Call routing that keeps your team connected

Call Forwarding Groups

Ensure every call reaches the right person

Direct incoming calls to multiple destinations or VoIP users at once, making sure that your calls always reach someone.  Whether you want calls to ring everyone or set up multiple groups for diferent teams of people, we’ve got you covered.

What is a call group?

A call group (sometimes also called a ring group) can be a single destination or a group of destinations or VoIP users which all ring at the same time. The first person available to answer will receive the call.

Call group members can be landline numbers, mobile numbers or VoIP users.

Why add more groups?

If you want to ring a phone or a group of phones first, then if they don’t answer, ring a different phone or a group of phones. This is when you will need more than one ring group.

You can also assign things like menu options to individual call groups so that call options can be routed to different groups of people depending on the option selected.

Here’s what our customers think...

The Number People - Professor

Excellent all round - Highly recommended

Easy to use online portal, excellent customer service while being the cheapest provider I have found for VoIP number to use for my startup business.  I like that as my business grows the upgrade options are reasonable and remain affordable.  I would highly recommend Number People.

Really Excellent

Fast, friendly and professional. The easiest way of keeping your landline number active when switching to a wifi-only provider.  Highly recommended!

I wouldn't consider another provider

Been utilising numberpeople.co.uk reliably for about 3 years across circa 30 phone numbers.  Fees do quite add up some months but still provide value.  Their services are a utility and I wouldn't consider another provider.

First Class Service

Professional, prompt and flexible.  In a crowded market, the Number People really stood out.  Although we've only experienced set up so far, we would unhesitatingly recommend them.
