Got an iPhone app ready that enables easy control of Call Forwarding and DND settings for a BroadWorks phone account. Ping me if you would like to test it….
update: 20100530: it’s available on the app store now….
Looks great, I’ve just tried it out, and it works for me (note – you put in your providers EWS name, not XSP).
I think that the use of the “save” button on the settings page conflicts with the iPhone design metaphor that things are done as soon as you change them.
Looking forward to click-to-dial with call-backs from the call logs (just rely on the user to have BroadWorks Anywhere with ‘alert all locations for click to dial’ set – or better yet, offer to set it on for them if they don’t have it selected.

Hi Roger,
Thanks for you comments.
I’m not sure I fully understand what you mean with EWS vs XSP – the hostname you see in the example is actually pointing to ews.xdp.broadsoft.com (BroadSoft’s sandbox) – dont really have an influence on that name
I’m aware of the Save button – but my thinking was that it was to slow when commiting the changes on the fly.
As for click-to-dial – working on it
Should it not be possible with just the “Remote Office” and Call Control Client” services assigned?

Kim – like the app is this a web app or built with XCode?
Are you also going to add remote office ?

Hi Jed,
Glad you like it!
Wrote it using xcode – and yes – remote office is what I’m working on now.
