I haven't worked with Cisco's Unity products, but a quick look a the document link you sent doesn't indicate anything out of the ordinary. It appears to add cisco-specific attributes to the user, group and contact objects and adds a new class specific to unity.
From a managing the Active Directory viewpoint, it would be good to ensure this is not a pilot or a test because the schema mods are pretty much one way (sure, you can later disable them, but it gets trashy if you continue to add/disable, etc).
If you really want to continue down the path of due diligence, you could look up the OID's that Cisco registered to make sure they're properly done etc. I would expect they are, but belts and braces and all that.

One of our divisions is planning to go with the integrated solution and
wants to run the schema update.
I have the link on Cisco's site about what they add.

But I don't know enough about AD to know the impact now and in the
future for windows and Exchange upgrades.
Any feedback is appreciated.
Thanks,jb
