Plantronics partner Avtex Solutions has developed the Avtex Smart Forward Agent application to provide users with additional functionality when they use the Voyager Legend UC headset with Microsoft Lync.
By leveraging the contextual information the Legend provides about how close a user is to their PC while wearing it, Avtex Smart Forward Agent can automatically turn the Lync Call Forwarding or Simultaneous Ring features on when the user walks away from their PC.
"Plantronics is excited to see our partners leveraging the broad capabilities of the Voyager Legend UC to bring users an application that enhances the Lync experience beyond audio," said Joe Burton, senior vice president of Technology, Development & Strategy and CTO at Plantronics.
"With users becoming increasingly mobile the Avtex Smart Forward Agent better integrates a user's mobile phone with Lync for a truly unified communications experience."
