How can I get an IVR (interactive voice response)?

[wintek]

Hello. I have a couple of products I'd like to have recorded sales material for, so people can call up and listen to them when I'm not available. Obviously I can sign up for such a service and forward calls to it. (Any suggestions as to what company is good?)

But I wonder if I can set up a server and do it over SIP or asterisk. I gather that if I learn how, I can set up a VOIP server and use it with my reseller account?

Thank you for any educational comments in the area,

I’m making several assumptions here; so if I understand correctly you want to be able to send your customers to an IVR so you can give them information and possible route call according. He is what you can do at very minimal cost and be about to do what you want.

• Get an account @ voip.ms. It’s free.
• Purchase a DID, $0.99 per month.
• Forward all calls via sip address (sip:yourDID@sip.voip.ms) to your Voip.ms account (it’s free on both ends).
• Voip.ms will process the calls as an incoming call (no charge via sip) and you can use all of their services for the cost of one DID per month.

Simple, almost free and should be able to do anything you need to do. (It has an asterisk back office

Thank you!

Coincidentally, I discovered them and signed up just last night. I was looking at their IVR description and wondering what I could put in there besides Operator functions.

I haven't decided to get a DID yet but I think I will. I like the backoffice interface.
