2018.2.0 Revolution Software Release Notes

What’s New in Revolution 2018.2.0

Dial Monitoring

Dial Monitoring We’ve introduced a new feature called Dial Monitoring that allows customers to monitor dialed phone numbers from any supported IP phone* on the network. When a number matching your filter criteria is dialed, it triggers a notification and sends an alert to designated personnel. This feature is particularly useful for monitoring emergency 911 calls (or other specified numbers).   Dial Monitoring can trigger a notification that includes the dialer’s caller ID, the date and time that the call was placed, along with a brief message to help reduce response time in the event of an emergency and streamline business processes. *Dial Monitoring currently supports Polycom VVX IP phones and phones connected to Mitel Connect PBX systems. Support for other PBX platforms is on our product roadmap.  

Support for Multiple Mobile Geofences

In the 2017.3.0 release, we rolled out a sneak peek of our Geofence functionality for Revolution Mobile notifications. In this release, we’re pleased to share that Revolution’s Geofence feature has been enhanced and now offers customers the ability to create multiple geofences! *Please note – Geofences have been moved to the Configuration > Areas tab in the Revolution UI.
