The best voicemail system for the VS is the VS-VML, the one someone says is a pain. It is designed specifically for this switch. Iwatsu later developed an adapter card which would allow the use of it in the full-sized switches. I work with several different voicemail systems, and I find the VS-VML to be one of the easier systems to configure and manipulate. (I may be a bit biased, however).

Since you only have two analog ports to work with, you may be limited to only a few stand-alone systems. While it may be possible to integrate some other system to the switch, it would mean re-programming all the voicemail settings in the switch, which are default settings for the VS-VML.

The VS-VML isn't really any easier or more difficult to program than any other voicemail system assuming you have the proper programmers and a little experience with the way Iwatsu goes about things.


Sometimes the thoughts in my head get so bored, they go for a stroll through my mouth. This is rarely a good thing.
