Q Manager

Q Manager is a Windows application that allows users to monitor and interact with calls. Your PBX must be on version 4.6.1 in order to use Q Manager, and 4.8.0+ to use the integrated chat feature. Licenses are sold to allow extensions access to the Q Manager feature.

If you have a user that has MAC and not PC, Q Manager software will not run. To accommodate this, we have created something we call Web manager. To access, the user will still need to have a license assigned to their extension for Q Manager, but they will access a webpage instead of running a piece of software. The address for Web Manager would be <PBXipAddress>/ippbx/WebManager. The user will be prompted to login, the username will be their extension number, and the password will be their voicemail PIN. Web Manager does not have all of the advanced functionality of Q Manager, and is typically used more as a means of monitoring the status of multiple extensions.
