This unique solution enables service providers to extend business services to an end-user's smartphone - without the need to purchase complex network or customer-premise equipment (CPE) equipment.
Operator and system neutral, BroadTouch MobileLink is completely integrated with the BroadWorks service delivery platform, turning the business user's personal mobile into an extension of the PBX. Users can now dial and manage calls just as they would from their office desk phone, including tracking calls, picking up business voicemail, managing personal settings, and more.
With MobileLink, users can also search corporate directories, click-to-dial from the contact, and manage calling options, including call through (direct dial without pin codes or two-stage dialing) and call back (invokes a call from the BroadWorks system, avoiding roaming charges.)
Existing Smartphones Can Be Easily Added to the Business Package
This includes both corporate issued and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) smartphones, including iPhone, Android and Blackberry. As the trend to BYOD increases, organizations are looking for ways to control smartphone usage and costs. The BroadTouch MobileLink solution, in combination with BroadWorks Mobility services, enables IT departments to track and manage mobile usage even on personal devices.
MobileLink also integrates with BroadTouch Msg.Now - a fixed line text messaging solution that allows users to send and receive text messages using their business number. Msg.Now is launched from within the MobileLink client with the tap of an icon, allowing users to switch back and forth between apps.
