How the Ooma Office iPad app can boost your productivity

One of the great things about Ooma Office is flexibility. You want a traditional desk phone with all those useful buttons to make things like transferring calls easier? You can do that. Need to take your business calls on the go? You can do that, too. Want a fully featured desktop app that lets you get work done and take calls at the same time? Done.

Now there’s another way to boost your productivity. With Ooma Office for iOS v7.0, there’s now a native iPad layout. With this stunning new iPad-specific design, you can do everything you can on your iPhone, but with the blessing of space and convenience.

That means you can take calls, listen to voicemails and recordings, conduct team chats, fax and more! But how can you do it? Let’s walk through it.

Multitask better than before

Say you’re a restaurant that uses an iPad as your point-of-sale system, maybe you’re using a stand from a company like Square to make it easy to check out customers. Now with one device you can handle both your POS and your phone system. Just connect a Bluetooth headset to your iPad and accept calls right there at your checkout station.

The luxury of space

The most common activity on your phone is scrolling and swiping. While smartphones can be super handy for some tasks, they can be a chore for others. If you’ve got a long list of calls you want to review, an iPhone would just take a long time to scroll through. Even worse, you’d have to open each call to see the details.

Not with the iPad. With its three-pane display, you can easily swipe through call history and see details right next to it. You can even see if the call was recorded or not. Check the number, the length of the call, extension numbers and more.

On the go or in the office

If smartphones are best for on the go and desktops are great for staying in one place, the iPad is really the perfect hybrid device and that’s reflected in the Ooma Office app, too.

When you’re on the go, Ooma Office on the iPad can do everything you need it to do, but the magic really happens when you’ve got to switch things up. Want to work at a coffee shop or a table at your restaurant? Plop down your iPad with a keyboard and text easier than ever in team chat.

Three more things

The gorgeous new design of Ooma Office v7.0 is reason enough to download the app, but it also comes with three new features to improve your productivity.

With One-to-Many Messaging, you can easily send bulk messages customers. Scheduled Do Not Disturb lets you avoid the noise when you need to lock in and get to work and Avatars makes it easy—and fun! —for you and your team to identify each other.

Ooma Office your way

Ooma Office is a flexible, powerful way to stay connected to your business and customers. From crystal-clear calling with a traditional desktop phone to not missing a call on the go and anywhere in between, Ooma Office makes it easy for you do what you need to without the worry.
