What’s New in Avaya IP Office 9.0

Say goodbye to Avaya IP Office 8.0 and 8.1 ~ IP Office 9.0 is here and promises to deliver a slew of new features and upgrades to your Avaya IP 500 V2 phone system!

The Avaya IP Office 9.0 communications system provides you with a unified communications system to help ensure you’re managing your communications effectively and efficiently. Once you’ve chosen the right Avaya IP Office communications system for your business, you then simply select any additional user functionality you need from the following:

Mobile Worker (BYOD is here!)

It is all about BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) these days! Make any mobile phone an extension of the office phone system—complete with call handling features and speed dials. Know that when customers call, they are dialing your business numbers, not your employees’ personal numbers.

Power User (Is this YOU?)

Users control office communications using an IP phone, cell phone or laptop. Users receive all their messages – voice, email, and fax – in a single inbox (Unified Communications), and are automatically notified of important messages. Set up conference calls on the fly, and have calls ring simultaneously on both mobile and desk phones.

Teleworker (Remote Connectivity)

Give teleworkers—employees who work remotely full-time—the same phone and functionality they’d have in the office. Users connect their phones to the company’s phone system via a virtual private network. And because it all goes through the IP Office system, you can hire talent from anywhere and save money.

Help receptionists manage high call volume from their PCs. Streamline call handling with easy point-and-click call controls. A list of incoming calls and call status displays on the PC screen. Integrate with commonly used database software. Monitor all office extensions. Have one receptionist provide coverage for multiple offices.

In Our 25th Year, it’s Exciting Times at Telephone Magic!

Wow! It is hard to believe but we are in our 25th year in business at Telephone Magic Inc. One might think it would be time to sit back and enjoy the fruit of our success, but I have not been this busy in about nine or ten years. But it is FUN. So many exciting things are happening in and around our company.

We are now well into a website redesign that will bring us up to Web 2.0 standards. The new site will sport a beautiful graphic design, easy to navigate menus, online chat with “live” quotes, and an “Express Quote!” option available from any page of our site.

We carry more products today than ever before and more product lines are being added every day. If you don’t see it, we probably have it. If we do not have it, we will get it for you fast. From systems, phones, and equipment for Avaya IP Office IP500, to the Avaya BCM and Definity PBX. From Nortel Norstar and BCM 50 and 450, to Meridian 1 / Option 11C PBX. From NEC’s SV8100 phone system to Mitel, Cisco IP, Polycom, Plantronics, Teledex, Scitec, TeleMatrix, EnGenius and more. We carry it all!

The thing we are most proud of is the fact that we actually establish RELATIONSHIPS on the web. That is something that is considered very rare with this saturated world we live in online.

At telephone Magic we are also doing our darned best to build real interaction in the Social Media world. We have lots of exciting things planned for YOU if you FOLLOW US on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, and most recently Pinterest.
