Setting up and Deploying BT120 in a Home or an Office Environment

The BuddyTalk BT120 is an Alexa Voice Service (AVS) enabled intelligent speakerphone and smartspeaker suitable for use in a home, office or conference room environment. With AVS, the BT120 brings you a broad range of AVS smartspeaker features such as standard Alexa questions & commands, timers, alarms, reminders, and voice-enabled control of AVS-supported IoT devices. A VoIP service provider’s account can be configured for both inbound and outbound calls (“BuddyTalk Calling”) throughout the service provider’s network coverage area. 

The BT120 has a variety of convenient call control mechanisms: utilizing a tablet, an integrated touch panel on the device, a smartphone app, or a standard telephone.  During calls, users can communicate either using the hands-free speakerphone, or using a smartphone or standard telephone handset for added privacy.
