Call Lync IE Accelerator

screenshot1The Call Lync IE Accelerator is an Internet Explorer Accelerator which allows you to select any number and call via Lync, not just internationally formatted numbers.

Microsoft already provide an add-on to allow you to place calls from Internet Explorer via Lync, but it will only recognise numbers which are fully formatted (e.g. +441243123456), Many web pages don’t conform to this standard, instead showing numbers in a local format. However, the chances are that your Lync setup will recognise them, especially as you are likely to be calling numbers from your local area. Call Lync IE Accelerator will pass the number to Lync and allow you to place an outgoing call.

Call Lync IE Accelerator is free to use, and can be downloaded from the Call Lync IE Accelerator page.

LyncAutoAnswer.com was created as a collaboration project with Scott Hanselman to make it easy for anyone to use both UI Suppression Mode, and automatically answer incoming video calls. You can either just take the library and create your own kiosk, or start with the sample solution which shows a user’s presence, photo and activity, and automatically answering incoming video calls.
