<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Quick question. With an old phone
system a receptionist receiving a call has 1 button to push to transfer
calls to a specific extension, with Asterisk, a receptionist would actually
put the caller on hold, pick up another line, call the extension, ask if
the person is available, hang up pick up the caller again and transfer.
To me it's seems a long way to simply do a receptionist job. Is
there a way we can program the system, or make an application, that would
provide the same functionality ?</font>
<br>

for my offices across Canada and this particular feature is preventing
us from choosing Asterisk. Any info would be greatly appreciated.</font>
