What is HUD exactly?

HUD is Fonality's Unified Communication software application which brings all of the power and control of a traditional operator switchboard right to the desktop.

Using HUD, Fonality customers have the ability to:

  • See the current status of other employees (on the phone or off, available for chat, type of current call, etc.)

  • Drag-and-drop to transfer calls

  • Click to leave a voicemail

  • Send SMS

  • View Call Queue Statistics

  • Check their own Voicemail

  • Much, much more...

All of the options listed above are permissible via the Extensions --> groups tab of the Fonality Control Panel.  Administrators can control virtually every aspect of the HUD Client with one exception:  HUD Chat is available for everyone and cannot be turned off.
