Two-way SMS - OpenPhone

What is a dedicated phone number?

A dedicated phone number is a unique phone number a business uses for communications. They offer plenty of benefits to businesses:

  • Business owners can keep their personal numbers private and rely on a separate business number, which gives your business a professional image.
  • Customers can reach one number and don’t have to choose from multiple options, which fosters consistent customer service and increased customer loyalty.
  • Businesses can continue conversations over text with customers with two-way texting.

With dedicated numbers, small businesses can grow their customer base and manage their business communications efficiently. 

How dedicated numbers work in OpenPhone

OpenPhone offers thousands of different numbers for businesses, including US and Canadian phone numbers with local area codes and North American toll-free numbers. You can choose a number or port in your existing number when you sign up for an OpenPhone account.

Each member of your OpenPhone workspace includes one free, unique phone number. Team members can use these numbers individually or you can share numbers for specific departments or even as your primary office number. 

Get more done with a dedicated business phone number

Whether you need numbers for customer support, sales, or service requests, OpenPhone’s small business phone system helps you easily communicate with your customers.

Choose from thousands of numbers

Get as many local US, Canadian, and North American toll-free numbers as your business needs to connect with your customers. Filter by city and state for recognizable local numbers, or choose a vanity number that ties to your business name.

Dedicated numbers for every team

Choose your preferred phone number for every team or department, including local US and Canadian mobile numbers (ten-digit long code numbers for a local presence) and North American toll-free numbers. Then add your team to a shared number so incoming callers can simultaneously ring them.

 

Need dedicated virtual phone numbers for each team member? All OpenPhone plans include a number for every user who joins your workspace so your teammates can make and receive calls from their own assigned phone numbers.

Adding more local phone numbers or toll-free numbers is easy and cost-effective. Additional numbers cost $5 per number per month.

Call management made easy

Manage inbound call routing easily with OpenPhone. Set up custom business call flows with our call flow builder. Choose a dial order with custom ring groups, give customers self-serve options with phone menus, and direct incoming calls to a secondary number with our call forwarding options.

 

Add multiple team members to your calls with group calling or hand off customers to your colleagues with call transfers. Can’t take a call at the moment? Custom voicemail greetings let your customers know what information to leave and what to expect next.

 

Coach team members with manager-focused features. Call views give you a real-time look at how your team is performing. AI call tags give you immediate context about call trends and what customers are telling you.

 

Text smarter, not harder

Connect with your customers over text with OpenPhone.

 

Send SMS and MMS messages to customers with two-way texting. Anyone on your team can send text messages to your customers from a shared number, and they’ll appear in one conversation thread.

Put your texting on autopilot with SMS auto-replies, which automatically send texts based on predetermined conditions, like missed calls or texts received after business hours. Answer common FAQs quickly with snippets (pre-written text templates). Set up automated text messages to automatically send appointment confirmations, reminders, and more with our Zapier and Make integrations.

When you choose a number on OpenPhone, it’s yours to keep. You can always port out numbers from OpenPhone to a different platform. You aren’t tied to our business phone platform, and the numbers you use are always dedicated to your business.

How long does porting to OpenPhone take?
down arrow

How long it takes to port a number depends on the type of port.
- Simple ports among wireless service providers take 1 business day or less — for example if you port 1 phone number and don’t need to switch equipment.
- Ports from a wireline (landline) to wireless service take a bit longer.
- Porting a local US number to a virtual/internet-based phone system takes 5-7 business days. Moving a Canadian number to a virtual phone system can take 7-10 business days.

The good news is that while the port is taking place, you’re able to use your phone number. Just make sure not to cancel the service with your old provider while the port is in process.

Can I text customers immediately after I create my OpenPhone account?
down arrow

You can send texts with OpenPhone in 2-5 business days. You’ll need an active account and to complete US carrier registration before you can get started sending texts.
