Web-based Call Management
Calls to your business number can be diverted to your target (landline or mobile) during your operational business hours. Once you have configured your 'in-hours', choose where you would like to divert calls 'outside of working hours'. If calls are not configured to be diverted outside working hours, then voicemail-to-email is activated, meaning that calls are always captured.
Open the Call Manager to access the time schedule and set business open hours. Calls received in-hours can be configured to route to any UK landline number (01/02) or UK mobile (07). Your call-forwarding changes are saved and active at the click of a button.
Calls received outside business hours can also be routed to phone or voicemail. Ensure that you can identify business calls when answering from a mobile or home phone outside of business hours.
