All of ESI's VIP PC applications let you combine the power of your ESI phone system and Microsoft Outlook to enhance communication in your day-to-day activities - including the ability to control calls and organize voice mail and contacts.

VIP (Visually Integrated Phone) comes in two "flavors": the basic VIP and VIP Professional. Each configuration is licensed independently, with easy migration from VIP to VIP Professional. Each lets you intelligently do the following from your PC's screen:

• Manage your telephone calls
• Manage your voice mail
• Organize your contacts
• Log all your inbound and outbound calls
• Quickly program your ESI Feature Phone

With VIP Professional, you also get:

• Enhanced, more informative user interface
• Secure text-messaging
• Auto-recording capability
• Compatibility with VIP PC Attendant Console, VIP ACD, and VIP Softphone

And, speaking of those other three products . . .

These independently licensed members of the VIP product family, all compatible with VIP Professional, add their own specific capabilities (click their links for more information):

• VIP PC Attendant Console - Makes it easier for even the busiest attendant to handle call traffic efficiently.
• VIP ACD - Helps you improve the quality of your customer service when used with the ESI-600, IVX X-Class, or IVX E-Class Generation II phone systems and their built-in ACD (automatic call distribution).
• VIP Softphone - Lets you use your PC to connect to your ESI-600 phone system from nearly any location with a broadband connection.

Regardless of your selected configuration, VIP is easy to implement. It connects to your existing local area network (LAN) and is non-invasive. There's no need to upgrade the LAN or install Microsoft Exchange® - thus avoiding a costly and impractical solution for the small to mid-size business. (VIP requires Microsoft Outlook 2000, 2002, 2003, or 2007.)
