3CX
today announced that it has released 3CX Gateway for Skype, which
allows VoIP Phone System users to receive and make SKYPE
Calls company-wide
3CX
Gateway for Skype is software based and will run on a non
dedicated Windows System and on the same computer as 3CX
Phone System. It is a free add-on for 3CX Phone System users,
including those using the free edition.
3CX Gateway for Skype integrates Skype calls seamlessly into the phone system, allowing inbound
Skype calls to be forwarded
to call queues, ring groups, IVR,
Voice applications and more.
3CX
Gateway for Skype allows companies to save significantly by using
Skype for outbound calls. More-over, users can redirect calls
to Skype numbers when out of the office and leverage Skype clients
on iPhone and Windows mobile. Said Nick Galea, 3CX CEO.
A Skype
account can also be published on the website so that customers
can call the company free of charge. Skype calls will be channeled through the company phone
system just as any other call and be forwarded to regular call
queues. This can be significant competitive advantage for many
web based businesses continued Nick Galea.
