BAS: Call Recording and Playback

Apart from the directory, another powerful feature integrated into the Business Receptionist client is the ability to record conversations and playback greetings over the telephone. With the addition of a Dterm Play/Record Module, the client will be able to automatically record voice conversations and instruct the software to save the last specified number of conversations. Conversations are saved as .wav files, which are time & date stamped and rotated in a circular buffer. When it is determined that a call needs to be saved, the operator simply presses the “Save Recordings” button and the selected call is automatically saved. Conversely, the operator can save a set of greetings to be played back immediately every time the phone is answered via the Business Receptionist. Greetings playback can be determined based on “internal” or “external” calls, on groups of caller IDs, or even morning or afternoon. A different greeting can be recorded for any of the scenarios above allowing the attendant to present a pleasant and consistent greeting over the telephone.

BR: Authorization and Account Code Dialing

Business Receptionist supports dialing with Account Codes or Authorization Codes. See the previous section on BAS for details of operation.

BR: Attendant PC Minimum Hardware Requirements

The OpenWorX® Communications Portal provides the added value of including communication tools within the portal. This enables information technology organizations to provide their users with a single interface for multiple communication applications. The consistent interface across the organization can streamline administration, management and user training while providing the greatest level of functionality to users.

Many daily business activities rely on communications, but at the same time, business people can easily be overwhelmed by the volume of contacts – and the variety of communication forms enables anyone to interrupt at any time. Today’s business professional must be empowered to manage their communications. OpenWorX Communications Portal integrates all of these channels into a unified, web accessible portal that puts the individual back in control of their own communications. All contacts can be simply and easily managed from a single application – reducing the complexity of dealing with multiple communication types and increasing personal productivity.

Today’s business person is mobile, yet they are dependent on communications to maintain the flow of their business. Most business communication attempts fail on the first attempt because the receiving individual is away from their desk or is otherwise engaged. The OpenWorX Communications Portal will understand the individual’s status. Using flexible rules and capitalizing on the integration of voice and data, it will selectively route contacts and messages based on the identity of the sender as well as the status of the individual.
