Stage in a call · ENDPOINT

The same extension, wherever the person is sitting.

An extension belongs to a person, not to a desk. Someone working from home, from a client site, or from a laptop in an airport is reachable on the same number and shows the same caller ID going out.

Remote work: Call to extension 104 → Rings desk and browser → Answered anywhere.

One identity, several endpoints

A line can ring a desk phone and a browser at once, and a transfer to that extension does not need to know which one the person is using today.

The address follows the person

A line that can dial out carries a registered service address, and that address is what a 911 dispatcher is handed. When someone moves to a different network, we ask them to confirm where they are instead of quietly sending the office address.

When the office is unreachable, the calls are not

Weather, a power cut, a burst pipe. The call flow does not care. Pointing a number at a group of browsers instead of a group of desks is a change you make yourself, in minutes, from anywhere with a connection.

Two modes

Simple by default, detailed when you ask

Most people never open the second column. It is one click away rather than spread across the first.

Simple mode

  • A toggle to prompt users to confirm their location when they move networks
  • Ring desk and browser together, or one and then the other

Advanced mode

  • Network identifier mapping — IP range, wireless network or switch port to a location
  • Dispatch notification recipients

Where remote work stops

  • Location confirmation depends on the person answering the prompt. If someone dismisses it, the last confirmed address is the one that stands.
  • We cannot improve a bad home connection. We can show you it is the cause.
