  • Use case#1: A secretary's phone shall display the call status of the boss's line, allowing the secretary to know whether the boss is on a phone call or not. This will enable the secretary to make the decision to put the new caller on hold or let them through to the boss.
  • Use case#2: Call centers and customer support groups have also a need for BLF: it enables employees to see if their colleagues are free to take a support call or if their supervisor is on another line and unable to help another customer.
  • Use case#3: BLF is needed by teams working on a specific project: supervisors can monitor team members' extensions and vice versa so all team members are aware of each other's current status.
