Toshiba is recognized for “innovation, unique features and significant contributions toward improving communications technology”
With Toshiba’s Call Manager on your Strata CIX or IPedge business communication system, your Windows laptop or desktop PC becomes a powerful tool for managing telephone calls, voicemail, Web, email and more all from a single screen, using your mouse, without ever picking up the telephone. Presence and IM/Chat unified communication capabilities also increase efficiency.
Strata Call Manager brings forward all the capabilities of the acclaimed Net Phone product into a new look based on the graphical “ribbon” interface of Microsoft Office 2007. Commonly used tools are grouped together under tabs for intuitive, one-touch access to features, applications, files, contacts and more. Drag-and-drop features make it faster and easier to manage calls, trigger user-defined actions and launch applications, screen pops or Web pages.
Call Manager redefines how users interact with their contacts, their communication channels and with customer information. For example:
- Point and click for one-touch management of phone calls and voicemail right from the PC screen.
- See the status and details of incoming calls. Right-click for a menu of actions (such as answer, hold or forward) or drag-and-drop to send the call to voice mail or another party.
- Schedule and auto-dial multiple outgoing calls, integrating with popular customer relationship management programs such as Microsoft Outlook®, Act! ®, and Tigerpaw®.
- Collaborate with the immediacy of instant messaging (chat).
- See the status of all the automatic call distribution (ACD) groups to which you belong.
- Define more than 500 custom buttons for mouse-click access to the computer or telephony features you use most—such as to speed-dial contacts, view or manage call center groups, or launch Web pages and programs.
