I recently set up a virtual voice mail system for a company who works with several independent consultants. The GotVMail system allows this company to have a unified look.
Here’s how it works. GotVMail assigns your company a toll free number (depending on the option you select, a local number may also be available). When a customer calls your company, they receive a message that you customize, i.e. Thank you for calling the xyz company; to reach Tom press 1; Sue 2; John 3 etc. Then, depending upon the mail delivery option you’ve selected, the call is forwarded to the appropriate person or to voice mail.
GotVMail offers a variety of message delivery options which include, forwarding to multiple numbers, day/night after-hours mode, email delivery of audio file, and email notification. Other features are multiple email boxes, online administration of accounts, music on hold, call announce/screening, unlimited voice mail storage, and conference calling. They also have many advanced features.
The system was very easy to set up and did not require installing any software. I have been very happy with GotVMail and highly recommend it.
