When using the commercial EPM I select timezone GMT-3 (for Brazil) and enable DST but then the file generated for yealink phones (and potentially other brands as well) show time zone for Argentina/Buenos Aires (which is also GMT-3).
However, while both are GMT-3 the DST rules are very different for Argentina and Brazil so right now all my phones are off by one hour and there is no way I can fix it except by making an edit to the basefile.
Also note that having an entry for "Brazil GMT-3" will work for me but not for all people in Brazil because while most of Brazil territory is withing the GMT-3 time zone, the DST rules are different for different states.
I really think EPM tried to take a shortcut on the timezone settings but it won't cut it, I would much rather choose from a list of time zone names like "America/Sao Paulo" like you find in many linux os installs, that is the only way I see that can make it work properly for everyone.
