When it comes to business communications, phone calls just aren’t going away (as much as we like to say that it is).

And for both small business owners and large enterprises, the fact is that many clients and prospects will still try to reach you on the phone.

Which means that even though you could try to get away with just using your personal phone, you could probably make life a lot easier by using a proper business phone app that lets you forward calls, lots your voicemails, and records or transcribes your calls (among other things).

Advanced VoIP technology

Dialpad uses a special flavour of unique VoIP technology and a global network that together, allow you to make calls over Wi-Fi or an Internet connection and provide incredible call quality around the world—and yes, even send faxes over the Internet.

Dialpad is incredibly easy to manage for admins. You can add new users, add a second phone number or new phone lines, and more—all in your online account.

Free unlimited outgoing and incoming calls

Even on Dialpad’s most basic pricing plan, you get unlimited outgoing and inbound calls from Canada and the US. And if you need to make international calls, you can get those at a pretty low rate too.

Call forwarding

Forward calls from a landline or cell phone to any number. With Dialpad, you have a maximum of five external call forwarding numbers so that you can forward calls to colleagues (or your other devices).

Call routing

On traditional phone systems, you had to look up to small business phone numbers and personal numbers in a manual or cheat sheet in a binder somewhere in order to transfer a call. With Dialpad, call transfers take only a few seconds. Just type out a contact’s name and Dialpad will pull up everyone in your company directory.

Business text messaging

Need to text or send a message to teammates or clients? What’s unique about Dialpad is that you can send both SMS and MMS text messages externally and internally within your business from the app.

App and browser functionality

Dialpad has apps available for PC, Mac, Android, iPhone, and iPad, so you can stay connected on any device. Voice and video calls can also be joined from any web browser, so all your client needs to contact you is the link in their meeting invite. You can add other contacts into calls to create a three-way call or larger group calls, too.

Custom voicemail greeting

Not only do you get to customize your voicemail greeting in Dialpad, you also have a visual voicemail feature that transcribes your voicemail messages for you. This way, if you’re stuck in meetings all day and can’t listen to your messages, you can still read them and see if you missed any important calls.

Auto attendant

Dialpad's auto attendant feature lets you focus on more valuable tasks instead of manually sorting incoming calls and routing them to the right people. Just set up your custom call routing options and let Dialpad do the rest.

Call flip

Call flip lets you transfer a business call in real time from your desktop to your mobile device or even your VoIP desk phone (or vice versa) without interrupting the call, and with no loss of call quality.

Keep your work-life balance

After you get off work, set the app to Do Not Disturb mode to send calls after business hours automatically to voicemail or auto-reply with an SMS. This way, you can still use your cell phone for personal calls.
