4 INTUITY AUDIX Messaging
Fewer than 30% of person-to-person business calls reach the intended party on the first attempt. This makes the
day-to-day business communications fr ustrating and can impact productivity. Integration of communications
with Avaya’s INTUITY AUDIX messaging system helps ensure that calls are not lost.
In addition to call-answer capability, AUDIX provides new opportunities through multimedia messaging. A
multimedia message can include text, voice, and fax components. Multimedia messaging allows users to mail a
single message to persons on a mailing list, send a message with multiple components to other subscribers, or
categorize and store messages for later reference.

Application overview of AUDIX
AUDIX is a multimedia messaging application on the Avaya IP600 platform that
allows users to integrate voice, text, fax messages, and binary files into a single
message.
For example, a sales manager who wants to inform a distributed sales force of a new
compensation plan can send a message with both voice and text. The voice
component might be
“This message is going to all members of the Northeast Sales region.
Congratulations on your excellent results last year. As of January 1st, the
compensation plan for new product sales will be changed. Please print the
attached text message for detailed information.”
The text message could be created in Message Manager and specify the plan details.
