Thanks Noci, but I'm not looking to host my own or anything of that nature. I just need a system like Skype that allows me to customize my voicemail message.

I got 3cx setup on Amazon Lightsail, much easier and quicker to setup that I thought it would be. Signed up with Skyetel for the VOIP stuff, and they integrated very well together. <br />
<br />
Thanks very much for your help!

Now that Skype no longer allows a customized voicemail greeting, I'm looking for an alternative. <br />
<br />
I have a Skype Number that I'll port over to the new system, so it needs to accept incoming calls on that number. Other than that all I really care about is voicemail. Skype cost me about $100 a year for the number + my plan, and I'd sure like to stick around that price range.<br />
<br />
Any ideas?

Business Communication is the act of information sharing, whether within an organization or outside of it. Internal Business Communication refers to information sharing, updates on policies and procedures, and team building exercises submitted through emails, memos, and the like. External Business Communication is released to benefit the commercial interests of a company, such as marketing, advertising, or press release communications. This line of work requires a strong understanding of the primary language used in the business’ target demographic, the ability to effectively convey ideas and information through written means, and the skills to effectively inform internal and external audiences on mission, values, changes, and plans.

IP telephony (Internet Protocol telephony) is a general term for the technologies that use the Internet Protocol's packet-switched connections to exchange voice, fax, and other forms of information that have traditionally been carried over the dedicated circuit-switched connections of the public switched telephone network (PSTN). Using the Internet, calls travel as packets of data on shared lines, avoiding the tolls of the PSTN. The challenge in IP telephony is to deliver the voice, fax, or video packets in a dependable flow to the user.

Skype is for doing things together, whenever you’re apart. Skype’s text, voice and video make it simple to share experiences with the people that matter to you, wherever they are.

With Skype, you can share a story, celebrate a birthday, learn a language, hold a meeting, work with colleagues – just about anything you need to do together every day. You can use Skype on whatever works best for you - on your phone or computer or a TV with Skype on it. It is free to start using Skype - to speak, see and instant message other people on Skype for example.

Voice over IP (VoIP) is a methodology and group of technologies for the delivery of voice communications and multimedia sessions over Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet. Other terms commonly associated with VoIP are IP telephony, Internet telephony, broadband telephony, and broadband phone service. The term specifically refers to the provisioning of communications services (voice, fax, SMS, voice-messaging) over the public Internet, rather than via the public switched telephone network (PSTN).  Examples of the VoIP protocols are H.323, Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP), Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), H.248 (also known as Media Gateway Control (Megaco)), Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP), Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP), Session Description Protocol (SDP), and Inter-Asterisk eXchange (IAX).

Voice Over IP

Telecommunication occurs when the exchange of information between two or more entities (communication) includes the use of technology. Communication technology uses channels to transmit information (as electrical signals), either over a physical medium (such as signal cables), or in the form of electromagnetic waves. The word is often used in its plural form, telecommunications, because it involves many different technologies.
