Other VoIP Service Providers instead of Google Voice for Obi 110
babobi:
Can someone direct me to a list of the best alternate VoIP Service Providers that are compatible with the Obi 110 other than Google Voice which can also:
1. Provide Caller ID -- WITH NAME?
AND
2. Provide an interface similar to Google Voice that allows me to set up list/s (unlimited numbers, no cap like Comcast's pathetic 12 number limit) to block scam and spam callers?
I like my Google Voice, the only gripe I have is that their Caller ID feature does not identify callers by name. I would gladly pay for this service if Google Voice made it available, unfortunately they don't. Any info much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

You can go with Anveo which provides CID Name and allows blocking unlimited numbers. DID's with unlimited inbound are $1.99 plus $0.80 for E911 service per month.
Another way is to use Simon Telephonics Google Voice Gateway Here. They provide SIP credentials and CID with Name works. However, no 911 service.

CallCentric is an outstanding VOIP provider which will meet your needs to a "T". You can check their reviews at dslreports.com as well as reviews for other providers. As you compare reviews, keep an open mind, compare the ratio of good to bad reviews, and keep in mind that there will always be unsatisfied customers with any service provider regardless of how outstanding a company is.

As N7AS said, you can currently get CNAM service using google voice from https://simonics.com/gvgw/ for free.
You will have to sacrifice your message waiting indicators, both visual and stutter tone.

Another free alternative some people have mentioned here. CC has free incoming DID with NY numbers. It seems that GV+CC+OBi=CID name+Number
