NEWS New Euphoria app enables workers to be connected anywhere E Euphoria director John Woollam says staff can simply log in to the Euphoria system using their personal Euphoria TMS login credentials. Company staff can now make and receive calls as if they were sitting at their desks by simply downloading the free Euphoria Softphone app from Google Play or IOS Store. “To personalise the Euphoria Softphone experience, we allow users to integrate their personal TMS account including access to their address book, company extensions and Call Detail Records (CDRs),” he said. uphoria Telecom has launched an app that will enable mobile workers to be connected wherever they are. Euphoria Softphone seamlessly integrates all contacts on iOS or Android and provides a full call history. It will also populate all company extensions as well as any additional registrations linked to the user’s personal TMS account. The app offers clear call quality in areas where 4G (LTE) mobile network reception is good. It uses technology that is specifically designed to ensure the best quality audio at the lowest bandwidth. Woollam said: “Technology has become the centre of the home and the workplace, it allows us to always be connected and creates a continuum of work and life. “The fact is, there are remarkable tools and technologies that can enhance and help companies be more effective, they need to embrace them before it is too late.” ////////////////// Veeam moves closer to becoming $1billion software company V eeam Software, a leader in Intelligent Data Management for the Hyper- Available Enterprise, has announced results from Q2 2018, marking its 40th consecutive quarter of double-digit record bookings growth.
