Video Conferencing

Ooma Office has added a brand new advanced feature to their already robust Ooma Office Pro Plan. Video Conferencing gives teams the opportunity to be productive from wherever, whenever. The beauty of this wonderful new feature is its simplicity. You or anyone can join a video conference by simply using your browser or downloading their mobile app. A unique aspect unlike other video conferencing platforms, Ooma meetings allows two or more people to share their screens simultaneously and enjoy a more fluid collaboration. This advanced feature allows up to 25 participants to desktop share, invent, solve and collaborate easily and efficiently.

Additional Video Conferencing features include:

• Chat
• Mute Options
• One-time & Recurring Meetings
• Meet Now For Ad Hoc Meetings
• Password Option

Porting

Porting allows users to keep numbers from previous VoIP services and move them to their VoIPLy account. This process takes a while to complete, around 2-4 weeks, but it allows businesses to keep their phone numbers and upgrade to better VoIP services.

Enhanced caller-ID

While regular Caller-ID services show you only the number calling when they are not in your contact list, Ooma makes use of the national database to find out who’s calling you, and display the name on your screen whenever possible.

Enhanced call-waiting

Not only can you use this feature to get a beep when you have a second call while engaged in a phone conversation, but all of your other phones will continue to be available no matter how long your call is.

Instant second line

Just in case you need to make two calls at the same time, Ooma allows you to have two calls on the same number simultaneously.

Three-way conferencing

This feature comes in handy whenever you need to include a third party to one phone call.

Call forwarding and multi-ring

You can use this whenever you are on the go. Just set the numbers to be called in case you don’t answer on your main one.

Backup number

Together with call forwarding is another useful feature, backup number. It allows you to forward your calls to another phone whenever you don’t have an internet connection.

Call blocking

Ooma offers you a solution for protecting yourself from any kind of intrusions. If you want only people in your contact list to be able to reach you, if you suspect a spammer, or you simply don’t want to take calls from people you don’t know, you can use this feature to set your privacy limits.
