|  | 15 | = What is a 'Softphone' =
|  | 16 |
|  | 17 | A **softphone** is a software-based phone that lets you make and receive phone calls using your computer, tablet, or smartphone (VIA our [[Noixa>>doc:Main.Noixa.WebHome]] app) instead of a physical desk phone. It connects to Axion systems over the internet and functions just like a traditional office phone.
|  | 18 |
|  | 19 | With a softphone, users can place calls, answer calls, check voicemail, transfer calls, and use other features directly from an app or browser—whether they’re in the office or working remotely.
|  | 20 |
|  | 21 | Softphones are ideal for remote work, mobile users, and anyone who wants the flexibility of using their extension without being tied to a physical phone.

|  | 35 | == User ==
|  | 36 |
|  | 37 | Thats you!
|  | 38 |
|  | 39 | A **User** represents a real person who uses the phone system. A user is usually linked to one or more **extensions** and is what allows someone to log in and manage their own phone features (//if you have privileges to do so//).
|  | 40 |
|  | 41 | Users are mainly used for:
|  | 42 |
|  | 43 | * Logging into the Customer Portal
|  | 44 | * Checking voicemail
|  | 45 | * Managing call forwarding, call recordings, reports and other personal settings
|  | 46 | * Being added to **User Groups** for easier management
|  | 47 |
|  | 48 | Think of a User as the “profile” for a person, while the extension is the phone number they use.
|  | 49 |
|  | 50 | A User **does not control call routing** by itself. It simply defines who the person is and what features they’re allowed to access.
|  | 51 |
|  | 52 | == Privileges ==
|  | 53 |
|  | 54 | In order to use the softphone you have to have a few things set up in the Customer Portal. First you will need a user account created and in order to do that we will need an email address to send the verification/account set up email to. Privileges needed in order to use the softphone are in the picture below.[[image:CP Main Privileges 11.png]]
|  | 55 |
|  | 56 | == User groups ==
|  | 57 |
|  | 58 | Are a way to put users (extensions) into simple groups so they’re easier to manage. Instead of setting options for each user one at a time, you can change settings for the group and everyone in that group gets the same access.
|  | 59 |
|  | 60 | Think of User Groups like folders:
|  | 61 |
|  | 62 | * Put similar users together (Sales, Support, Office Staff, etc.)
|  | 63 | * Give the group access to certain features
|  | 64 | * Remove or add users without redoing settings every time
|  | 65 |
|  | 66 | User Groups are most commonly used to control:
|  | 67 |
|  | 68 | * What users can see and do in the **Customer Portal**
|  | 69 | * Basic **permissions and access levels**
|  | 70 |
|  | 71 | User Groups **do not control how calls are routed**. They are only used for organizing users and managing access.
|  | 72 |

|  | 74 | = Troubleshooting =
|  | 75 |
