Part II. Developing Outbound Application

The outbound call capability of Voicent Gateway is quite powerful and flexible. It contains a call scheduler for making and schedule outbound calls. Voicent AutoReminder and Voicent BroadcastByPhone are both outbound call applications.

The callnow sample presented in this chapter is similar to the callpad sample for AutoReminder. However, callpad sample does not directly communicate with Voicent Gateway, instead it relies on AutoReminder for the communication. AutoReminder interface is much easier to use but less flexible.

It is assumed that you have read Part I of this tutorial.

You will need to have the gateway client library (part of the developer annual subscription) for the later half of this chapter.
