In addition to the standard voice mail, call forwarding, caller ID and other basic features, Nevada Comstock Communications (NCC) gives your company the ability to offer the following
new cutting edge services:
This is one of NCC’s favorite features. You can add extra phone numbers to your primary line, with any area code of your selection (in line with area code availability from the provider). So, if you are from San Francisco and decide to move to Seattle, you can add a San Francisco number as an additional number (virtual number) on your primary Seattle line. This allows your family and friends to call you like it is a local number.
Rings multiple phone numbers all at once (or also in sequence for Call hunt/Find me feature). Have it ring your cell phone, home phone, office phone, and other phone numbers of your choice. The first phone to be answered gets the call. With this option calls are not missed and they are easily transferable to the appropriate party.
This is a great feature for call management. Never miss an important call again. You can set this feature to ring multiple phones when someone calls your primary Digital Voice phone line. Most service providers allow you to choose from any number, US or international, cell phone or regular phone, and up to at least 4 numbers. So, when someone calls your primary phone number, your home phone rings as well as any other numbers you have set up to ring. Whichever one you pick up first gets the call. This can be a great feature for the small or home office too.
Place a Call Me Button on your own websites and HTML email signatures using a simple Configuration Wizard within the Web based CommPortal. This allows third parties to call them with the simple click of a mouse. The CommPortal Call Me Button offers compelling revenue-generating opportunities that appeal to both business and residential subscribers:
- Apply to business email blasts, putting prospects in direct contact with a sales agent.
- Enhance business and personal website responsiveness with a "Call Now" option, allowing site visitors to get in touch easily and immediately.
- Connect with visitors in all new ways by attaching the Call Me Button to blogs, MySpace and Facebook pages.
Call Me Buttons may be used across a wide variety of web browsers including those found on most common mobile phones.
With this feature anyone in the US can call your number for no charge.
Have kids at college who complain about how much it costs to phone you each week? Have a small home business and want it to look professional? Your grandmother is on a fixed income and can't afford the charges to phone you? Then this is a feature you need to consider. With a toll free number anyone in the US can call you for free. When someone calls your toll free number your primary Digital Voice phone line will ring. Service Providers typically charge a monthly fee (around $5) for this service, with some incoming minutes free of charge, and then a fixed rate for minutes that you use over your free monthly quota (typically 4 to 5 cents/min). We provide this service at no additional cost.
The option to use software loaded onto your computer to make phone calls instead of using your phone. This is helpful when traveling because you can use your laptop to make calls and you do not have to bring any additional equipment.
This is a fantastic option for those people who travel with a laptop. You have your phone integrated into your PC. All you need is a microphone and speakers or headphones to be able to call anyone. Some service providers have this option in addition to your Digital Voice phone service, but more typically this is provided as a separate service. This is not a required feature for the typical Digital Voice user.
When you are traveling internationally, customers and family will not have to pay high international rates to reach you. Bring your Digital Voice system with you and with high-speed Internet access, friends and family can reach you on your local Digital Voice number.
One of the great features and advantages of Digital Voice is its portability. All you need is a broadband internet connection and your Digital Voice enabled phone, ATA adaptor, or PC based 'softphone' and away you go. Your phone number is associated with your Digital Voice device (either your Digital Voice enabled phone, your ATA of your PC based 'softphone' feature), so no matter where you go, your phone number will be the same. As long as you have your phone plugged into a broadband internet connection, your phone will ring when someone calls your phone number, no matter where you are in the world. If you are going to visit the in-laws for a week but want to keep in touch with people back home, then just take your ATA with you, plug it in and make and receive calls as if you were back home. Going on a business trip for a few days. Take it with you and keep in touch with family and friends. Please remember when traveling internationally that you are responsible for your ATA which often belongs to the Service Provider. |
