Status Message Updating
Employees can perform a status message update when they leave the desk for any reason, such as lunch or a meeting.
There’s no guesswork to return times – employees input their exact return information in the status message area upon leaving their desk. This feature can also be used to indicate when you are in the office but are not available or do not want to be disturbed.
Presence Sensing!
Works on even your most forgetful of employees
Out’n About! for Outlook contains a presence sensing feature that automatically alerts you when you use your computer and are currently Checked Out to ensure you have not forgotten to check In when returning to the office.
Mobile SMS Reminders™
The Outlook Reminder and Out’n About! Check IN Alert windows are useless if you are not sitting in front of your computer.
The Out’n About! for Outlook Mobile Reminder feature solves this problem allowing you to automatically forward Outlook Reminders and Out’n About! Check IN Alerts to your mobile phone, pager, or any e-mail address when you are away from your desk.
Calendar Status Events
Schedule future status events (e.g., meetings, travel, or vacation) based on Outlook Appointment items.
When the appointment occurs, Out’n About! will automatically change your status based on the settings you define.
WYWO Message Pad
You no longer need a message pad or a separate phone messaging program. When you receive a call for another employee, you can quickly check their availability using the board, and then move right to the Message Pad – saving time and eliminating the chance of lost message slips.
