Track
Telephony
Customers still dial a number. The number type decides the price, the carrier design, and the failure mode.
5 rooms. Open one, then use its quiz.
DID, toll-free, shared cost, UIFN
The number type is a cost and a failure-domain choice.
Claiming and the false 'limit' on the first number
The first claim is a Support conversation more often than people expect.
Porting without losing the rollback
A port is a date with the losing carrier. It is not a flow change.
SIP, external voice, and what is not a trunk in the CUCM sense
Connect does not give you a CUCM SIP trunk page. It gives you native telephony, transfers to numbers, and an external voice connector for analytics.
Outbound calls and caller ID
Outbound is a queue setting, a permission, and a country quota.
