Snom 870 Large Scale Installations
Since the launch of the Snom 870 VoIP Phone this year, many ProVu and ProTalk resellers have used the Snom 870 for large scale installations.
Virtual BLF keys and the 'drag and drop' touch screen features have proved popular along receptionists. The added conferencing bridge for 5 way conferencing is great for the executive business user.
Added security features such as incorporation of 'secure client certificate authentication' into the Snom 8xx series are also attracting more Snom users than before who may have chosen an alternative when looking at the 3xx series.
