Cisco IP Phones Text Broadcast

Overview

We know that you didn't purchase your Unified Communications system in order to send text messages to the displays of your IP Phones, but this is a welcome benefit that you'll receive with Variphy Insight.

As with the other features in Variphy Insight, our Broadcast feature is web-based and can be configured so that individual users can only broadcast to a certain group of IP Phones. No additional equipment is needed for our Broadcast feature to work, allowing you to dedicate available resources to other needs.

• Send emergency or notification messages to one or more Cisco IP Phones
• Create softkey buttons to display a response on the end-user’s IP Phones
• Add and create a new Broadcast Distribution List in seconds
• Example Messages: Network Maintenance, Company Meetings, Evacuation Warnings, Weather Warnings, Company Polls, etc.

Create device Distribution Lists

• Provision user logins access to specific Distribution Lists
• Search for devices to be included in the Distribution List by Device Name, Description, Directory Number, etc.

Review user response results
