Team-Signalisation

Question
-
We're using Microsoft e-phone 6.2 and LCS 2005. I just installed OCS 2007 and made some voice-calls and tried some settings. You can signal to multiple phonenumbers but I didn't find an option to define teams and configure 'team-signaling' (e.g. a,b,c are in a team. After a doesn't answer a call after 15 seconds, b and c are notified, that a is missing a call. b or c may take over this call).
I believe, this should be an absolute must for every voice-solution. Are there plans for integrating this, when OCS 2007 heads for RTM?
Yours

Welcome to the forums. The feature you describe is called a hunt group and won't be in this release of OCS. Thanks for the feedback though.

Thank you Tdar329
I already thought, that I'm the only one using Hunt Groups... Call groups doen't seem to be fully supported too: you can choose to ring ONE additional number to your own number...
I think implementing Hunt Groups is simply a MUST!

Peter: Don't think your the only one. Your Not. You can add Call Groups to my comments as well. I have no way to use this product without them.

Telephony features seem to be very poorly implemented.
OCS 2007 is an entry-level product not an enterprise-level product (from VoIP telephony standpoint). I’m disappointed.
Why not to use e.g. Trixbox/Asterisk, 3CX, ... ?Wednesday, March 28, 2007 9:40 PM -
We'll get hunt groups in second release.... 2009. Oh, great humor!
