Estimates vary, however, approximately 45 minutes a day can be saved by the business user whose vmail, email and faxes can be routed to a single inbox. The benefits only increase with the number of missed calls, misdialed outbound calls, wrong numbers, out-of-office message exchanges, etc. Dial-by-name instead of number has been reported to save telephone-intensive staff 15+ minutes a day alone. In the future, with technology metrics, the speed of communications will be measured in OV-Organizational Velocity, the speed of communications throughout an organization.
