It's amazing to think that it's been over a decade since we first released our beta phone system in 2012. Back then it required Adobe Flash and was free for everyone, unfortunately those days are gone. (original users were grandfathered into the new system free for life though).

The phone system has also come a long way since the last major update in 2021. This latest release represents the most significant changes we've implemented since that time.

The biggest change is probably the phone system app - and while I could list out all the features, what interests me more is how it changes the way we think about business phone systems.

We recently noticed an issue where users were getting incorrect details in their profile and not being able to open the Phone system panel (Version 2). Here's what happened:

We're excited to finally bring you the new phone system. It's HTML 5 based so there is no need for adobe flash (as required on our older system)

If you're currently a customer or you sign up before Mid June 2021 the PBX/ Phone System is included in the price of the phone number.

There are truly too many features to list.

Here are some ...

Call Menus
Phone Number forwarding
Time-Based routing
Phone-Number based routing
Call Recording
Queue phone calls
Create SIP Accounts

Our blog has been on the back burner for quite some time. Over recent years, most of our public communications have come via the discussion forum.

Forwarding to Skype as of 2022 is still not possible unless you use Skype business.

Skype forwarding is no more, unless you use " Skype connect" which they charge for. This would give you a SIP URI and we can send calls there

2022 update- this post needs a major update.

We get a lot of people who ask if they can make outgoing calls with their FlyNumber, technically you’d need to connect to some sort of SIP/VOIP provider to handle outgoing calls from your SIP client or VOIP phone. If you have Skype then you’d just use Skype to make the outgoing calls.

If you came here looking for FlyNumber reviews you may want to check our Facebook wall.

Since the site upgrade I haven’t really had a chance to write anything- super busy around here. It would seem our techs got all the bugs out. All links should work and orders renewing on their own should be ok as well. The site is run using a cache so if you haven’t cleared your cache in the last week and still have issues logging in I would try clearing your cache.

We thank everyone for their patience. The new site is up and running.
