Four newly released applications are available in the Apple App Store to drive
your customer's Asterisk PBX. iBat Pro, iBat User, iBat Access and the free
iBat Setup run on any IOS device, see more at: http://www.pxc.biz .
They cover a wide range of basic needs, always making it easy for users to do
what they need:
to act as their convenient 'BLF sidecar' to originate calls: without limits to
the number of targeted extensions.
to let the user get the called party's phone number from the iPhone's contact
list, choose the outgoing line and originate calls with ease from his/her
Asterisk extension
to keep track of calls originated to an external destination (a quick way to
keep a lively one touch phone numbers list)
to monitor their own extension, even when away from the desk
to monitor a centrally managed, per user defined list of extensions, with far
more information about the state than a colored LED
they offer a clean and simple call transfer interface, far beyond what even the
most advanced phones can do - perform a transfer to external destinations
choosing the outgoing line in a flash
Further, both iBat Pro as well as iBat User offer a mix of advanced ways to
originate calls:
The Operator Access function lets users bypass the PBX operator to get
connected to any Asterisk extension, saving time and with ease of knowing when
to call (the allowed extensions state is displayed in real time, thus avoiding
to call somebody who's already on the phone). [iBat Pro] [iBat User]
The BLF Callback function acts as the Operator Access, but lets Asterisk call
the user's iPhone, as opposed to the automated call from the iPhone to any
phone line served by Asterisk. [iBat Pro]
Again iBat Pro offers a way ('Callback Dialer') to place double originated
calls to any external destination; Asterisk thus bridges the connection to the
iPhone on one line to the destination over a second channel. This can be used
for many purposes (from keeping the user's mobile phone number private, to
saving money using convenient operators from the PBX).
Finally the purposely inexpensive iBat Access app makes the Operator Access
functionality available to external calling partners, people not directly
served by Asterisk (they have no extension, but do just call the PBX from the
public network). This is a way to bring preferred business partners closer to a
company, by letting them see when the desidered callee is available and thus
getting a quick connection bypassing the operator with ease from their iPhone.
