A steady uptick in headset use, and the rise of unified communications platforms such as Skype for Business, Lync, Cisco Jabber, (and many more), have contributed to the need for Busylights in office environments around the world, especially in the prevalent open office design.
The
Kuando Busylight is a 3-in-1 solution:
- It rings and flashes on incoming calls preventing missed calls.
- It provides visual presence to the open office, stopping interruptions.
- The Busylight software (Skype for Business only) provides valuable hot key functions for easy call handling.
Plenom has announced that it recently updated the free software for the Busylights and
KuandoBOX.
The new software features include:
- Mute on Away – When in the ‘Away’ state, Busylight will not ring – nice for your neighbor!
- Brightness Setting – Easily control the brightness of your Busylight
- Default volume for Omega will now be set at 25%
- Default brightness for Alpha is lowered from high to normal.
What's the difference between the Alpha and the Omega? The
Alpha Busylight has a smaller profile and features a smart click On/Off system for monitors/ laptops. The
Omega Busylight has a larger light and is ideally suited for cubicles.
KuandoBOX unifies your presence by connecting to both desk phone and computer, to update user’s status to "Busy" in Skype for Business / Lync when talking on the desk phone.
