You can use your 833 number on the web, desktop (PC or Mac), and mobile apps (iOS or Android) from anywhere with WiFi. Easily send SMS, images, videos, and other files to work with customers or share more details.

Calling on a toll-free number charges your business — not the customer — encouraging customers to call you without worrying about the cost. Unlike other phone services, OpenPhone offers unlimited incoming toll-free minutes. Plus,free calls to the United States and Canada. That way, you can focus on delivering great customer service when your customers need it.
Choosing OpenPhone for your 833 number offers many other benefits for your business.
Ensure your team never misses an important call by using shared numbers. Have fast response times by setting up simultaneous ring, which allows an incoming phone call to ring on multiple devices. Plus, create a preferred ring order so calls go to certain team members first. For calls after hours, use external call forwarding to send the call to an external number, like an on-call team member or answering service.
Easily add new team members and assign phone numbers as your business expands. Create a toll-free number for a certain department that’ll ring the people on that team. If you need a phone number for a specific city you’re expanding to, you can also get a US or Canadian number based on a local area code in seconds.
Give great customer service when passing off customers during an active call. Three-way calling allows your team to make warm transfers so the customer doesn’t have to provide context again when speaking to a new team member.
Don’t waste valuable time typing up a call summary and the next steps to send to a prospect. OpenPhone’s automatic call recordings and AI-generated summaries are ready when you need them, so you can follow up quickly and win deals. Plus, managers can easily access recordings and summaries of all calls to provide feedback and coaching directly in the customer thread.
Spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time making a great impression on customers. In OpenPhone, you can schedule messages to be sent later and set auto-replies for when you’re not available to respond at the moment.
Set up snippets to store answers to questions or common phrases so you can provide a thorough response in just one click. For more automation, integrate OpenPhone with Zapier to streamline key touchpoints, like sending a meeting reminder after someone books time on your calendar.
Reduce errors and save time by automatically sending all your customer communication touchpoints to your CRM. With OpenPhone’s HubSpot and Salesforce integrations, you don’t need to manually log calls or texts. Conversations will be synced automatically so anyone on your team can see an accurate record and provide support when needed.
