Changes to the main database are automatically sent to the other MultiVOIP units. The MultiVOIP provides standard dial tone, ring, and busy signals, so users may not even realize that their call is being routed over the IP network. Calls were generally clear and free of echoes and other extraneous noise. We made hundreds of test calls using the outside lines, and most people we called couldn't tell that we weren't on a standard long-distance line. Our sole complaint about the MultiVOIP is its lack of user controls.
Any user can dial any other MultiVOIP and make calls, creating the potential for abuse.
The MultiVOIP's logging and call accounting features are weak, so administrators can't get a good handle on who is using the MultiVOIP and where those users are calling. Multi-Tech is aware of these issues and plans to address them in future releases of the MultiVOIP firmware. MultiVOIP Voice over IP Gateway. Update your software and make your PC run better.
