The "Response Point" phone
system software makes the voice communications experience much easier
for end users. "The ‘Response Point' voice commands and speech-enabled
auto-attendant will offer users a powerful experience that differs
radically from other small-business phone systems on the market," said
RichTosi, president of Uniden
America Corp.
"A small-business employee can press one button on the
handset of a cordless phone and then access anyone in the company
directory, anyone in his Outlook contacts, and a range of calling features with a few simple words. That is a very powerful user experience."
Recognizing that phone systems are a critical part of
day-to-day operations for small businesses, the "Response Point" team
created a specialized architecture designed to optimize system
reliability. "We worked closely with the ‘Response Point' team to
develop the QuantaSyspine phone system," said Mike Yang, vice president
of Quanta Computer Inc. "‘Response Point' makes Syspine an intelligent,
turnkey solution and complements our strengths in hardware design and
engineering."
"Response Point" is one of the strategic initiatives
supporting Microsoft's vision for VoIP communications. "The ‘Response
Point' voice-enabled user interface is a great example of how
innovative new technology can be applied to solve everyday customer
problems," said RickRashid, senior vice president of Research at Microsoft.
In addition to "Response Point," Microsoft delivers an
extensible, software-based VoIP foundation through Office
Communications Server 2007 and Office Communicator 2007. Microsoft will
distribute the public beta versions of Communications Server 2007 and
Communicator 2007 later this month.
