Recent Release Notes: 6.7.1.3, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.2.1, 7.3, 7.3.1, 7.4, 7.5, 7.5.0.1.

This version requires version 7.0 (94939). See the article Updating to Switchvox 7.0 for instructions on migrating to version 7.0.  Please note that after you update the PBX, you need to clear your web browser cache after you update, to ensure the new features display correctly.

There are new features that do not have corresponding sounds in the 7.0 language sound packs. In versions 7.0 and later, if you are using a language sound pack and a new feature, you will need to record custom sounds for use with the new feature (e.g., Virtual Queues in version 7.3).

In the update to 7.3, each sub-admin’s permission for Manage Extensions was applied to the new Tools > Call Queues permission.

See the How do I use Switchvox Call Queues article for details about the new Call Queues page and Advanced Queue settings.
