FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif., June 13, 2017 – The
Skype for Business landscape continues to
flourish, with approximately 75 percent of U.S.
enterprises conducting Skype for Business trials.1
Today, Applied Voice & Speech Technologies, Inc.
(AVST) announced the newest release of CX-E. An
enterprise-class Unified Communications (UC) platform,
CX-E enhances the Skype for Business user telephony
experience with Click-to-Call functionality and the
handling of complex call forwarding scenarios.
"AVST is the only company that offers a UC platform that
connects Skype for Business with all major PBX brands
while enabling key enterprise-class UC applications
including best-of-breed unified messaging," said Jim
Burton, Founder and CEO of CT Link and Co-Founder of
UCStrategies.com. "We have found that customers who
have deployed Skype for Business have a requirement to
manage complex call processing flows across multiple
PBX brands as well as deploy a highly flexible unified
messaging solution. AVST addresses those needs. It's a
perfect fit."
Many large enterprises currently:
Use Skype for Business for Instant Messaging and
Presence;
2. Have Cisco, Avaya or other enterprise-class telephony
switches (PBXs) for call control; and
3. Are considering Skype for Business as a full or partial
PBX replacement in the future.
"Enterprises are on a journey to Skype for Business,"
said Tom Minifie, AVST's Chief Technology Officer.
"AVST helps them transition over time, with their desired
feature set, at their chosen pace."
Skype for Business users can now easily and effectively
have desktop telephony access across a mixed PBX
landscape – Cisco, Avaya and more. The enhanced
Click-to-Call functionality in this version of CX-E
provides a telephony experience where calls can be
initiated from the Skype for Business client through an
existing PBX.
The latest version of CX-E addresses key enterprise
security requirements including support for enhanced
security via mobile devices. Security continues to be
one of the most defensible areas of tech spending.
According to Gartner, security risks far outpace business
needs and industry changes as the primary spending
driver, with over 50 percent of surveyed organizations
pointing to risks such as breaches or other security
incidents, and privacy concerns as leading issues. 2
Customers can be confident that data remains secure
when retrieved from AVST's Mobile Client on iOS and
Android devices.
New features in this latest release of CX-E include:
Improved Skype for Business integration enabling
forwarding of calls to CX-E in certain conditions such as
Do Not Disturb and Presentation Mode;
Skype for Business Click-to-Call client with auto-dial
mode;
VMware vSphere 6.5 support;
Mobile Client inactivity timeout; and
Android 7 support
The latest version of CX-E is now available through
AVST's reseller channels worldwide. For more
