Add more VoIP users
You can have as many VoIP users (or extensions) as you need, so a group of staff can all call out using your new number as the outgoing caller ID.
VoIP users can use the zoiper VoIP app on their mobile phone/tablet/PC or laptop, or can program a VoIP phone and use it like a real cordless or desktop phone.
VoIP users each get an individual extension number, and can call each other free just by dialling this extension number. This allows you to call between devices like a laptop and a mobile phone free of charge.
Incoming call distribution
VoIP users can also be grouped to receive calls, allowing you to distribute incoming calls across multiple VoIP users. To do this simply add them on the FORWARD CALLS TO section of the portal.
You can also blend VoIP and phone numbers in the destination group, so the nominated VoIP users will ring alongside the mobile or landline numbers listed.
