Highlights
- The AudioCodes 400 series of HD IP phones now supports native
voice dialing capabilities
- By using the VocaNOM voice dialing solution, corporate contacts
are available for voice dialing with automatic synchronization to
the corporate address book
- AudioCodes' Voca speech recognition technology provides high
detection rates with over 95% call routing success
AudioCodes (NASDAQ: AUDC), a leading provider of voice
networking solutions that enable enterprises and service providers
to transition to all-IP voice networks, today announced the launch
of speech-driven dialing capabilities for its 400HD series of IP
phones.
By using VocaNOM, a voice-dialing solution designed and
developed by AC Voca, the AudioCodes Speech Recognition Division,
AudioCodes IP phone users can easily place a call to any other
employee of a company simply by saying his or her name, thus
instantly making work calls on-the-go with great simplicity and
ease.
VocaNOM has already been deployed across multiple business
customers, global regions (USA,
Germany and Israel) and business verticals, proving to be
a great go-to voice dialing solution for everyday organizational
needs. The speech recognition engine used as part of the VocaNOM
solution is a self-developed engine with special expertise in
identifying contact and department names, and more than 95%
accuracy levels in speech recognition abilities in multiple
languages (English (U.S.), German and Hebrew).
Additionally, thanks to AudioCodes' expertise in IP telephony,
deploying VocaNOM can be achieved rapidly with full
interoperability with various corporate PBXs. Real-time
synchronization with the corporate address book (via Active
Directory) means that the VocaNOM solution takes no more than a few
hours to become fully operational, making company contacts readily
available for voice dialing from the office space or outside of
it.
"We are witnessing great success with VocaNOM across various
types of organizations," said Tzacki Naim, AC Voca General Manager.
"Any organization with a few hundred employees or more obtains
great value by using a simple calling solution. With the VocaNOM
voice-dialing solution, employees simply press one button on their
desk phone, say any name and get connected. For employees who
need to place work calls to various contacts in very short time
periods, VocaNOM becomes their preferred dialing solution, as these
workers can make calls without having to look up or store corporate
phone numbers or have their calls handled by the organization's
phone operator. C-level managers, sales managers, or any other
organizational functions that act as a main contact touch point,
see VocaNOM as a true productivity enabler, in the office space and
especially when driving or on the go. VocaNOM makes a great
communication assistant tool that is well-adapted to the needs of
busy workers who appreciate time-saving, productivity and the
freedom to make instant work calls from anywhere, at any given
time."
