SUTUS teams up with InGenius to add Intelligent Call-handling to their Small Business IT and Communications Solution

The latest addition to SUTUS’ award-winning office-in-a-box , the SUTUS Connector offers small businesses the power of existing search and management software for faster, easier, more seamless call handling, saving them time and money.

June 9, 2010, Vancouver, B.C. – SUTUS Inc., the company behind the SUTUS Business Central™, a device that houses all the IT and communications needs for the small business, franchise, or branch office has teamed up with InGenius, specialists in telephony software and software engineering to offer the SUTUS Connector. This PC application effectively closes the service gap for small business with intelligent call handling features that save time and money by harnessing the robust search and management capabilities of other common office applications.

The SUTUS Connector lets employees access their Polycom® phone directly from the Windows taskbar of their own PC workstation. With this new feature, SUTUS and InGenius are giving small business the ability to leverage the combined power of Microsoft®, Google®, and their Polycom® phone, in a time-saving, cost-effective way.

The SUTUS Connector grants employees access to immediate, direct links to customers and other key contacts. The features include click-to-dial, caller Line ID pop-up prompts and Microsoft Search. The application also simplifies traditional search and call procedures. For the small business employee, it means less time navigating contact details, and more time engaging actual clients and prospects.

“By combining the office PC and the office phone in this way, we’re shortening the runway between the companies and their clients,” said Shawn Chute of SUTUS. He added, “We’re pleased to be teaming up with InGenius on a product that is simplifying small business communications. We are confident that the SUTUS Connector will not only make the conventional customer call-out procedures obsolete, but it will also bring considerable ROI to small businesses by leveraging the power of other common applications.”

“SUTUS Connector’s rich PC-telephony integration features ease of installation and use, and built-in softphone to further enhance the competitive edge that SUTUS’ complete office communication and IT solutions bring to their small business customers,” says Dale Gantous, CEO of InGenius.  “Being able to reach out or respond to customers instantly is a key competitive advantage that SUTUS and InGenius each strive to bring to our customers – it’s a dynamite combination, and we’re thrilled to be working with SUTUS as our OEM partner.”
