Quote from: ProfTech on October 25, 2011, 12:05:45 PMOne thing I'm not crazy about is the fact that Callcentric charges an extra fee for incoming calls.
In addition to CC's Personal Unlimited numbers as noted by Shivers, there are numerous free or inexpensive third-party options for US numbers that can ring to your Callcentric service. Some require also getting a free iNum from Callcentric. Quality / reliability / support ratings are my personal opinion.
1. IPKall. Free. Washington state numbers only. Not the most reliable, no support, number canceled if unused for 30 days. Multiple channels. Outbound not available.
2. VoxOx. Free. Limited choice of numbers. False answer supervision. Forward to iNum. $0.01/min. outbound.
3. Anveo "Value". $2 setup + $0.99/mo. First 40 minutes / day free, then $0.015/min. Excellent quality, reliability and support. $0.01/min. outbound.
4. Localphone. $3 setup + $0.99/mo., no charge for calls. Two channels. Forward to iNum. Decent quality, reliability and support, but not the best. $0.005/min. outbound to most US numbers.
I don't recommend any of the above as a replacement for Callcentric; none offer 911.
There are many other not listed here.
In addition to any dedicated DIDs you may have, a Callcentric number can be reached (at no cost to the CC user) via any SIPBroker access number, via any iNum access number (if you have an iNum), or via any Localphone access number (if the caller is registered on your Localphone account).
