ViewCall Plus

ViewCall Plus gives you total control over all your incoming, outgoing, external, and internal telephone traffic by managing calls on a PC via a Windows graphical user interface. ViewCall Plus provides live telephone call management on your PC in the same way that unified messaging enables you to manage voice mail and manage data about each caller with the applications—such as Microsoft Office—that you use everyday.

With ViewCall Plus, you simply click a mouse to take calls, send calls to a voice mail box, transfer calls to other extensions, ask callers to hold or hear the caller’s name. You can do all this from the desktop PC without picking up the telephone which means you can handle several callers at once without interrupting conversations. Three completely integrated windows let you control every aspect of your telephone traffic. The Telephone Control window shows the flow of calls to and from your extension and allows you to interact with callers without interrupting conversations. The Call Log window records all call activity. You can sort or print the information in any order, and you can utilize the information to return calls or add contacts to your database by dragging it to those areas with the mouse. The Contact List manages data about each caller including multiple telephone numbers and action items and provides you with on-screen information stored in your personal database before connecting with a caller.

For NEAX PBXs enabled with TAPI services (i.e., TAPI Link or PC Telephony Adaptors), ViewCall Plus also offers an Enhanced mode that adds powerful new features such as the ability to drag and drop dialing information. To make a call, simply drag the name from the contact list or Call Log to the telephone window and ViewCall Plus will dial the correct number.

ViewCall Plus includes PhoneBASIC® which allows programmers familiar with Microsoft’s Visual Basic to customize ViewCall Plus in almost unlimited ways. ViewCall Plus can be configured to access and interact with databases, work with spreadsheets, direct calls according to a set of pre-established rules, handle predictive dialing functions and more. For example, ViewCall Plus can make calls from within an application such as Microsoft Access or Outlook. Here are just a few of the features available with ViewCall Plus:
