Last week we introduced the all-new, API-driven Admin User Interface for Wazo 17.07. But pretty pictures are only the icing on the cake. It’s what’s under the hood that really matters. And today we want to walk you through the new IVR User Interface with Incredible PBX for Wazo. The Wazo developers heard from many of you that were missing the GUI-driven IVR tools available in other products. And we’re pleased to tell you it’s another Home Run for Wazo.… Read More ›

Today we want to talk a little about design choices and IVRs. First and foremost, we don’t want to leave anyone behind during our XiVO adventure.

It’s been almost seven years since we first looked at FusionPBX and FreeSwitch. So we’ve spent the last couple months taking a fresh look at the platform and WOW! What a difference seven years make. We will hasten to add that FusionPBX is not a platform for folks that are new to the VoIP world or networking.
