Instant Messaging Planet 2002 Conference & Expo is designed for professionals interested in better understanding the business opportunities presented by enterprise Instant Messaging (IM). While Instant Messaging is best known for its use by consumers, its vast untapped potential is in the enterprise business sector, where it has rapidly become a critical tool for business communications, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and business process integration. Companies have found that Instant Messaging within their enterprises has saved them valuable time and money, and in crisis conditions has even proven to be more reliable and more effective than their e-mail systems.
