Unlock Full Visibility Into CUCM With Variphy As-Built Reports

For channel partners supporting Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) environments, accurate documentation is a must-have, but maintaining it manually is time-consuming and prone to errors. Without real-time visibility into CUCM configurations, customers risk downtime, compliance issues, and migration challenges.

Variphy’s As-Built Reports automate CUCM documentation, giving partners and their customers a detailed, structured, and always up-to-date snapshot of their UC environment. With just a few clicks, you can generate reports covering:

• CUCM Configuration Settings: A complete overview of system-wide parameters.
• Dial Plans and Call Routing: Route patterns, partitions, and hunt pilots.
• Users and Devices: Registered phones, user assignments, and settings.
• Phone Firmware and Hardware Details: Serial numbers, firmware versions, and hardware revisions.
• SIP Trunks and Gateway Configurations: Connectivity and failover settings.

Whether your customers are preparing for a cloud migration, troubleshooting an issue, or ensuring compliance, they can leverage as-built reports to gain clarity they need to act quickly and decisively.

Why As-Built Reports Are Critical for CUCM Management

Without proper documentation, IT teams waste hours manually tracking down configuration details, leading to:

• Delayed Cloud Migrations: Lack of visibility into phone firmware and hardware versions can cause unexpected compatibility issues.
• Compliance and Security Risks: Many organizations need accurate CUCM records to meet regulatory standards like Kari’s Law and Ray Baum’s Act.
• Troubleshooting Bottlenecks: When issues arise, IT teams struggle to diagnose problems without clear documentation of devices, routes, and configurations.

Variphy eliminates these roadblocks. By automating CUCM documentation, channel partners can deliver more value, reduce IT workload, and help customers keep their UC environment optimized.

How Channel Partners Can Leverage Variphy As-Built Reports

1. Automate CUCM Documentation and Reduce Manual Work

Keeping CUCM documentation up to date is a constant challenge, but as-built reports make it effortless.

• Automatically generate structured, easy-to-read reports in CSV, PDF, or RTF formats.
• Provide customers with scheduled, automated reporting for continuous visibility.
• Ensure always-accurate documentation that simplifies compliance audits and system upgrades.

2. Improve Cloud Migration Readiness

Migrating to cloud calling platforms requires detailed hardware assessments, but CUCM doesn’t store hardware revision data.

• Identify which phones meet MPP firmware requirements with a hardware revision report.
• Avoid surprises by tracking firmware versions across all registered devices.
• Ensure a smooth transition by delivering comprehensive pre-migration reports to your customers.

3. Enhance Compliance & Security Audits

Organizations must maintain detailed UC documentation for compliance and internal security reviews.

• Verify that 911 call routing meets Kari’s Law, ensuring direct emergency access.
• Track configuration changes over time for audit trail purposes.
• Help customers meet industry regulations with accurate, real-time system reports.

4. Accelerate Troubleshooting & System Optimization

When problems arise, IT teams need fast, reliable insights.

• Quickly detect misconfigured lines, hunt pilots, or SIP trunks.
• Identify outdated ITL certificates, DHCP issues, and inactive devices.
• Deliver proactive system monitoring to reduce downtime and improve performance.
