Call forwarding

With Dialpad, you can easily forward calls from a landline or mobile device to up to five external call forwarding numbers. If you’re in a meeting or out of the office, you can automatically transfer calls to your colleagues or another device. There’s no need to miss an important message from a team member or leave a customer waiting on hold.

Call routing

Call routing with Dialpad is fast and easy. You can set whichever routing and auto attendant rules suit your business in literally minutes, right from your admin portal. Call transfer, too, is seamless and efficient, so you can move incoming calls to the right departments or agents with just a click.

Business text messaging

It’s not always convenient to make or receive a phone call, even if you need to contact a teammate urgently. Instead, you may wish to send a text message. Dialpad’s app allows you to send SMS and MMS messages externally and internally, so even if you can’t speak to someone directly, you can keep in touch.

App and browser functionality

Dialpad has apps available for PC, Mac, Android, iPhone, and iPad, so you can stay connected on any device. Voice and video calls can also be joined from any web browser, so all your client needs to contact you is the link in their meeting invite. You can add other contacts into calls to create a three-way call or larger group calls, too.

Custom caller IDs

With Dialpad's custom caller ID selection feature, you can choose how calls appear to recipients, even if you're making business calls on the go from your mobile phone. From your personal business number to a local company number, you can pick an option your contact recognises and trusts.

Custom voicemail greeting

Dialpad gives you the ability to customise your voicemail greeting, so anyone trying to call you can experience that personal touch, even if they don’t speak to you directly. Its visual voicemail feature can also transcribe any voicemail messages you receive, enabling you to read your messages when you’re unable to listen to them.

Auto attendant

Dialpad's auto attendant feature lets you focus on more valuable tasks instead of manually sorting incoming calls and routing them to the right people. Just set up your custom call routing options and let Dialpad do the rest.

Call flip

Received an important incoming call just as you were leaving the office? With Dialpad, there’s no need to worry about whether to take it or rush to your next meeting—call flip lets you do both. You can transfer calls from your desktop to your mobile, or vice versa, in real time without interrupting the call.

Keep your work-life balance

After you get off work, set the app to Do Not Disturb mode to send calls after business hours automatically to voicemail or auto-reply with an SMS. This way, you can still use your cell phone for personal calls.
