Re: [General] VOIP for small business
I'm not sure about other providers, but from Future Nine perspective we can open your account to as many channels as you'd like with the pay-as-you-go or bare essentials plans.
There's no problem having 2, or 200 phone numbers on the same account.  If you need to use more than one adapter, or two lines on the same adapter, we can do that too, and can ring both of them for incoming calls if wanted.
As far as service interruption with porting - from a technical standpoint there is interruption as your Verizon phone line will just stop receiving calls in the middle of the day. There are a couple of ways to work around this:
1. Just keep a spare phone attached to the adapter anticipating the port. We typically give you advance notice of your due date.
2. We can setup your ported number to forward to a cellphone or landline - so once your number is ported if anyone calls you you'll still receive the call even if you don't have a phone hooked up to the adapter.
Porting usually takes 3-4 weeks, and unfortunately there is a fee. We get charged a high fee from our porting partner so we have charge you.  Other providers do it "for free", which means they charge you higher prices elsewhere to compensate. If you keep your service with us for a few months the savings compared to other providers will easily pay for the port cost.

Mclean, VA | Does Future 9 offer "multiple peer" or I have to have Asterisk to have one external number for multiple lines/channels? Another feature she needs is to be able to make conference calls. |

| We have to set it up for you (not automated), but we support multiple peers under parent account, ringing to any combo of peers you want, etc.
I'd recommend playing with Asterisk on your side anyway, but if you want to connect 2 (or 20) adapters to FN under one account - we can do that. |

Mclean, VA | Sounds great.
Please make it reliable and stay in business, otherwise my wife is going to kill me .
I guess I'll try it for sometime before porting her number. |
