The advantages of the Wave IP 2500 business communication
system — its modular design, Applications Inside™ architecture,
extensive family of supported endpoints, and powerful
management tools — are delivered to our customers by the
talented and capable members of the Vertical Wave Certified
Business Partner community.
As your business evolves, so do your communications
requirements. When making an investment in an IP
phone system, your business demands a cost-effective
solution that:

Provides outstanding value in the core business
applications you need today, such as desktop call
management, unified messaging, call recording,
fax and auto attendant.

Lets you selectively run advanced applications to
address future business opportunities and improve
customer service, such as self-service interactive
voice response (IVR) applications and contact center
— without costly additional servers.

Supports thousands of sites but is easy to manage,
reducing administrative time and costs.
What’s more, today’s IP phone system must also
deliver investment protection by:

Leveraging your investment in the phones your
employees use today — such as IP, digital or analog
phones and devices — as well as soft phones, voice
badges and other voice-enabled devices you may
use in the future.

Creating a seamless call experience for both staff
and callers, whether employees work in the office,
at home, or on the road.

Facilitating the growth of your business cost-effectively,
by letting you add users and applications in
a modular and straightforward way, without requiring
expensive forklift upgrades or additional servers.

Reducing network and voice costs by leveraging
integrated voice and data connectivity services like
SIP trunking.
Whether you have a handful of employees or hundreds,
and whether they’re located in one office or distributed
across the country, the future of your business
depends on the smart choices you make today.
Vertical Wave — It’s the Right Call.™
A NEW PRODUCT, A RICH HERITAGE
Vertical Wave is the result of more than two years and millions of dollars of research and development
investment by Vertical Communications, a leader in next-generation IP telephony solutions. Based on
proven technologies that have met the needs of demanding customers like CVS/pharmacy, Staples and
Apria Healthcare, and featuring a range of brand-new capabilities, Wave is the reflection of Vertical’s
rich heritage of technical innovation and its ongoing commitment to enhancing customer communications.
The Wave ViewPoint™ application,
available to all users on the Wave
system, makes it easy to initiate,
receive and manage calls.
VERTICAL WAVE — CHANGING THE GAME
Vertical Wave changes the game for nextgeneration
IP business communications.
The Vertical Wave IP 2500 Business
Communications System is a new generation
of communications asset that
delivers enterprise-level communications
capabilities at a small business price.
Every aspect of Wave is designed to enable
your organization to enhance customer
service, improve employee productivity
and control communications costs. Wave
extends the value of business communications
with its unique Applications
Inside™ architecture, which supports an
embedded portfolio of communications
applications as a fully integrated solution
— eliminating the need for costly additional
servers. A set of high-value base applications
come standard on the Wave IP 2500
platform including Wave ViewPoint,™ Visual
Voicemail, Unified Messaging, Presence,
Call Recording and Auto Attendant. The
award-winning Wave ViewPoint desktop
call management tool delivers an easy,
intuitive and powerful set of communications
capabilities to every user in your
organization, dramatically extending the
capabilities of a physical phone.
A range of optional Wave add-on applications
are already part of the Wave system,
and can be dynamically deployed at
any time — a capability no other solution
can claim. These include Wave Contact
Center,™ Wave Conference Manager,™ Wave
Voice Server™ and Wave Fax Manager,™ as
well as a variety of industry-specific applications
delivered over time. To ensure
seamless operation of the Wave system
and ease of administration among multiple
sites, Wave offers network-wide management
and reporting tools.
With integrated voice services and support
for SIP services, Wave allows small
businesses to reduce costs and enjoy the
network flexibility offered by IP.
The real Wave breakthrough is the elegance
with which all of these capabilities have
been engineered into one single, streamlined
and extraordinarily cost-effective
platform to provide real-world performance
advantages and superior value.
VERTICAL WAVE —
THE ONLY ONE WITH APPLICATIONS INSIDE™
Unlike solutions that offer support for
adding IP applications at a later date, but
which require additional servers and other
components — not to mention long deployment
schedules and business disruption
— Wave is unique in its Applications Inside™
architecture. Wave’s portfolio of embedded
applications is included “in the box”
with every Wave IP 2500 system. You
choose what you need, when you need it.
BASE APPLICATIONS
Base applications, such as Auto Attendant,
Call Recording and Unified Messaging, are
included at no extra cost. Wave ViewPoint,
the award-winning desktop communications
tool, is included for all users, providing
control over every aspect of every call
on both the PC desktop and the telephone.
ViewPoint Desktop Call Management
ViewPoint is the intuitive call handling
software that makes it easy to place
and transfer calls and manage contacts
with drag-and-drop simplicity. ViewPoint
imports contacts from your Microsoft
Outlook directory, making it easy to
search for phone numbers. Make and
share notes about a particular call, and
bookmark sections of a voicemail message
to identify critical parts of a call.
Visual Voicemail
View and manage your
voicemail messages using ViewPoint.
Wave Voicemail supports up to 10,000
mailboxes.
Unified Messaging Let users manage
email and voicemail messages through
a single desktop interface such as
Outlook.
Presence Management Using ViewPoint,
check the availability of everyone using
Wave. Confirm if a colleague is at a
meeting, traveling or available by phone
before initiating a call or conference or
forwarding a call to that individual.
Call Recording Record all calls, calls on
demand, or on a customized schedule
with a single mouse click to confirm customer
orders, support compliance efforts
and facilitate training and coaching.
Auto Attendant Provide a professional
call experience by directing prospects,
customers and business partners to the
right person or department, without the
intervention or cost of an operator.

Wave Global Administrator makes moves, adds and changes a breeze.
Wave Global Administrator
This intuitive, Web-based management tool makes it easy to set up the system, handle moves, adds and changes, and administer applications licenses. Global Administrator
includes robust diagnostic and monitoring capabilities.
ADD-ON APPLICATIONS
Optional add-on applications are preinstalled
and ready-to-run. They can be
licensed and dynamically launched at any
time. The free 30-day trial license lets
you try each application before you buy.
Wave Contact Center
Optimized for any business unit that interacts with customers such as technical support, inside sales, and customer service. Wave Contact center agents can be located
wherever there is an Internet connection — at headquarters, in a branch office, or at home. Agents use the same ViewPoint application with which they are already
familiar. Administrators maximize customer satisfaction and agent performance with enterprise-level contact routing and queuing. Advanced monitoring and
reporting on virtually any aspect of contact center operations are included.
Wave Conference Manager
Provides complete “meet me” conferencing support for up to 60 parties, plus unlimited “listen only” conferencing, without the added costs of a third-party conference
service provider. Users can also create multi-party conferences on the fly using ViewPoint.
Wave Fax Manager
An integrated fax
server supports inbound and outbound
faxing.
Wave Voice Server
This fully-integrated
voice application server enables you
to develop and deploy customer-friendly
business-enhancing, self-service applications.
As business needs evolve, use
Wave Voice Server to create your own
library of value-added speech-enabled
applications.
MANAGEMENT TOOLS
Wave Global Administrator, included with
Wave, provides a broad range of management
and diagnostic capabilities. If your
employees are distributed among multiple
locations, or if you require multi-site reporting
for your organization, you may consider
these optional Wave management tools.
Wave Global Manager
This powerful
Web-based multi-site management tool
complements Wave Global Administrator
by allowing you to track, schedule and
automate routine system maintenance
tasks, such as backups and software
upgrades.
Wave Global Reporter
Automates the
collection and analysis of call detail
information for a single system or across
a network of systems at multiple locations.
For these multi-site deployments,
Wave Global Reporter automatically
consolidates call records and applications-
level data from each site, accessible
through both global views and drilldown
reporting.
