SOFTPHONE APPLICATIONS
COMPUTER TELEPHONY INTEGRATION (CTI)
With a conventional telephone system, analog or digital telephones are plugged into an extension socket connected to a PBX or Key System.
With IP Telephony, the telephone is connected to the IP PBX via the LAN. There are two basic types of IP phones:
A physical telephone, which looks very similar to a standard telephone (IP HardPhone)
A software application (iPhoneManager Pro) that runs on the user's PC, allowing them to use either a headset or a microphone, and their PC Keyboard to access telephony features.
RECEPTIONIST CONSOLE
AvayaT IP Office RECEPTIONIST eConsole Application
The PC based Windows Operator Console 'eConsole' has been specifically designed to provide benefits through improved operator service. Deployment of the eConsole provides the operator with the correct information to prioritize call handling and give the appropriate response to the caller. At the same time, the operator can maintain visibility of the number and type of calls waiting and so ensure that clients are greeted in a professional manner, enhancing your image.
E CONSOLE has been designed to be easy to use, whilst offering a look and feel that appeals to experienced and novice operators. The console is divided into 9 main areas:
- Incoming Caller Window
- Call Information/Notes Window / Outgoing user/Extension Name Window
- Outgoing Party Information Window
- Queued Call Bar Graph.
- Call Handling Buttons.
- Call Park Area
- Speed Dial Buttons
- Line Status Display
DESK SOFTPHONE APPLICATIONS
In addition to traditional analog and digital telephones, IP Office also supports IP HardPhones and SoftPhones. Using the inherent gatekeeper and gateway functions, IP Office can support either a 100% IP telephony solution, or a hybrid of both the traditional and IP worlds.
PhoneManager Lite is included in your AVAYA IP OFFICE system. The applications allows all employees to access the features and facilities only previously available to those working in call centers, or those companies deploying expensive, proprietary feature phones on every desktop. Using an analog telephone or digital terminal, along with a networked PC on the associate's desk, Phone Manager allows employees to take total control of their phone calls from their PC.

Messaging Platforms
Messaging is one of the many applications provided to increase business efficiency and improve client handling. Voice mail provides the equivalent of a telephone answering machine on every employee's desk; in fact, voice mail facilities can be allocated to remote employees even though they may not have a desk or telephone in the main office. Voice mail allows callers to leave messages for you when you are out of the office, away from your desk or engaged on another telephone call. Voice mail messages can be retrieved either locally or remotely via any telephone (you will be prompted for a PIN number if you are using any telephone other than your allocated extension or a trusted location e.g. your mobile telephone). Alternatively, you can forward your voice mail to your email and collect it via your PC. This approach allows you to use your PC to display your two different types of messages.
Two VoiceMail applications are available:
- VoiceMail Lite
- VoiceMail Pro
VoiceMail
VoiceMail Lite is included in the IP OFFICE system.
IP Office's standard VoiceMail application allows detailed, confidential messages for individuals and Hunt Groups to be left and collected 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It can handle up to 4 simultaneous calls. When enabled VoiceMail Lite automatically answers your telephone when you are not available to take a call. Personal greetings can be recorded, providing confirmation that the intended recipient will actually receive the message. Messages may be played as a continuous loop. This allows information to be heard, but no message to be left. The caller may press a key on the telephone at any time to be transferred to a pre-determined number, usually the receptionist or secretary. Where a voice mail needs to be copied to others, VoiceMail Lite provides many options: Voice mails can be simply forwarded to another mailbox, or group of mailboxes Recipients can append their comment to the voice mail before forwarding to another mailbox or multiple mailboxes. Alternatively, voicemails can be forwarded as emails.
VoiceMail Pro
VoiceMail Pro allows message handling for individuals or groups, provides information to callers, assisting the operator during periods of heavy call activity and more by including a powerful voice processing system and an easy to use graphical user interface - The VoiceMail Pro Manager application also allows far more to be achieved than just guiding a user to the group or extension they require. It allows VoiceMail Pro to dial back users, internally or externally, as soon as a voice mail message is left for them. It provides security; by prompting for a PIN code should a user wish to change their Forwarding or Follow Me number from an external telephone.
A single VoiceMail Pro server (PC-based) can provide voice mail services:
- Multiple IP Office systems over the LAN, WAN or a Frame Relay network.
- Centralized VoiceMail' can reduce costs, whilst facilitating communication between IP Office sites.
