This demonstrates Siemens’ commitment to open communication standards while offering new open capabilities such as the ability to emulate virtually any voicemail Telephony User Interface (TUI), and access to voice messages on-the-fly from any web browser with no requirement for email client integration. These enhancements, say Siemens, introduce more flexibility and choices, meeting the needs of diverse clients while improving business process optimisation and worker productivity.

“Because it offers SIP connectivity to the HiPath 8000, HiPath Xpressions is the clear choice for enterprises seeking a cost-effective, easy to manage, standards-based unified messaging platform with a comprehensive feature set and scalable architecture,” said Udo Sebald, Vice President Product Management HiPath Applications, Siemens Enterprise Communications. “Additionally, the solution provides a powerful tool for businesses with highly mobile workforces, multiple offices in dispersed geographical areas, and a large volume of time-critical projects.
