iAllworx is a new iPhone/iPod Touch application for use with Allworx phone systems and is a truly groundbreaking new integration application. iAllworx allows you to change your Presence, manage voicemail, and see conferences all from your iPhone.
Presence management - presence is where you are or what you’re doing. Depending on presence, calls can be routed differently and receive a different voicemail greeting. So when you’re out of the office but want to get calls forwarded to your iPhone, just go into iAllworx and set your presence to “Away.”
The new visual voicemail is a huge step up from voicemail to email, as you can delete messages from the Allworx, forward them, reply to voicemails, and even create a new voicemail to send to other staff.
Conferences is another nice element as you can see upcoming meeting information including bridge number and passwords. Needless to say a nice reference when you’re out and about but need to call in for a conference.
You can download iAllworx and run it in demo mode now to give it a try, it will be functional at the release of 7.1 in January 2010 with the Mobile Link license. Given that Mobile Link is just $200 for a site license, I’m very pleased with the value for offices with iPhones. Word is we’ll see iAllworx on other platforms such as Android in the near future.
