"Forwarding the calls" somewhere vs. setting the calls to ring somewhere are 2 different things. It may be important for you to know the difference.
At our core, we'll always offer you the ability to use the FlyNumber(s) in one of the following three ways.
Here's a simple tutorial on how you can use the Zoiper app and sip2sip to receive unlimited incoming calls on your FlyNumber (ie. Virtual phone number)
This does not require the use of our cloud PBX system.
We're excited to finally bring you the new phone system. It's HTML 5 based so there is no need for adobe flash (as required on our older system)
If you're currently a customer or you sign up before Mid June 2021 the PBX/ Phone System is included in the price of the phone number.
There are truly too many features to list.
Here are some ...
Call Menus
Phone Number forwarding
Time-Based routing
Phone-Number based routing
Call Recording
Queue phone calls
Create SIP Accounts
First, we must thank our current users for their patience while we implemented this feature. Its been live for a couple of weeks now and glad to report its working well.
Our blog has been on the back burner for quite some time. Over recent years, most of our public communications have come via the discussion forum.
Forwarding to Skype as of 2022 is still not possible unless you use Skype business.
Skype forwarding is no more, unless you use " Skype connect" which they charge for. This would give you a SIP URI and we can send calls there
**Now anytime anyone calls your FlyNumber you can answer the calls for free with unlimited incoming minutes on your iPhone or Android, when you make an outgoing call you’ll pay ourlow per minute rate and have your FlyNumber show up as the Caller-ID. **
This has been the most anticipated feature coming out of our PBX/ Virtual Phone System; it will enable you to register a SIP device/client with our own internal SIP addresses. No need to use a 3rd party VOIP provider, just choose a phone number and send the calls to our “PBX”. You’ll have the ability to register multiple devices and use our legendary PBX Grid to configure your configuration. It’s never been easier to make and receive phone calls with your FlyNumber.
It’s been a while since we’ve updated the blog, our apologies . We’ve been very busy updating the “internals”, we’re about to introduce FlyNumber SIP addresses among other neat features. The exterior may look the same but there’s plenty going on inside. We’re coming out with new features almost every quarter and the PBX/ Virtual phone system is evolving very nicely. You need to try it out if you haven’t already, it’s visually appealing and the grid gives you a real sense of customization.
Look at it as a “second line” on your smartphone without any minute restrictions or contracts. I’ve found this method to be the most reliable without a doubt; using apps like Skype just don’t cut it. You can set this up a couple different ways; one example would be to use a combination of iOS or Android devices to manage the calls coming in on your FlyNumber. I use my iPhone and iPad as an example below.
