In addition to the distributed call control software, the ShoreTel IP Office 
system provides a distributed voice application platform with open telephony 
application interfaces of TAPI for call control and TAPI Wave for media play and 
record. 
Voice application servers can be distributed across the enterprise to optimize 
system availability and network resources. Even though there are multiple 
servers, the ShoreTel IP Office system is still managed as a single image 
system. 
In addition, the ShoreTel IP Office system includes TAPI compliant voice 
applications that are bundled with the system at no additional charge, these 
include: 
Voice Mail
Automated Attendant
Automatic Call Distribution
Call Detail Recording
Unified Messaging
Desktop Call Control
	Instead of voice applications from multiple vendors with multiple management 
	interfaces, the ShoreTel IP Office system eliminates complexity with a 
	complete suite of bundled voice applications. This is unmatched in the 
	industry by either new or legacy communications vendors. 
	
	Desktop Applications 
	The Personal Call Manager software includes personal 
	productivity software that integrates voice mail, calendar and database 
	contacts with Microsoft Outlook, and provides each user with a simple, yet 
	powerful Windows interface to all call handling functions. 
	
	The Operator Call Manager software delivers the information 
	and control features that enable businesses to cost effectively give callers 
	a “high touch” level of personalized attention. Company operators, executive 
	administrators and departmental receptionists can all use this flexible call 
	administration software to provide optimum service to callers. 
	
	The Agent and Supervisor Call Manager enable Automatic Call 
	Distribution (ACD) and brings affordable and easy-to-use call agent 
	applications for workgroups and informal call centers within any 
	organization. Since leading CRM applications vendors including Apropos 
	Technology, Interactive Intelligence, Lightning Rod, Eclipse, Nsoft, Sonant, 
	Rockwell and Cellit support the Shoreline platform, the Shoreline system is 
	ideal for full service CRM environments such as formal call centers.
