As part of its intention to bring its small business VoIP systems to the marketplace, Microsoft has released its Response Point phone system to manufacturing.

The systems, which include VoIP call processing and features such as voicemail, call forwarding and integration with Microsoft Outlook, are targeted at small-business customers with up to 50 users, though they will scale higher.

Response Point systems are built from the ground up as small business solutions and are not designed to work as branch office systems off larger OCS deployments.

Microsoft’s OEM partners, D-Link and Quanta Computer, will soon have general availability for products based on the software. Both partners will price their products below $3,000.

D-Link and Quanta are preparing to ship product bundles within the next few months that package Microsoft software with their base hardware units, gateways and phones.

Microsoft is planning to launch its Office Communications Server 2007 and other communications products at a launch event in San Francisco on October 16.
