Extend Your Reach To Facilitate Teamwork
Never Alone. Integrate & Automate
Traditionally a phone system functions in isolation, with little or no ability to interface with other university systems and services. On the contrary, 3CX includes built-in integration options with Office 365, databases, CRMs and other network-enabled systems.
As a quick example, consider a 3CX script-based IVR (Interactive Voice Response) menu, that services students’ course enrollment requests. The student calls the IVR, enters the ID for the chosen course and 3CX will deliver the student’s telephone number and course selection to the university’s course management system. What’s more, by using the Call Flow Designer (CFD), you can create call flows to automate your procedures, from course billing to announcements via text-to-speech. And CFD does not require any programming knowledge!
Keep In Control Of Access & Security
Universities need to maintain controlled and secure access to areas like offices, labs, and dorms. 3CX supports popular video door phone devices which can be used with 3CX. Through this, you can attend to visitors seeking entry, or even control activity and access to specific areas – doing away with employing costly security personnel. You can also use PA systems connected to 3CX, to perform announcements in university common areas, classrooms and halls.
No Master’s Degree Required To Administer
With 3CX, administrators have freedom of choice! Install with ease on Linux, Windows, Raspberry Pi and on popular cloud providers like Google Cloud, Azure, and AWS. Not only is it easy to install, but easy to manage too. Keep your data safe by securing and managing your backups, recordings and voicemails with flexible options, on local or remote storage (FTP, SSH and SMB).
In Conclusion
Universities are by definition communities of teachers and scholars. 3CX bridges the communication gap between these communities facilitates learning and strengthens relationships. It is the perfect fit for organizations that value communication as the primary means of education. And it comes with an affordable price tag, to boot
