Want to manage and optimize how your business receives incoming calls? To offer reliable and responsive customer service, you need to be available to your customers — when and where they call. So, it helps if your phone system allows you to change your forward-to number in real-time, adjust routing rules, and create on-call schedules.
Let’s look at what live call routing is and how you can use this communication capability to your business’ benefit.
What is Live Call Routing?
Live call routing is a cloud telephony feature that allows your organization to improve customer support and provide emergency assistance. Route calls and voicemails to on-call responders.
You can use a fixed phone number, either local or toll-free, which will dynamically forward calls and voicemails to on-call responders on duty. The phone number that we provide can be from another country, and you can set incoming calls to route to anywhere in the world.

Live call routing works through our intuitive online control panel.
Administrators can log in to our web portal and make changes to their call schedule settings in real time. Simply create a schedule or choose the advanced routing type that you would like to set up and then enter your destination or on-call phone numbers.
