We are pleased to announce the release of PhonePad 5.26.2 Server Update<\/strong>, which is available for immediate download.<\/p>\n

Additions and Improvements<\/h2>\n

Caller ID Addition<\/h3>\n

Support for CallerId.com devices was added.\u00c2\u00a0 The devices from CallerId.com<\/a> are a relatively inexpensive way of adding Caller ID features to your network that are compatible with most phone systems.<\/p>\n

When using one of these devices (depending on the model), PhonePad will track all Incoming and Outgoing Calls, whether they are answered or not.<\/p>\n\"PhonePad<\/a>\n

It will log unanswered phone calls from people who call outside of your normal business hours.<\/p>\n

See how many calls you get from customers by viewing a history graph that shows the calls you receive over a period of time.<\/p>\n\"PhonePad<\/a>\n

Of course, as the system has Caller ID functionality a popup message will display who’s calling.\u00c2\u00a0 You can quickly take a message while this screen is being displayed.<\/p>\n\"PhonePad<\/a>\n

You can also take a message by double-clicking on any call in the Call History<\/em> list.<\/p>\n

What’s coming next?\u00c2\u00a0 We are working on adding Caller ID support for VOIP<\/em> systems.<\/p>\n

Message Overview Improvement<\/h3>\n

The charts on the Overview<\/em> screen have been improved to make them easier to read.\u00c2\u00a0 We will also be improving the charts used elsewhere in PhonePad in upcoming releases.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

New Debugging System Helps Us Discover and Fix Any Bugs<\/h3>\n

Bugs are an unfortunate side effect of software development.\u00c2\u00a0 We do our best to not introduce any bugs, and fix them as quickly as we can when they are reported to us or we find them ourselves.\"PhonePad<\/a>We have added a new debugging system built-in to PhonePad to assist us.\u00c2\u00a0 It catches, analyzes and reports any bugs to us.<\/p>\n

You won’t actually see this improvement as it all happens behind the scenes.\u00c2\u00a0 Most of the time, if it catches any bugs you won’t know it’s even happened as no error messages will be displayed.\u00c2\u00a0 You’ll be able to continue working without interruption but we will know about them and will start working on a fix.<\/p>\n

This system should help us discover and fix any bugs much quicker than before as it’s very good at tracking down those really hard to find ones.\u00c2\u00a0 And it saves time for you having to report them to us, send screenshots, and so on.\u00c2\u00a0 Although we may still have to do that occasionally.<\/p>\n

Fixes<\/h2>\n

There are quite a few minor fixes in this release which we discovered as a result of using the new debugging system for a few days.<\/p>\n
