Agares Media Releases a Completely Free Auto Attendant, Small Businesses Rejoice

PR Log (Press Release) – Jun 16, 2009 – You've used auto attendants a million times, in fact, you use one almost every time you call a business before you're transferred to an actual company representative.  In the past, these systems have cost thousands of dollars, but with the release of the freeware program Agares Auto Attendant for Skype software, the cost of owning and running an auto attendant is now virtual nothing.

Agares Media originally released the first version of Agares Auto Attendant as a commercial product back in November 2008.   However, the company has been slowly moving away from commercial products and has been focusing more on open source and freeware software over the last six months.  This release, version 1.2.1, is the first freeware edition of the software, which has been downloaded over 3000 times, and can be downloaded directly from http://www.agaresautoattendant.com or http://www.agaresmedia.com

Agares Auto Attendant works in conjunction with Skype, which is software that lets you make and receive phone calls from your PC.   When you combine Skype with Agares Auto Attendant, you now have the ability to setup one or more auto attendants to help with your business.  

With the free release of Agares Auto Attendant, everyone stands to benefit.  Whether you own a small mom and pop store, a medium sized business, or a multinational corporation, the benefits are the same: a free, quality auto attendant that can easily replace expensive hardware or subscription based auto attendant services.
