, it turns out amazing things are possible. We're taking the friction out of your collaboration experience, so your team can move faster.

As a result, all our devices are now on the same operating system. And all our apps now work together better than ever. The latest tangible proof of this labor of love?
