Setting parameters for each function requires only a mouse click on the icon, which will open a new screen with all the available. options for that task. Clicking on the "Record and Save Message" icon, for example, brings up a screen with all the necessary choices of how long the message. can be, where to save it, and more. The only exception to this, and the only place where TFLX is less than intuitive, is in recording outgoing sound messages. But even that step goes quickly once you get used to the unconventional approach.

For debugging a new script, you can print out your program shown in icons or simple text, which can be easier for larger, more complex scripts. The program, too, suggest possible fixes to debug scripts that won't run.

How does it perform?

We found TFLX an excellent solution for voice processing users who want to get up and running quickly, without learning programming languages or extensive procedures.

For Macintosh users, it is an excellent alternative in a voice processing market dominated by PC products. The product's modular approach also allows users to start out with an economical system that can be upgraded as necessary. Perhaps the product's biggest drawback is the need for multiple Macintoshes

to handle more than one incoming line, although less than $500 will buy a used Mac with sufficient RAM and hard disk space to run TFLX

For combination of ease of use with powerful phone applications TFLX stands out as an excellent and unique solution
