Telephony World Voice Mail Buyer's Guides

Since the earlier days of answering machines and devices connected to phone lines, voice mail systems and applications have become complex workhorses of everyday business. Computer telephony has made new voice mail features available that add power and flexibility to the simpler answering device model.

Voice mail today can include auto attendant and follow-me capabilities so that your callers can have a better variety of options. They can leave longer and more detailed messages. You can easily access your messages and change system options from the road when traveling. Call back features enable you to automatically call back the individual who left a message. Some applications allow group mailbox lists to be created for sending the same message to multiple recipients, and so on. Mailboxes can be set up that are "listen only" for organizations that need to make special announcements such as power companies that must warn of outages during storms.
