MacSTAC: Mac OS X Business Tools: There Are More Than You Think"Parliant's Phone Valet and Phone Herald are without a doubt the best telephony solutions for Mac OS X. Phone Valet enables you to easily create and manage a phone system that includes phone trees, voice mailboxes, and onscreen notifications about incoming calls. It also supports a robust set of filtering rules based on information received from caller ID. Perhaps more importantly, Phone Valet offers these features with an incredible ease of use—whether you have an installed PBX or VoIP phone network, or just one or two incoming lines. It offers all the features of much more expensive phone system solutions at a much lower cost and is perfect for small businesses that cannot afford to hire a receptionist or invest in a commercial phone system . Its companion, Phone Herald, is an equally amazing tool for creating automated outgoing calls—such as those to remind clients about appointments or mass notifications about events or cancellations." — Ryan Faas
Mac Edition Radio: Full-Featured Business Telephone Solution"In this interview with Parliant’s Kevin Ford, he explains how their award winning PhoneValet application can transform your Mac into a full-featured telephone solution for business. While the Mac has a reputation as a tool for creative use, it’s also a great platform for business use, and Parliant has built a reputation for their rock-solid telecom products. We also discuss their newly released PhoneHerald application which turns your computer into an efficient telephone broadcaster." — Harris Fogel
ComputerWorld: Mac OS X 'an ideal platform' for SMBs"Hands down two of the most powerful business tools for Mac OS X are Parliant's PhoneValet and PhoneHerald." — Ryan Faas
Mac360: Use Your Mac to Phone Home to Everyone"Think of PhoneValet as an answering machine system on sterioids with more features than Jim Carrey. It makes your Mac answer the phone and it’s been flawless for our home office use for years." — Carol Mary Miller
O'Reilly: Hello, your Mac is calling."One of the more interesting, niche applications to come out of MacWorld Expo 2006 is Parliant’s PhoneHerald. It allows your Mac to automatically call someone, deliver a message, and record or otherwise handle their response. For example, if you’re the secretary for a large community service group, you might use it to gather RSVPs for an upcoming party. At the end of the day, you’ll know exactly who has responded, who wasn’t reached, and how many party hats you should buy." — Gordon Meyer

Customer Testimonials
"I am a Communications Officer for a Union local. I am using PhoneHerald as a phone tree to contact the membership for meetings and events. Prior to PhoneHerald, we had a number of people manning phone tree, to call a base of about 200 people. With PhoneHerald, I can run the entire tree on my own with two call-outs (each lasting about 1+ hours on a single line) to cover AM and PM shifts. This has increased meeting and event attendance considerably. So, in general, PhoneHerald has been a great tool for our Union, by increasing member-involvement, and minimizing our workload. Thank You Parliant!" — Glen Skidmore, B.C. Ferry & Marine Workers Local 5.
| "This is the first time ever that a full-featured automated group dialer has been available for Mac-based medical practices, and we are very excited to work with Parliant to offer a solution to our more than 1000 clients that is integrated with our premier Mac OS X practice management applications." — Mark Hollis, President. MacPractice Inc.
