1 edit | CC review Thanks for interesting review.
On your dial plan: Shouldn't the .75xx actually be *75xx ??
This is for their speed dial.
---------------------------------
Great folks at CC. I love their services. | |

| Re: CC review You are correct! I pulled this from a word document I created and had corrected before pasting to my ATA. I neglected to change what I had saved in a word document, so thanks for the catch. I've updated the review to correctly reflect what you have called out. | |

| Using Call Treatments for time based Do Not Disturb rules Thank you very much for this wonderful and detailed review.
Just as a side note (because you mentioned it) - there is a way to use Call treatments for time based handling of Do Not Disturb. You may configure a rule to send a call to either voice-mail or to an error message (or to anywhere else like "We've been captured by monkeys") during certain hours. You may even configure "white" list of those who will still be able to get through to your phone (like close relatives or work-based emergencies). Yes, it's a bit complicated (because you have to set it separately for each day of week), but once set - you may enjoy your privacy during night hours  ). | |

Davidson, NC | Re: Using Call Treatments for time based Do Not Disturb rules Thanks, I wasn't aware this was possible but will give it a try. Just shows how customizable this service really is. The one thing I assume still isn't available is the ring through option in the recording if it is a true emergency though. | |

| Looking to migrate from Callvantage I am also a current customer of AT&T Callvantage and wanted to test these guys out. I have a few questions.
1. Do we need to select an inbound product and an outbound product? If I read right, we need an inbound product to get our number ported.
2. If we have to take an inbound product what was your selection?
3. Do you know if its possible to change the outbound product selection later? Like if I see my usage has changed, can I switch from pay per call to unlimited?
4. One of the feature that I liked with AT&T was the 'Locate Me' with simultaneous ring? Does Callvantage have the same or do I have to forward the call each time I go anywhere?
Thanks in advance

| Re: Looking to migrate from Callvantage 1. Yes you need to choose both, and yes you need an inbound number to port. I used a temporary one for the period I was testing. I'd recommend reading the following »www.callcentric.com/faq/17#29
2. I selected "Pay per Call" for $1.95/month and $0.015/minute to test with the intention to switching to unlimited once I decided if the service was right for me. Because I calculated I would need to use over 1596 minutes a month to break even with the unlimited plan incoming and outgoing I'm staying with the "Pay per Call" as my primary plan.
3. Yes you can switch at a later time if you think you need more or less.
4. Not exactly the same as CallVantage. They do offer a feature called "Call Treatment" and "DID Forwarding" that aren't exactly the same but do allow customized routing of very specific scenarios or general scenarios. This isn't the same though as what you have used. | |

|  Former AT&T Call Vantage Customer Agrees 100%
One suggestion I've already sent CallVantage is regarding more help with the dial plan. Heck I even had to go out and look at it to remember how to get to 7 and 10 digit dialing and I architect large VoIP systems for a living! There's no reason they can't add it to their site, in fact having it raises Bing and Google hits which could drive new traffic to their site for conversion to their offering.
I just joined DSLReports, so will add my review and will also add in my tweaking hints for a Linksys SPA2102 gateway. | |

| Re: Former AT&T Call Vantage Customer Agrees 100% Did you confirm that your post rendered 100% correct? I noticed after you posted that my original post wasn't due to use of syntax that the forum thought was HTML tags. My use of the angle brackets or less/greater than signs was removing some of the needed sting code. | |
