Macintosh support

[Mark N]

Tally up another vote on this one.

We have execs, video, & publishing running osx.

Would be nice if they could take advantage of pcm.

and of course they have iphones, haven't been able to slow that down at all since 2.0 & activesync support. --not that I'd really want to slow it down, it is a nice device.

-UPDATE- If we could get satisfactory citrix support, this would be acceptable to us. It may be the simplest way to get OSX, & 64 bit working for now.

Agreed - MAC version of software needed - publishing and advertising firms here are using MAC's.

Thanks.

I'd love to have a Mac call manager. I just put a ShoreTel system in my business. I have 50+ PC's on the network, but my business partner and I have Mac's and love them. As I replace the PC's on the network, I hope to replace them with Mac's. The only software I need, that I can't get for the Mac, is the call manager. I hope ShoreTel is working on it.

Any chance of an official response?

Official? I don't think so. They don't like to openly discuss Roadmap items, but trust me, this board is read by many Shoretel employees and execs and they hear our pleas.

I would expect to see a web-based (maybe Java?) call manager before I would we see an exclusive Mac client. Only makes sense... A Web-based client would work on multiple OS's, like MAC, Linux, 64bit MS,a nd maybe even windows 7.

Personally, I think it would be cool to build a Call Manager around the Adobe AIR concept.

I would love to see a Mac version or at the very least a "stable" Java version, while we are a Windows shop for our applications, we have about 10% Mac users, myself included.

As what Charles says officially no. There is a White Paper on the shoretel website if you have log in privileges, that is about running the PCM on a MAC.

It is roughly running some Windows Emulators. Now the New PowerMacs (Aka InTel / Windows) should run PCM "Technically"
