'''HCL Sametime Standard''' provides additional functionality to HCL Sametime Entry, including:
* rich presence including [[location awareness]]
* [[rich-media]] chat, including point-to-point Voice-over-IP ([[VoIP]]) and video chat, timestamps, emoticons, and chat histories
* group and multi-way chat
* web conferencing
* contact business cards
* interoperability with public IM networks via the HCL Sametime Gateway, including [[AOL Instant Messenger]], [[Yahoo! Messenger]], [[Google Talk]] and [[Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol|XMPP]]-based services.
* open APIs that allow integrations between HCL's own and other applications
* Sametime Audio/Video Services supports audio (e.g. [[G.722.1]]) and video codecs (e.g. [[H.264]])<ref>[http://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/rep_ca/2/897/ENUS209-392/ENUS209-392.PDF Sametime 8.5 Announcement Letter, IP audio/video terminology and concepts], Retrieved on 2009-12-15</ref>

'''HCL Sametime Gateway''' provides server-to-server interoperability between disparate communities with conversion services for different protocols, presence information awareness, and instant messaging. HCL Sametime Gateway connects HCL Sametime [[instant messaging]] cooperate communities with external communities, including external HCL Sametime, and public instant messaging communities, such as: [[AOL]], AIM, [[ICQ]], [[Yahoo]], [[Google Talk]], and [[Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol|XMPP]]. HCL Sametime Gateway replaces the Sametime Session Initiation Protocol ([[Session Initiation Protocol|SIP]]) Gateway from earlier releases of HCL Sametime.

The HCL Sametime Gateway platform is based on [[IBM WebSphere Application Server]], which provides failover, clustering, and scalability for the HCL Sametime Gateway deployment.
The product is shipped with the following connectors: Virtual Places, [[Session Initiation Protocol|SIP]], and [[Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol|XMPP]]. More protocol connectors may be added.
