Never apologize for missing a call again with OpenPhone's call forwarding service.
VoIP call forwarding is a service that redirects incoming VoIP calls to another phone number of your choice.
The incoming calls are rerouted to any phone, even a landline or mobile phone, allowing you to stay connected no matter where you are. VoIP call forwarding is a convenient way to ensure you never miss an important call.
Typically call forwarding is only necessary if you’re outside WiFi range. Otherwise, you can directly route incoming calls to your virtual number — or if someone else on your team needs to take incoming calls, you can share access to that number.
Utilizing call forwarding, you don't have to worry about calls slipping through the cracks. Calls are properly rerouted, and your team can be easily reached with shared business phone numbers.
Add an extra layer of customer service, by using simultaneous ring or routing calls to the most appropriate team member.
