Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Six months is hardly 'shortly' in this industry, but 70 resellers have now been trained and are authorised VoiceCenter partners, and the product has gone on sale.
"Previous IP telephony systems have been simply too expensive and difficult for small businesses to set up and maintain," said Dean Williams, product strategy manager for D-Link Australia and New Zealand.
"VoiceCenter is a next generation IP telephony system, based on Microsoft Response Point software, which is designed to offer improved functionality, productivity and ease of use at a substantially lower price point."
Based on Windows XP Embedded and intended for businesses with between one and 50 employees, Response Point supports analogue and VoIP telephony, and is designed to be easy to set up, manage and use.
In place of hard-to-remember key codes or awkward menu structures, Response Point uses voice control for transferring, parking and receiving calls. Calls can be placed to people in the company directory or an Outlook address book by saying their name.
"VoiceCenter combined with a VoIP carrier can offer greatly reduced call cost savings that have already made VoIP attractive to consumers, plus the productivity benefits that have driven its adoption by larger enterprises," added Williams.
"Any organisation with basic networking knowledge can customise a telephone solution with VoiceCenter in a matter of minutes."
VoiceCenter is intended for systems with up to 50 handsets.
The five-phone DVX-2000MS-5 costs $A4269/$NZ5303, and the 10-phone DVX-2000MS-10 is $A5739/$NZ7131. Additional phones are $A299/$NZ363 each, and the DVG-3104MS four-port PSTN gateway costs $A499/$NZ616.
