CallXpress 8.1 contains many new capabilities including:

  • Rounding out the AVST enterprise resiliency story with the expansion of our Neverfail integration to include both high availability and disaster recovery capabilities;
  • Supporting up to 20 Call Servers on a single System Server;
  • Extending our world class unified messaging solution to support secure IMAP for cloud-based hosted solutions such as Google™ Gmail™;
  • UCConnect™, our new .NET open-development framework to enable third party developers, AVST resellers and end user customers to develop customer or vertical market-specific unified communications (UC) solutions; and
  • A new CallXpress Mobile client to change personal availability “on the fly”.

CallXpress 8.l is also significant in that it represents the expansion and enhancement of the world class “platform” architecture of the CallXpress 8 solution – the foundation for all future application and interoperability innovation on the CallXpress platform – to further extend the quality and capabilities of AVST’s world class unified communications (UC) solutions.
