What Have You Loved Most About Your ComDial System?
The ComDial DX-80 and DX-120 operating platforms were
originally designed for small to medium sized businesses to have an affordable
system with easy-to-use features and functionality. Many business owners, users and system
administrators fell in love with ComDial’s integrated voicemail, live call
screening, auto-attendant and other enterprise feature applications. It was one of the first modular system to
allow remote modem access for administrator’s to log in and make configuration
changes remotely. What features have you
enjoyed most?
ComDial’s History
Comdial was founded in Oregon in 1977 as a
telecommunications research firm, however, from a historical perspective you
can say that Comdial’s history dates back to the 1800’s. When Alexander Graham Bell’s patents expired,
two Chicago Bell Telephone employees formed the Stromberg-Carlson partnership,
entering the independent telephone equipment market to produce a better
telephone.
In 1982, after several mergers and acquisitions, Comdial
became the owner of the Stromberg-Carlson brand after ComDial acquired the
telephone manufacturing division of General
Dynamics for $53.7 million, gaining the company a major product
design and manufacturing operation. With
that acquisition, Comdial gained the heritage and experience of producing the
highest quality telephone instruments available.
Throughout the 1990s Comdial was a large manufacturer of
telecommunications equipment in the USA.
Some of Comdial's more popular discontinued products include the DSU and
DSUII, the Concierge (marketed to hotel/motels), FXT/S, Unisyn, and the Comdial
Digitech and Executech systems.
Vertical acquired ComDial in 2005 and continued to market
many ComDial systems under the Vertical ComDial brand.
ComDial’s End of Life
As with all great technologies, there comes a point where
the advances in today’s technologies outstrips and replaces those technologies
we loved in the past. With most
technologies when this happens, you end up with an expensive paper-weight.
Thankfully, due to the excellent leadership at Vertical,
what was a great investment in technology yesterday can be a great trade-in for
new technology today. Vertical has
announced a limited time trade-in program for all ComDial Dx-80 and Dx-120
systems still in the market today.
This Trade-In program expires October 31st,
2014.
If you would like to have your
original investment in ComDial’s technology yield some additional benefits
