<div><br></div><div>MobileLink looks great to make outbound calls using cellular minutes with your Broadworks number. Does MobileLink do anything for inbound calls from Broadworks? Are you just supposed to use Broadworks Anywhere with answer confirmation for inbound to mobile?</div>

this is BroadSoft has three primary product lines: 1) BroadWorks, 2) BroudTouch, and BroadCloud which have some overlap and integration into what they consider the overall UC ONE solution. SMS is part of the BroudTouch product family which includes, Business
Communicator, Mobile Link and SMS.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

next. The newer release of BTBC Client (R20) specifically addresses these issues and have dramatically improved since the initial release 9.0 and 10.0. I enjoy using my smart phone as my business line (well an SCA). I use it when I’m working from home,
commuting, and hand off from calls.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">What carrier and service provider multitenant softswitch and pbx systems are on the market today besides Broadsoft? We use a Broadsoft solution today. We like the redundancy that
Broadsoft offers, and the fact that it just works. However, they are starting to seriously lack features, and there are too many Broadsoft competitors. We are finding that our Broadsoft offering is no different than Comcast, Verizon, or other local providers
that offer Broadsoft services to.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We are really looking for something that integrates well for the mobile worker. The ability to use their cell phone with the service is key for us. The day's of clients buying $300
Polycom IP phones are slowing down. However, people understand the value and are willing to spend $600 on a smartphone. <u></u><u></u></p>
