Siemens Adds Wi-Fi Calling to its Corporate Unified Messaging App

Siemens Information and Communication Networks introduced version 2.0 of its HiPath CorporateConnect application that allows employees to use a single communications device, telephone number and voicemail box for corporate voice communications. The new version offers two new graphical user interface options that allow users to leverage Windows Pocket PC PDA devices or a standard Web browser to manage their real-time communications anywhere they have wireless access, including WiFi 802.11b/e hotspots. This includes placing and receiving calls over WiFi-enabled PDAs. Siemens said the new functionality is aimed at leveraging the emerging WiFi wireless networks in corporate environments as well as in the growing number of public WiFi access points. Users can also direct calls to reach them via an alternative telephone, including mobile phones, by entering that phone’s number into the CorporateConnect client profile.
