Push to Talk from eCoachManager
Do you miss the convenience of 2 way radio?
Regular users of the cloud based eCoachManager system will be aware that we frequently make enhancements to the software.
We want to ensure that our clients get to take advantage of some of the very latest technology advancements that are available.
One such enhancement that is just going live is our brand new “push to talk” functionality.
What is Push to Talk?
Push to talk technology isn’t new and we are not looking to invent the wheel here!
Often push to talk is referred to as press to transmit as they are in essence one and the same.
A system of two-way radios are used to communicate, with one end being used as the reception and the other as the transmitter. These roles are “swapped” when a user presses the momentary button.
Citizens Band (CB) radio is a classic example of push to talk.
Range and reception are sadly two issues which limit the usage of traditional push to talk devices.
Why Push to Talk from eCoachManager?
We wanted to develop an enhancement to a system that many coach operators already use and bring it into the digital age.
As leaders in technology the challenge was to ensure that operators and drivers alike had a very simple, but beneficial function. Our other key considerations were:
- Reliability
- Clarity of Voice Signal
- Safety
- Ease of Use
Using the latest technology the Push to Talk function from eCoachManager really delivers.
We are confident that users of eCoachManager and the Push to Talk function will appreciate another strong addition to our bus and coach management software.
