Avaya End User Consultancy (Software Associate)
The Avaya telephony system has a multitude of different features and functionality on offer with new features becoming available through software upgrades. This offer is designed to ensure that system managers give the correct features and functionality to end users at the beginning of an install or to optimise usage of a system which has been in place for while.
When most new technology systems are implemented the main aim of the project is to ensure a simple functional system on go-live. The individual needs of the people using the technology on a day to day basis are often overlooked or may change over time. This course will enable the system manager to optimise the efficiency of personnel by matching their needs with the technology system ability.
Using Avaya Site Administration, a semi-bulk upload software tool, all the data will be uploaded by the Software Associate onto the system ready for User Acceptance Testing between the client and the software associate. The software associate will also be present at the go-live to make any minor changes to the system to allow the engineer to concentrate on the Avaya Media Gateways and Media Servers.
