Are you looking to facilitate Lync into your voice landscape? You CAN connect Lync with your robust telephony infrastructure today. CallXpress can be implemented as an Intelligent Gateway to connect Microsoft Lync or Microsoft OCS to existing PBX.

The Intelligent Gateway offers numerous benefits without the need for additional client software on users' workstations. These benefits include:

  • Extending the instant messaging and presence capabilities delivered by the Lync/OCS client to also be used as a softphone for the PBX
