The Gizmo Project started as a way to bring the Gizmo softphone to individuals, and it has been a tremendous success. Now, you can turn your Gizmo softphones into a world-class business phone system, with our Virtual PBX service. This page describes a few of the great business applications you can reach by combining the best of the Gizmo Project with the best of Virtual PBX.

If you want to use Gizmo for business, you’ll want to pull each employee with a Gizmo softphone together under one business phone number, so that clients can reach all of your people with a single call. You can do that with Virtual PBX. We can use a business number you already have, or give you a new one. When your clients call that number, a professional “virtual receptionist” will answer, and let them reach any employee or department in the company. And you can transfer calls between your employees instantly, whether they work closely together or are around the world from each other.

Virtual PBX’s powerful ACD queue technology can send calls intelligently to whole teams of people. With phones from the Gizmo Project phone and a hosted PBX from Virtual PBX, you can create entire calls centers with just a few or hundreds of workers. Virtual PBX will route the calls to the team any way you want, balancing the load across the group, or sending the calls to your best people first. We also provide detailed online reports and monitoring that will help you keep track of your business and make it run at peak efficiency. And this may be the least expensive way to put together a fully-enabled call center – the Gizmo Project is free for inbound calls and just pennies to call out, while Virtual PBX now offers a plan for Gizmo users with free minutes and a cost per user less than competing IP-PBX suppliers.

With the Gizmo Project, you can take calls over the internet on any computer, anywhere. And Virtual PBX can route calls over the internet to any Gizmo softphone. So you can have workers in Europe, India, Latin America, or anywhere in the world, all reachable from one US business phone number. If you have international workers that you want callers in the United States to be able to reach at very low cost, this combination is perfect.

In today’s economy, we all need to save money every way we can. More and more businesses are giving up brick-and-mortar offices in favor of virtual businesses, allowing them to save on office space, furniture, utilities, and more. For these companies, Virtual PBX is the right product at the right time. We can send calls to any phone, anywhere, whether your employees are in the same room, or around the word. When you use Gizmo for business calls, you can take calls anywhere with an internet connection. The Virtual Office is now available everywhere – and it’s very inexpensive.

All Gizmo Project phones have built-in voice messaging, as well as an entire host of other features. So why would you need voice messaging from Virtual PBX? Because with both you can provide a different, more professional, experience for business callers and a more intimate or fun interaction on personal calls. We can play your business voicemail greeting whenever you can’t be reached for a call through our system, while people who have your direct Gizmo number can get your personal greeting. And our messaging includes inbound faxes, too. Both voice and fax messages can be retrieved online at any time or sent to your email address.

There’s a lot you can do with a Gizmo softphone and Virtual PBX. This is just the start of the list. Give us a call if you have any questions, or sign up for our free trial and see for yourself the marriage of Virtual PBX and the Gizmo Project can do for you.
