Messaging enables users to manage all of their messages, both emails and voicemails, in one place. Since the main messaging platform is typically email, IP Office enables users to manage voicemails through the email system in order to keep all messages synchronized through one user interface. IP Office offers two voicemail options: Embedded Voicemail and Voicemail Pro.
Voicemail in general provides a phone answering machine with a personalized greeting on every employee's desk and allows callers to leave spoken messages when the user cannot answer a phone call.
