Upcoming Features/Enhancements

[Brian]

Simulring to multiple numbers? Find-me forwarding? Voicemail-only option for Express accounts that can be setup without going through support?

[Vumes]

I veto that. Nothing is free. If it costs VOIPo we customers will end up paying for it and I don't want to subsidize those who want it. There are plenty of inexpensive plans for those who care about such things. Or, if you think your usage is going to be off the wall, join Vonage or some big company which can afford to take a hit or two.

Veto it all you want. Tim asked for speculation, and I jokingly gave it to him. This thread is about Voipo customers speculating on new features/enhancements.

Secondly, I came from Vonage and am a very happy Voipo customer. Speculation is what he wanted, and that's what I gave him.

Veto. That's rich! I can't stop laughing!

Nationwide network of Voipo Connect numbers - a local call from at least the top 100 'markets' (at least one location per state)...

Enhancements to DND/Simulring to allow 'emergency override' and 'call confirmation', respectively. In other words, active DND sends incoming calls to a recording where the caller can choose to go to voicemail or override DND and ring the Voipo phone (Voipo user would have to enable 'emergency override' feature). Call confirmation would be that if simulring is active and an incoming call is 'answered' by the simulring target phone, the person answering the phone would have to press 1 to accept the call (to ensure that a human has answered and not a VM system). More than one simulring target, too.

Call logs - cumulative stats (e.g. total inbound, total outbound, aggregate total) for range of calls displayed... (I thought usage totals were on the call logs, but I haven't seen them recently.)

vPanel enhancements - more up-front documentation/context-sensitive help integrated into the feature screens...

Other DND enhancements: Scheduling, 'countdown' (e.g. start DND for the next 3 hours, after which it turns off automatically)

Easier-to-use Contact management system in vPanel?

[caseydoug]

• Streaming music and video to the display on your phone
• The ability to "beam" the caller to the callee, and vice versa
• Health care reform

A solid MWI that goes off once the message is deleted?
Peace in the Middle East?

One out of two already from where I am!

You'll want to shoot in a ticket (if you haven't already) to our support team if you're experiencing issues; we have had few reported problems with the beta recording feature (most of which have been issues where the attachment coming in via email is larger than the user's mail server is willing to accept).

Call recording has never worked for me. I did some troubleshooting with you in the forums a while back

(see http://forums.voipo.com/showthread.p...=record&page=2)

and I just submitted a ticket on it (Ticket ID IFX-260757).
