Direct inward dialing numbers, or DID numbers, allow businesses to establish a local presence in any country or city, which is especially useful for UK companies that have to make regular calls overseas as they only have to pay at local rates. DID numbers can be configured in VoIPBusiness so that calls are forwarded to your IP PBX, smartphone or deskphone anywhere is the world.
Save on roaming and long-distance calling
DID numbers allow you to save on international roaming costs and you can make an receive calls anywhere in the world at local rates. This allows you to stay in touch with your colleagues and customers at any time without incurring the huge costs often associated with roaming.
The rise of employee mobility
With the trend of employees using their own mobile devices there has been a dramatic rise of the use of the corporate cloud. Businesses have moved away from traditional communications and are now using multiple DID numbers to connect with their staff and customers.
Advanced telephony on your mobile device
DID numbers are fully integrated into our hosted IP PBX platform. Your business can establish an international presence with advanced features such as auto-attendant, call waiting and caller ID and all you need do is update your phone’s SIP settings from your user account.
London calling Dublin at local rates
Let’s suppose you are based in London and making regular calls to Dublin. To reduce your monthly phone bill, you simply purchase a Dublin DID number. You would then avoid costly STD rates and instead be charged at local phone rates.
