ProVu eSys Developments

ProVu have been working on the provisioning system recently, developing two new features to help manage firmware updates on IP telephones.

1. Counted Software Upgrades

We can now upgrade your phones gradually. For instance, you could specify to upgrade ten phones per day.

This means in the unlikely event of any problems with the upgrade occuring, then your support desk will not be overwhelmed.

2. Night Time Firmware Upgrades

ProVu can now carry out scheduled overnight firmware upgrades. If we manage your phones, we can configure such that firmware upgrades happen out of business hours.

Your customers won't ring your support desk when a phone suddenly starts upgrading in the middle of the day. They probably won't notice their phones upgrading at all.

In order to discuss scheduled firmware upgrades, just give us a call or contact us for further details.

Siemens Gigaset Tip - Automatic PSTN Failover

siemens

All Siemens Gigaset VoIP DECT handsets sold by ProVu support 2 VoIP and 1 PSTN / Landline call simultaneously.

Now all of the base stations within the range, have the ability to perform automatic failover to your landline. Quite simply, if for any reason your VoIP service or PBX fails causing your internet connection to go down, the Siemens Gigaset will automatically send calls over the landline connection plugged into the base station instead. No chance of missing an important call.

Just configure your base station to fail over to PSTN on the web interface.
