IBM Lotus Instant Messaging

Remark! UM V4 uses the Lotus Instant Messaging's awareness feature to find users when they are logged in. Users are notified of incoming calls with a chat message, allowing users to manage their phone time more effectively.

Remark! UM also includes a 'Bot' which allows users to control their Unified Messaging options such as fax and pager settings. Users can even update their telephone password using the Remark! Bot, which is always available in their contact list.

Remark! UM V4 also includes support for accessing other Phone Notes applications from the AutoAttendant and from the Subscriber menu. This allows helpdesk, hotlines and other Phone Notes applications to be seamlessly integrated with Remark! UM, making it much more attractive for customers to deploy a wide range of Workgroup IVR applications.
