Please note: Server Updates must be installed on your Server or Host PC, not your workstation (unless your workstation is also the Host PC) – they cannot be installed directly on your workstations. Make sure all users are logged out of PhonePad as the PhonePad Server will be stopped during the update and then restarted once it has completed. Workstations will be automatically updated when PhonePad 5 Workstation is started on each workstation. Important: When downloading and installing an update from your My PhonePad account, make sure it’s actually the update and not the server setup program.
Please read: You do not need to install every update between this one and the last update you installed. PhonePad uses a smart update system that compares your current PhonePad system with what’s in the update, works out what changes are required, and then makes those changes. So if you are a few versions behind don’t worry. You can skip all of the updates in between and go straight to this update.
Depending on the anti-virus software you use, when you install a Server Update your AV software may class the updated software as a different program due to the change in binary signature. If you experience speed or freezing issues after an update, you may need to reconfigure your AV software to stop real-time scanning of PhonePad. This may need to be done on the both your Server or Host PC, and your workstations.
All PhonePad executables and DLLs are digitally signed for your protection.
You can confirm that a file is safe by right-clicking on it and selecting Properties from the popup menu, and then selecting the Digital Signatures tab.
You can download the update from your My PhonePad account.
If you are a current trial user you can download the update by logging in to My PhonePad Trial using the email address you used to start your trial.
Please contact Support if you have any problems or questions.
If you’re unsure of how to install updates, please watch the video on this blog post.
You will need to have a current Update Plan to install this update. If your Update Plan has expired, you will need to renew it before you can install this update.
If you would rather have the Server Update installed for you, you can arrange for us to remote connect and install it. The cost is $37 and you can schedule a date and time here: https://www.cybercom-software.com/remote-server-update-assistance.htm .

PhonePad has a nifty little feature that allows you to send SMS text messages to any of your clients.
To do this though, you first need to set some things up. We’ll go through that here.
First things first.
We don’t have the infrastructure, capacity or resources to be an SMS Gateway provider, so you’ll need to open an account with a 3rd party provider.
Currently, PhonePad supports SMS Global and Clickatel.
Once you have your SMS account, you’ll need to set it up in PhonePad.
Enable SMS AccessNext, you need to enable access to the SMS feature.
Give Individual Users SMS AccessIn the section above we enabled general SMS access to users, but there is one final step to give user access. You have to grant access to each user individually.
You may wonder why we did it this way.
It’s so you can disable or enable SMS access for everyone with a couple of clicks.
But when SMS access is enabled, you may not want all users to have access. That’s why this next step enables or disables access individually for each user.
The user should now be able to send SMS messages.
Sending SMS Messages
Sending SMS Text Messages from a Phone MessageYou can also send SMS messages by selecting a phone message, right-clicking on it, and selecting Send SMS Message from the popup menu.
The caller details will be pre-filled for you.
That’s ItThat’s all you need to do. Once you’ve done all that you’re good to go.
Have fun.

Sticky notes, also known as Post-it notes, are a ubiquitous office supply that have become a staple in workplaces and homes around the world. The original idea for 
the sticky note came from Spencer Silver, a chemist at 3M, who was attempting to create a strong adhesive. In 1968, he accidentally created a low-tack, reusable adhesive that was not very useful for 3M’s existing products.
Several years later, a 3M employee named Art Fry was struggling to keep his choir hymnal open during practice when he remembered Silver’s adhesive. He used the adhesive to create bookmarks that would stay in place without damaging the pages of the hymnal. After realizing the adhesive could be used for other purposes, Fry and Silver began developing a new product.
In 1977, 3M introduced Post-it notes to the market. They were initially available in only a few colors and sizes, but their popularity quickly grew. The company invested in advertising and marketing campaigns to promote the product, and by the early 1980s, Post-it notes had become a household name.
Today, Post-it notes are available in a wide range of colors, shapes, and sizes, and are used for a variety of purposes beyond their original intention.
Sticky notes are not a reliable or secure way to log phone calls. Here are some reasons why:
Sticky notes have their place in a busy office. But as versatile as they are, they’re not suited for logging phone calls. It is recommended you use a more secure and organized system such as purpose-built software.
PhonePad was specifically created for logging, tracking, and managing phone calls. It has dozens of features designed to save you time and money. We have been developing PhonePad for over 25 years and regularly release updates.
The money you spend over a 12-month period for sticky notes would quite likely pay for PhonePad (which is a one-time cost).
But don’t take my word for it. Try it out for yourself at no cost.
Many moons ago Telexis, the creator of Phoneslips, decided to close permanently. Unfortunately, this left Phoneslips customers without any future 
updates or support.
When we heard the news we spoke to Telexis a few times about getting information on how they stored their data. The plan was to develop a tool to migrate all of the Phoneslips data into PhonePad.
We already had a lot of ex-Phoneslips customers using PhonePad, and many more making the switch. A migration tool would have been an enormous help to them.
The bad news was that Telexis were unwilling or unable to provide that information.
This left Phoneslips users in a difficult position as only their contacts data could be transferred into PhonePad.
Over the years we have tried to get a fully functioning copy of Phoneslips so that we 
could analyze it and work out how the data was stored and structured.
So far we haven’t had any luck. Although we had quite a few Phoneslips users say they would send us a copy, we never received any.
We’ve decided we’re going to give it one more red-hot go.
What we’re after is a genuine, fully functioning copy of Phoneslips, either with sample data or real data. We do not want any pirated, warez, or other illegitimate copies. We also don’t want any updates as they require the full version of the Phoneslips.
We are happy to accept the original installation software (digitally, not on CDs), or a zipped existing installation.
If you are able to provide this, and we confirm that it actually works, we will give you free licenses for:
Of course, you will also get 12 months of updates included. This is a total value of $321.
Now we only need one (1) fully functioning copy of Phoneslips, so the first person to provide us with that will get the free licenses.
Naturally, if the copy of Phoneslips we receive contains any real data, it will be destroyed once we have worked out how to extract data and build a migration tool.
Please contact sales@cybercom-software.com if you are interested.
If we are successful, this will not only help you migrate your Phoneslips data, but it will also help all of the other Phoneslips users that have already switched to PhonePad, or are still using Phoneslips and want to make the move.
Oh, one more thing. The migration tool will be free.
