1 Overview Dell Business Phone is a business communications application integrated within Dell Mobile Workspace the secure workspace component for mobile devices from the Dell Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solution. Powered by Vonage Business Solutions, Business Phone enables you to have a separate business phone service on your personal devices, as well as robust business phone features to keep you connected and productive. Capabilities Business Phone provides a unique phone number and service. If your smartphone is lost or stolen, an IT administrator can delete your Business Phone contacts, call logs, and other data by remotely wiping the Mobile Workspace. With Business Phone, you won t need to provide your personal cell phone number to the people you do business with every day, unless you want to. Business Phone can be used on an ios or Android smartphone, or tablet with wireless service from any wireless carrier. Business Phone can make and receive calls using a data network connection, or your cellular voice service. WiFi is a great way to make sure service works well inside buildings. Cellular networks can provide coverage and service while traveling. Because unlimited calling options are typically included in wireless service plans, using your personal cell phone number should have no cost impact. If you want to use 3G/4G data networks, be aware that will generate data use against your carrier data plan, as described in Provisioning on page 3. Features Calling over WiFi or 3G/4G wireless carrier networks HD voice (G.722) for calls over data networks Calling over cellular voice service if data networks are not available Dial from contacts list or keypad Call forwarding Call hold Do Not Disturb Greetings that can be personalized Voicemail and voicemail transcription with delivery to your email On-demand call recording 1
2 Initial Setup Network Connections Business Phone is a softphone application that allows you to make and receive calls over an active data network connection on your smartphone or tablet. The data network connection can be a WiFi network or a 3G/4G cellular data network. 3G/4G Caution: Some mobile network operators may prohibit or restrict functionality over their networks, such as the use of VoIP telephony over a cellular network, and may also impose additional fees or other charges. Be sure to check the terms of your agreement with your cellular phone carrier. Dell will not be held liable for any charges, fees, or liability imposed by your cellular/mobile carrier for use with Business Phone. TIP: Avoid data roaming charges by your cellular carrier when you are outside the US by turning off data roaming and using WiFi hotspots instead of your cellular network. This way, you won t have to deal with international roaming charges. Phone/Caller ID Note: Any time softphone functionality is used, the Caller ID associated with Business Phone will display. This means the Business Phone Caller ID is used for all outbound calls, even those that are made through your cellular voice service. During provisioning, you will have the choice of using your personal cell service that will deliver your personal Caller ID when making calls. 2
Provisioning Provisioning activates the Business Phone application. It registers your account and makes services available. Once the activation is complete, you are given a business phone number, and you can select the phone service to use for outbound calls Business or Personal. Business: All calls you dial will use your business phone service. The person receiving the call will see your Business number as your caller ID. Personal: All calls you dial will use your personal cellular service. The person receiving the call will see your Personal number as your caller ID. Always Ask: If you need to frequently select whether the business or personal phone number will be used for outbound calls, select Always Ask Me. You will be prompted to select which number to use each time you dial a call. Before deciding which number to use, read Phone/Caller ID Note on page 2. 3
Application Settings After Provisioning After provisioning, the Business Phone application is configured to make and receive phone calls. You can change the application configuration by using the Call Settings menu. If you are connected to a Wi-Fi or 3G/4G cellular data network, Incoming calls will be delivered using a data network. If you are not connected to a data network, your calls will go to Voicemail unless you have Consecutive Calling enabled. In that case, the Business Phone will ring alternate lines in succession (see Consecutive Calling on page 25). Outgoing call handling is selected during provisioning, but you can change the selection later by using the Call Settings menu: Business: All calls you dial will use your business phone service. The person receiving your call will see your business number as your caller ID. Personal: All calls you dial will use your personal cellular service. The person receiving your call will see your personal number as your caller ID. Always Ask: To be able to change the number used for outbound calls on a per-call basis, select Always Ask Me. Each time you make a call, you will be prompted to decide which line to use. Before deciding this, read Phone/Caller ID Note on page 2. WiFi networks can provide good service quality indoors in places such as home, office, hotels, and other locations where cellular network signals may not penetrate. Also, WiFi calling is essentially free with no impact to your cellular service plan. Using cellular voice service when not connected to a WiFi network provides good service quality while you are mobile. Cellular networks are built to deliver mobile services, so your Business Phone service quality will be determined by the quality of your cellular service provider s network. Incoming and outgoing calls that are delivered using your personal cellular voice service will consume minutes of your personal cellular service plan. If your personal cellular service includes unlimited voice calling, there will be no cost impact to you. You have the option of making and receiving calls over 3G/4G cellular data networks. If you select this option, incoming and outgoing calls made over a 3G/4G cellular data network will consume data from your cellular data service plan. To help you understand the impact of calling using your personal data plan, consider this example: a 10-minute call will use 3.33MB of data which is similar to sending a picture using Multi-media Messaging Services. If you experience audio problems while using cellular data networks, consider removing this network for the list of calling options for Business Phone. 4

10 Call Settings Incoming Call Behavior If you want to change how calls are handled after provisioning, use the Settings menu. You can set Business Phone to handle incoming calls without alerting you. You can route calls to another phone number or send them directly to voicemail. Select Nothing to turn off all call rerouting options. 22
Call Forwarding This enables you to designate a phone number where all incoming calls will be sent when answering immediately is not possible or desired. All calls will be sent to the forwarding number until you turn off Call Forwarding by selecting Nothing or another option from the list. Whenever you select Call Forwarding, you will be prompted to enter a number. If you have used Call Forwarding before, the forwarding number you previously entered will automatically be displayed. Select OK if you would like to use that number or enter a new number for forwarding. 23
Do Not Disturb This setting enables you to send calls directly to voicemail without ringing your Business Phone number. All calls will be routed directly to voicemail until you select a different option. 24
Consecutive Calling This feature allows incoming calls to your Business Phone number to be delivered via your cellular voice service if you are not connected to a data network. The default settings allow incoming and outgoing calls to be delivered over Wi-Fi or your cellular voice service. By enabling Consecutive Calling, if you are away from your home or office and not connected to a Wi-Fi network, incoming calls to your Business Phone number will be delivered via your cellular voice service. To make it easy for you to activate Consecutive Calling, the calling list is preloaded with your Business Phone number as the first entry and your personal cellular voice number as the second entry. Just tap the selection circle to the left of Consecutive Calling to activate the feature. We recommended that you enable Consecutive Calling. If Consecutive Calling is not enabled and you are not connected to a Wi-Fi network, calls to your Business Phone number will go to voicemail. To insure Business Phone calls don t use your cellular data plan, 3G/4G networks are turned off by default in Call Settings. Consecutive Calling can be used with multiple numbers. If multiple numbers are in the Consecutive Calling list, an incoming call will be delivered to the first number on the list. If there is no answer within 6 rings, the call is rerouted to the second number on the list and so on, until the call is answered. If the call isn t answered after ringing all numbers on the list, then the call goes to your Business Phone voicemail. To set up numbers for Consecutive Calling, tap the selection circle on the left. Tap the + symbol to the right to enter a number for forwarding. Repeat these steps to add additional numbers. All numbers entered will be added at the end of the Consecutive Calling List. Once you select Consecutive Calling, it remains in effect until you select a different option. 25
Voicemail Settings The voicemail settings in Business Phone allow you to take advantage of features like emailing voicemail recordings, and sending calls directly to voicemail at all times. Voicemail to Email Address This enables you to set the email address for the Voice Mail Transcription feature when the Send to Email option is On. When a voicemail is received, you will receive an email with a voice to text transcription of the voicemail message. You can choose to have the voicemail message deleted from the Voicemail List, after the email transcription has been sent to your email address, by selecting Delete after sending. NOTE: The Name recording function shown in this screen is for future use. 26
Greetings You can record a personal greeting that is played for calls that go to your voicemail. Tap the microphone on the right of Missed Call and follow the prompts to record your personal greeting. Tap the blue Play arrow to listen to your greeting. NOTE: The Name recording function shown in this screen is for future use. 27
Ring Tones The application provides a range of different ring tones. To quickly identify incoming Business Phone calls, you may want to set a ring tone that is different from the ring tone for personal cell phone calls. 28
