Explore the features below and how to use them.

Call Control

Making calls

Making calls from your computer is straightforward with ucplus.

It will increase your productivity by saving you time and reducing the number of misdialled numbers.


Receiving calls

ucplus can be used to tell you who is calling before you answer the phone. This can prove beneficial in many ways.

When you are busy working on a project it can allow you to be selective about which calls to answer. Also, it can allow you to greet the caller in a more personal way. When receiving a call it is very easy to store the caller's name for future use. Also with CRM integration, callers' details are quickly searched and displayed.


Transferring calls

ucplus provides an easy method to transfer calls.

Through the Presence window it allows users to see the availability of their colleagues and make intelligent decisions when transferring calls.

Users can perform an immediate transfer to quickly distribute calls. Or they can easily use ucplus to consult with colleagues and switch between calls.

Click-to-dial

Web Page Dialing

ucplus supports two separate ways of dialing from web pages.

Web pages can be scanned for valid telephone numbers and, when found, they are turned into hyperlinks to make dialing easy. Also, ucplus can be configured to provide dialing directly from many web-based business application packages.

Clipboard Dialing

Each time you copy a valid telephone number to the clipboard, a windows notification will appear which, when clicked, will dial the number.


Bespoke Dialing

ucplus allows developers to add dialing support directly from their applications.

Instructions are provided within the software.

Alternatively, ucplus can often be configured to work with existing applications to save any development work. See "Application dialing" for more details.


Application Dialing

ucplus supports several methods of dialing from applications.

Many applications can be enabled to allow dialing directly from within the application.


Focus Dialing

Focus dialing will automatically detect fields that contain dial-able numbers and will present a click-to-dial option to the right of the field.

If the application field contains more than one potential telephone number, a drop-down is displayed when you hover over the click-to-dial icon, allowing you to select which number to dial.


TAPI Dialing

Once you have enabled TAPI and configured your TAPI compatible business applications, you will be able to dial out telephone numbers directly from the CRM application.

Screen popping

Screen popping allows a business application contact record associated with an inbound caller's number to be opened simply by clicking an icon shown in the preview window.

This can be configured to pop automatically if preferred.
