Yes,

but we use it for weekend paging.  Manager needs to get ahold of someone 
out on the plant for during the weekend, manager calls in, presses a key 
combination and is prompted to record the page.  Manager is parked, the 
message is played along with the parking slot.

We also have the page come across the Polycom phones and an overhead 
bell play before the announcement.  If the call isn't answered within 
100 seconds, the caller is dumped back into the menu, where they can try 
again if they'd like.
