Voice Personals Line
Voice Personals is a platform to build a custom entertainment system. Because it has been developed using TeleFlow, it can be customized fitting many different business requirements. This application was deployed at a location which has since ended its operations, so we have chosen to make this application available for you to download and modify. Generally it has most of the components you will need to create a fully automated voice application by, but we expect that you will probably link it to a web site for much of its automation.
Voice Personals is a voice-mail system specifically created for entertainment systems where subscribers can record greetings for other callers to review, record user profiles which are matched against other subscribers, change their greeting or profile at any time, browse other subscribers based on matching profile information, listen to greetings as well as leave messages for other subscribers, and listen to messages left by other system subscribers and callers.
