Key AltiServ Characteristics
Automated Attendant Features
The Auto Attendant features provide quick and courteous processing of all
incoming calls. An Auto Attendant can be configured to serve as a primary
Attendant or as a backup to a receptionist.
Auto Attendant features include:
•
Dial By Name - allows a caller who does not know your extension
number to spell your name using the telephone key pad. The system
will search the Directory and make a match on the name to connect the
caller to the intended party's extension. The caller can match first OR
last name when dialing by name.
•
Data-Directed Routing - allows the routing of calls directed by the
caller's input (digit or text). Third party applications can be used to
route incoming calls based on caller information.
•
Digit Collection - caller can be prompted to enter numbers, which are
then collected and used for routing the call.
•
Direct Station Transfer - allows the Auto Attendant to handle all
incoming calls instead of being answered by an operator. Callers can
dial an extension number to reach a specific station or use the name
directory to find an extension number.
Failover Routing - allows the Auto Attendant to provide a
NEW
new menu path as a failover action if the Collect Digits action
fails.
•
Multiple Attendant Support - allows up to 255 programmable Auto
Attendants.
•
Name Directory Service - allows callers to hear a list of employees
and their extension numbers.
•
Nine-level Programmable Menus - allows multiple levels of
recorded menu options for specific routing of calls.
•
Programmable Time-Out Handling - allows the administrator to
select the action the system should take if there is no digit detected by
the caller within specified seconds.
•
Schedule-Based Call Processing - routes calls differently for
different times of the day.
•
Web-based Call Processing - allows the Auto Attendant to accept
calls placed over the World Wide Web.
