Office Phones Go Mobile

SPEECH DESIGN Announces Expanded Portfolio and BlackBerry Integration

Orlando, FL - Wireless Enterprise Symposium - SPEECH DESIGN today launched new models for its Mobil Pro, an enterprise Fixed-Mobile-Convergence (FMC) solution, and increased integration with the BlackBerry® wireless solution.

Enterprise FMC allows a company to use a single wireline phone number for all business contacts.  Employees are reachable wherever they happen to be through that number and can access convenient functions of the office PBX on their mobile phones.  Outgoing mobile calls are routed through the office PBX, presenting the employee’s office number to the called party.  Improved customer service, greater separation of business and personal communications, and improved cost control are benefits of Enterprise FMC, for both large corporations and SMBs.

Some of the advanced features of new versions for Mobile Pro include mobile phone call logging and individual phone “conference rooms” for users.

SPEECH DESIGN has now joined the BlackBerry® ISV Alliance Program and supports Mobile Pro on the BlackBerry platform, running on the BlackBerry® 8700, the BlackBerry® 8800 and the BlackBerry® Pearl™ smartphones.

“Modern companies expect solutions enabling employees to work efficiently anytime, anywhere. It shouldn’t make a difference whether phone contacts with customers are handled from the corporate headquarters, on a handheld, such as a BlackBerry smartphone, or in the home office,” says Renaud Munier,  VP Sales and Marketing of SPEECH DESIGN, the European market leader in Enterprise FMC.

SPEECH DESIGN’s Mobile Pro is a market-leading Enterprise FMC solution, with more than 500 installations at companies of all sizes.

SPEECH DESIGN exhibits in the WES 2007 Solutions Showcase area, Booth #222.
