3CX V15 SP4 - New Features and Release Candidate Versions for Linux
Dear friends! First of all, we apologize for the delay in the publication of articles, which happened solely for technical reasons. We have done everything necessary so that such delays are no longer repeated. We continue to publish informational articles and technical manuals for you as before!
Holidays are approaching, and we have prepared a gift for you - the release of 3CX v15 Service Pack 4, filled with new features and important fixes. And 3CX V15 Linux Edition received Release Candidate status!
The main improvements in the new release: automatic configuration of DECT and FXS devices, allowing you to configure a DECT base station with many terminals (handsets) with just a few clicks of the mouse - each terminal is assigned its own SIP number; New reporting module and numerous bug fixes for report generation. In the new release, we also narrowed the functional gap between Windows and Linux versions of the system - in the Linux version there was a fax server, fault tolerance system and support for external user directories.
The update, as usual, is installed through the Updates section of the 3CX interface.
