Hosted Voice Customers

Take your VoIP Phone Home

We believe in voice security and voice quality as a necessary thing. In you office, a special voice router accomplishes this.

For home use, we have two options.

  1. Home router for $15/mo. Allows us to monitor your Internet and provides VPN security. Best  when voice quality must be near perfect.
  2. $0/mo. We remotely configure your phone for built-in VPN.  Works if you have Verizon FIOS or can tolerate occasional voice quality blips.

Forwarding Features included with all plans

  • You should have a call flow designed with a forwarding method implemented such as night mode, holiday/weather mode or “break” mode already in place. We update these at no cost.
  • For remote phone answering. Ask for the Panasonic or Yealink “first day” phone guide. We have embellished options for taking calls remotely.
    • Forwarding your desk phone to cell phone.
    • Office main number receptionist forward mode to cell phones.
