Depending on your Fuze service, you can configure Fuze to use one or more of the following as your preferred device:- Fuze Desktop - Calls are placed directly from your Fuze app using VoIP technology.
- Fuze Web - Calls are placed directly from Fuze using VoIP technology.
- Fuze Mobile - Calls are placed from Fuze Mobile using VoIP technology (if connected to WiFi), or your mobile device’s data plan (if allowed, and if not connected to WiFi).
When you place a call with Fuze Mobile, your Fuze Mobile application rings. When you answer, Fuze calls the number you clicked. - Desk Phone - Calls are placed using your desk phone or physical device line using the phone number provided by your IT administrator.
