Contactless Call Shift helps employees route or shift calls between devices, from cell to any desk phone and back remotely without a push of a button. It improves productivity, quality interactions and employee focus by providing convenience and privacy when needed in the office.

- OpenTouch Conversation One, a web-based application available on the OpenTouch suite, now comes at no additional cost to provide essential UC for all users - instant messaging, presence, document sharing and web presentation, directory lookup and most importantly control of the desk, mobile or home telephone.
