It’s always good to get a call from enterprising people. This one came out of the blue and turns out to be an extremely interesting solution for managing small or large numbers of Cisco IP Telephones. Not an area that I’d really thought about as you naturally think that the manufacturer has sorted all this type of stuff out themselves.
However, having spent a couple of hours talking to a highly qualified and able Cisco CCIE, an expert in the design and deployment of IP Telephony, I realised that there is a real opportunity here to provide a relatively simple solution to a quite complex problem. If you’re responsible for looking after several thousand or tens of thousands of Cisco handsets, across, potentially, many different locations, how do you manage them effectively?
Unified FX has come up with a unique solution allowing complete visibility of Cisco handsets across the entire corporate estate. The ease of access is immediately obvious, the bulk operations so simple it makes you wonder why it’s taken this long to identify that there is a problem and find a solution for it. But this solution has all the hallmarks of a true engineering support tool. It’s been developed to fill all of the gaps when looking after IP phones allowing the management of these to be done totally remotely yet observing and operating the phones as if they were in front of you.
This is well worth a look here. Downloadable, free trial and some impressive users already.
