Do you offer desk reservation solutions for hybrid flex-office environments? We can extend flex-desk environments with business telephony by combining desk reservation systems with RSconnect desk phone management solutions.<\/p>\n

Extension Mobility in flex-desk environments<\/h2>\n

In many organizations, desk phones are still popular and sometimes even mandatory. For example, in some petrochemical companies, mobile phones are not allowed. However, this causes an issue in flex-office environments. If an employee checks in at a random flex desk, the associated desk phone usually is not by itself configured with the employee\u2019s directory number, contact list, calling rights and other features.<\/p>\n

To solve this, many corporate telecom providers offer so-called mobility features (Cisco Extension Mobility is a leading example). Using such features, a user can log into a desk phone, and the corporate telecom network automatically loads the user\u2019s profile. As a result, the user can be called via his own number, make calls using his own address book and check his voicemails.<\/p>\n

It is a helpful feature in flex-office environments. Unfortunately, the login procedure is often rather cumbersome. Typing a username (often someone\u2019s email address) and a PIN or password via a rudimentary telephone keypad is far from easy and a severe obstacle to using the feature.<\/p>\n

RSconnect proposition: userfriendly Extension Mobility<\/h2>\n

The RSconnect Active Login Manager PRO application (ALM) removes that obstacle. ALM offers automatic login functionality for desktop phones and conference sets in flexible office environments.<\/p>\n

Each time the user activates his computer, the ALM software detects this and automatically sends a user profile login request to the telecom network and the associated phone. As a result, a username and password are no longer necessary and the user can immediately make and receive calls. And as soon as the computer is deactivated again (switched off, logged out, or locked) at the end of a \u2018working session\u2019, the ALM software resets the phone back to the default configuration and is securely logged off and ready for the following user.<\/p>\n
