To activate this service for your customers, head over to the VoIP.ms Customer Portal, then under the “Reseller” tab, select “Reseller Configuration”, “Services”, then head all the way down to “SMS/MMS”… but first, don’t forget to set your pricing in the “Interface and Access” tab!

We would like to notify you of the release of our Call Parking Feature in Open Beta.

To start leveraging this feature, head over to your customer portal, then to “DID Numbers” then under “Call Parking”. With the addition of this feature, you or your team will be able to create parking lots where you could for instance:

• Put your current call on hold and initiate a second, separate call to another party. This would allow you to switch back and forth between the two separate calls, or
• Put your current call on hold so you or anybody else can pick up the call from elsewhere, as long as the parking lot is known (e.g. #701).

For more information, you may consult our Wiki article here.

We would like to notify you of the release of our Short Message Peer to Peer (SMPP) feature.

To start leveraging this feature you will need to have your own SMPP server set on your side. Once properly configured, you will be able to send and receive SMS messages to your own server. This feature will allow you for instance to send messages to your current customers while avoiding to leverage a softphone or our message centre.

We would like to notify you of the release of our Maximum Channel Capacity Failover Feature.

Some of you leverage VoIP.ms only for SIP Trunking with your PBX and do not wish to make use of our sub-accounts feature. Therefore, to allow you to have a better control of your call flow, you can now set a maximum channel capacity at the DID level.

For instance, you could have a hard limit of 25 inbound channels for a specific DID, but decide to put a failover to a voicemail as soon as the number of channels exceeds 10.

To start leveraging this feature, head over to your customer portal, “DID Numbers” then “Manage DID(s)”. Edit the DID of your choice, and click the “Failover” button at the top right of your screen. You will then see a new failover option called “Max. Capacity”. Simply click the “Enabled” checkbox, set the desired limit and select the failover destination. For more information, you may consult our Wiki article here.

Please note that while the default limit of inbound channels is set at 25 channels per DID, it can be raised upon request with no additional charges. To do so, please reach out to our support team through our live chat or through email at support@voip.ms. 

Thanks for being a VoIP.ms customer and we hope you will enjoy this new feature.

With the addition of this feature, you may now send messages including pictures, video or audio content to another device for as low as $0.02 per message.

As always, VoIP.ms is striving for aggressive and competitive rates, therefore the SMS feature will be available at a low fee of $0.0075 per message.

While we have multiple projects on the table for our customers, we will keep on working to release new messaging-related features in the coming months!

Finally, in the past few months we have been working closely with top-of-the-game providers to increase our coverage (in Canada and in United States) and our overall customer experience. We did not only put our focus on North America, but also started to review our international termination product offering in order to enhance call quality and overall completion rate. As of August 1^st, 2020, we will launch an updated rate deck with more coverage and flexibility to meet the growing needs of our customers. We have many more international-focused projects in the pipeline, stay tuned!
