VelocityTel has some problems. They use an adapter, made by Grandstream, positioned between your router and your phones that I find highly unreliable. I have 3 lines. I can not be certain at any point that all three lines will be working, or even one. I just know that several times a day, an adapter will start flashing red, which means there is a problem. sometimes it will go for hours. Sometimes it will reset in a few minutes. The tech support people are always helpful, but the reliability sucks. I don't know with certanty that the adapter is the problem. I do know that I can swap out a problem adapter, and the problem disappears, for the moment.
I went over to Ooma's "basic" service In January of 2020. While generally pleased with their service, I recently decided to change over to Unbquiti's "Talk" VOIP. When I joined Ooma, porting to them was accomplished in under 24 hours. Porting out has been a nightmare. As per FCC's website: How long does the porting process last? FCC rules require simple ports, which generally do not involve more than one line or more complex adjustments to telephone switching equipment, to be processed in one business day. You may be able to use your phone within a few hours for changes among wireless service providers. However, porting from wireline to wireless service may still take a few days. It's been two weeks. Today (Oct 26) their offshore "support" told me they rejected the porting request on Oct. 23 (eleven days after the request) because the new provider made multiple requests on the same day. Bull, and they admitted to taking eleven days to make the rejection. I told them I was confirming that the porting request was legitimate but she said they would not accept that, as all the requests must come from the new provider. Like other reviewers, Ooma is OK until you have an issue. I've filed an FCC online complaint, but it looks like I need to start from scratch. Beware.
This is a great little drive that has saved me a time of money over the years. You can use it with or without a phone you can use the app. I have saved thousands over the years and yes some employers still require you to have a landline and this fits that need perfect.
