Feature library

Everything your team expects from a business phone system

Features are organized by category. Availability depends on the platform and plan, and is confirmed during planning.

Category

Call Handling

Auto-Attendant & IVR

Commonly included

A configurable menu answers inbound calls, plays a friendly greeting, and directs callers based on their selection. Menus can branch by department, extension, or business hours so callers reach the right team without a receptionist.

Ring Groups & Call Queues

Commonly included

Ring groups distribute a call to several people at once, while call queues hold callers with music or messages until a team member is free. Together they reduce missed calls and help busy teams stay responsive.

Call Forwarding & Rules

Commonly included

Forwarding rules can follow schedules, callers, or busy/no-answer conditions. Teams can send calls to a mobile device when away from the desk and back to the office line when they return.

Conference Calling

Commonly included

Start a conference directly from a desk phone or softphone to include colleagues, clients, or partners. Capacity may vary by plan.

Contact Center Capabilities

Optional / plan dependent

Queues, agent routing, and reporting can be extended for inbound and outbound call teams. Contact center features are typically licensed separately from standard business seats.

Category

Mobility

Mobile & Desktop Apps

Commonly included

Softphone apps for desktop and mobile let staff make and receive business calls from anywhere, with the same number and consistent voicemail, history, and contacts.

Category

Messaging

Voicemail to Email

Commonly included

Voicemail is delivered to a chosen email inbox with playback and read options, so staff can review messages from a computer or phone and forward them when needed.

Business SMS

Optional / plan dependent

Texting from a business number keeps conversations in one place and gives customers a familiar way to reach you. SMS availability depends on the selected plan and region.

Category

Insight

Call Recording

Optional / plan dependent

On-demand and automatic recording helps teams review conversations and onboard new staff. Recording should always be used with the notices your organization and local law require.

Call Analytics

Optional / plan dependent

Dashboards summarize inbound and outbound activity, peak periods, and answered calls. Reports help managers plan staffing and spot trends over time.

AI Transcription & Summaries

Platform dependent

Where supported by the platform, calls can be transcribed and summarized to reduce note-taking. Availability, storage, and consent requirements vary and are confirmed during planning.

Category

Administration

Number Porting

Commonly included

Porting moves your current numbers to the new cloud phone system, so customers keep the number they know. Timing depends on the current carrier and number type; porting is coordinated during onboarding.

CRM & Helpdesk Integrations

Platform dependent

Display caller details, log calls automatically, and open records on incoming calls. The exact catalog of supported integrations depends on the platform selected and is confirmed during planning.

Multi-Site Administration

Commonly included

Extensions, schedules, and routing can be organized per location while administrators keep a single view of the organization, making it simpler to add offices or move staff.
