3CX delivers a business soft phone completely free of charge
London, UK – 2 September, 2008 – 3CX (www.3cx.com) has announced the
release of a totally free new VoIP phone that allows users to make and
receive calls from their computer using popular VoIP providers or SIP
servers. 3CX VoIP Phone, unlike other free soft phones, has a straight
forward, business-style interface and includes important business features
such as call transfer.
Nick Galea, CEO at 3CX said: '3CX VoIP Phone is great for businesses that
wish to have an easy to deploy, business-level VoIP soft phone. Because it
is free, the usual hassle of administration of client licenses is avoided.
The free editions of other VoIP phones do not have key features such as call
transfer or the ability to put a call on hold.
'VoIP Phones are an interesting option for businesses – they
are easy to administer and environmentally friendly. Hardware
phones require additional electricity, administration and desk
space.'
3CX VoIP Phone has a user-friendly and intuitive interface
with dial pad and buttons that make transferring or forwarding
calls a breeze. It also allows users to review their history of
calls, put calls on hold, to easily accept, reject or ignore
calls with a mouse click, and much more.
Launch calls from Microsoft Outlook – without re-typing the
number
One of the key features of 3CX VoIP Phone is its integration
with Microsoft Outlook. Users can launch calls directly from
their contacts’ list within Outlook by just right-clicking on
the name of the person they wish to call. There is no need to
dial any telephone numbers since Outlook works as 3CX VoIP
Phone’s address book.
