ESI C-Plus
Here is a quick overview of features offered with the ESI C-Plus phone system. But, quickly before I begin, a brief overview of ESI.
ESI (Estech Systems, Inc.) isn’t as recognized by the mainstream as say NEC or Toshiba, but this company is just as legitimate. Since 1987, ESI has designed and manufactured telephone systems and remained at the forefront of new technologies.
ESI is a financially stable company is expected to be one of the major players in telephone equipment and services for years to come.
ESI C-Plus Features
Spoken help is a touch away.
Need assistance using your phone? Just press the HELP key for the friendly Verbal User Guide. The built-in user tutorial simplifies training new employees and makes it unnecessary to keep track of a printed manual.
Intelligent Caller ID
ESI’s patented technology displays the caller’s name-and-number information with each call, and even stores it with each voice mail message. On your ESI Feature Phone, use the Esi-Dex™ speed-dial feature for single-touch storage of caller information for callback any time.
Unique message handling
The ESI C-Plus has patented features that make it a snap to share information with your team. ESI’s Quick Groups™ lets you send a message to other user mailboxes by pressing the blue VOICE MAIL key followed by the desired station keys — easily creating a voice mail distribution group on the fly.
Message Recycle Bin
The system stores up to 10 of your most recently deleted messages in a Message Recycle Bin from which you can easily recover them.
Call recording
The ESI C-Plus lets you record any call. Simply press the RECORD key on your ESI Feature Phone and the system will record the call — even conference calls and personal reminders.
Call screening
On the ESI C-Plus, you can screen calls just as you do with your home answering machine. Listen as callers leave messages in your mailbox, and intercept a call by lifting the handset.
Off-premises “reach-me”
A caller forwarded to your mailbox can reach you at an external number — such as your home or cell phone. The ESI C-Plus also makes it easy to change your “reach-me” number remotely.
