Place outgoing calls conveniently

  • Change the caller ID before making a call, or select the option to be prompted each time before placing a new call.
  • If the number entry field is empty, press the call button and the last number from the history will be retrieved.
  • Dial numbers using the touch screen or physical keypad without having to click on the number entry field first with the mouse.
  • The app can be designated as the system's default for placing calls. With this feature, you no longer have to manually copy and paste numbers. Simply clicking a tel: or callto: link will automatically launch the app with the number ready to dial.

Manage calls in a new way

  • When a new call comes in, you can see which inbound number was dialed, along with its assigned name. The PBX 'caller ID prefix' will also be shown if this feature is used in the call flow.
  • Calls can be transferred immediately (blind transfer) or after first calling the number you are transferring to (attended transfer). You can enter the transfer number manually, select a contact or a number from your call history, or send the call to call parking.
  • You can easily switch between active calls or set up a conference call. You also have the option to end the call for everyone or leave and let the other parties continue talking to each other.
  • If you have multiple devices, you can move an active call between them. The call will continue seamlessly for the other party.
  • Manage the call recording status of each active call separately.
