We just purchased IP Office and each user is a Power User. We are on 8.1 (not the very latest feature pack, we should have that in a week or so). I was told (incorrectly) but the sales guy that I would be able to use my iPhone as an extension, i.e., I could be connected via4g/vpn or wifi/vpn, take a call, walk to my desk and then migrate to my deskphone seamlessly. I wanted to make calls via my iPhone as if it was the deskphone.
With the latest Avaya Onex Mobile App for IP Office from the iTunes store the only real functionality we get (other than IM'ing and listening to voicemails) is Mobile Twinning, for which we don't really need an app. The outgoing calls are lame as there is the convoluted process whereby IP office has to call you back, then make the call.
The Mac Soft Phone works great and Avaya Flare Experience for iPad lets you make "real" calls. Is there anyway to do it with an iPhone? If I bought a SIP license would that enable me to do it? Are there third party clients that would do it?
The sales guy did say that they keep bring more and more enterprise features to IP Office and he expects that the regular 1x client calling should come eventually.
We also really want the Enterprise Mac app, 1xmobile web interface is pretty good but it takes up a lot of space on your screen and you don't get the "service" whereby you can right click a number on the screen in any application and it dials. Once again we have been told that the enterprise stuff seems to be coming down to IP office and hopefully that will come to us.
