Cisco
IP SoftPhone is a Windows-based application for the PC. Used as
a stand-alone end station or in conjunction with the Cisco IP Phone,
it provides the following features:
- Mobility
With Cisco IP SoftPhone running on a laptop you can take your
extension with you and receive calls wherever you are connected
to the corporate network. Even dial-up connections while on the
road can now be used to check voicemail and place calls while
online.
- Directory
Integration
Integration with LDAP3 directories allows you to quickly place
or transfer calls by looking up people by name or email address.
Corporate and public directories as well as a personal address
book are supported.
- User
Interface
Cisco IP SoftPhone's intuitive user interface and context sensitive
controls replace the overwhelming, non-intuitive buttons and archaic
keystroke combinations of legacy phones. Extensive use of drag
and drop allows you to quickly place calls using VCards, directory
entries and text fields from most Windows programs.
- Virtual
Conference Room
With Cisco IP SoftPhone setting up conference calls is quick and
intuitive. Participants can be invited by dragging and dropping
directory entries onto the SoftPhone's user interface to create
a virtual conference room. Once a voice conference is established
you can share applications running on your desktop with all participants
by selecting them from a list or dragging associated documents
onto the virtual conference room.
