Accessaphone

One of the ways in which accessaphone makes phone systems accessible and Section 508 compliant is by providing Audible Caller ID. This is a requirement on the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template.^[2] This is specifically useful for users with vision loss as the identification of an incoming call gets announced with the use of the software. The United States Access Board - the agency who is responsible for Section 508 - deployed accessaphone along with a Cisco phone system for their employees who required certain access to specific phone features like Audible Caller ID or those employees with physical impairments who needed voice access to the phone.^[3]

In 2009, The American Foundation for the Blind did a case study and determined that accessaphone was compliant with Section 508 and did in fact enhance Voice over IP telephony equipment for users needing certain access to that equipment.^[4]
