IPOffice blast conference 2

[auskar85]

Does IPOffice support function like Blast conference in Definity?

Thats OK. It is the purpose of these phones only for conferencing. But can't find button, which help operator to distinguish, which hooks are lifted and speaking into conference.

It doesn't exist, don't be afraid to tell your customer they need to work within the limitations of the system, you've already accomplished more with it than any other system in the SME market can handle, it can only be pushed so far

This is a useless discussion. Stop with it, just tell your customer there is no system at all that can do that.
Having the option to setup a conference with max. 63 participants, recording the conference, enable/disable microphones by the initiator of the conference, have private conversations with any participant, drop a specific participant is way more as a any other system can do and still not happy.

They told, that their 15 old year Alcatel was able to do these things until it crashed
Thanks you guys very much.

It may have, they may also be exaggerating a bit.... but either way that was probably the only advantage it had over the IP Office. If this was an absolute requirement they should have asked, if they did you are to blame

I canot believe that the old Alcatel could do all that, I have worked with Alcatel 20 years ago and I cannot remeber more then a 6 way conference.
It wasn't even possible to connect two trunks together if they were not on the same physical connection.
The SDX INDeX overclassed the Alcatel on all fronts and won the bid of a high level customer with well over 200 sites and three main offices with 2500 employees, each.
Oh men, those French engineers from Alcatel promised heaven but the SDX was way better.

In theory, you could use basic telephones without microphones (5602 for example) and a user could not speak into a conference without lifting the handset. Or you could break the microphone in a newer telephone.
