What is My One Ring all about

What is this MyOneRing all about,

Shorts: it is a technology that allows you one number to integrate all your phone services.

More descript:
By example……

For instance take MY MyOneRing number 14045637015

It is a real number that MyOneRing supplies to me. MyOneRing integrates it with SIP/VOIP technologies to allow MyOneRing to manipulate it many ways.

I have fax service on that number so if you fax something to 14045637015 it will take the fax and email it to me …. Note so here we have what is termed unified messaging. MyOneRing service integrates FAX, Phone and Email.

I also have multiple other numbers My Home, My laptop when I am on the road, my cell service which is Verizon, my desk has a phone, my office has a phone and many of my clients have phones for me when I am in their office. I also have a hard fax machine that sits in my office. I have several other soft phones and regular phones at several destinations.

With MyOneRing we tie it all together for you so you can just say call me at MYONERING number 14045637015.

There is voicemail attached to it as well and that is emailed to me after the message is left. SO I really don’t have to remember a dozen passwords for my voice and the different ways to get voicemail and all the nonsense that goes on with Legacy Phone systems.

Technically as a client you don’t have to know all the stuff that goes on behind the scenes to make that happen, when you set up The MYONERING service you tell us how you want it done. And we make it happen, if things change for you, let us know, and we will make the required changes to your MYONERING number.

Then the icing on the cake is MYONERING is also web enabled, which really means you have control over your number when you visit the MYONERING website

DUNDI is so cool

I just installed DUNDI which is really cool.

It took some time to catch on to the lingo but so far it is working superbly. Just more features for MyOneRing see the services page for a sampling of services that we supply.

Thanks to John over at Cohutta.com for all the help in getting it set up.

Happy July 4th

Been Busy buiding out a start up

Plan Plan Plan Plan. What a plan wouldn’t do for me right about now.

Long story short you can never have too much planning when rolling out a phone switch.

Nuff said else I get myself in trouble

So you really want to know about VOIP

A VOIP Primer

A Buddy and I were talking about VOIP, as we were talking and since I sell VOIP, (BTW this is my Business Blog) he said “why would I try VOIP”.

There are literally millions of pages of specifications and references about the technical aspect of VOIP, he really wasn’t interested in finding out about VOIP that way. So I was thinking how do I tell you about VOIP without the millions of pages of documents of what VOIP is like and why is there so many differences in the price, quality and reliability.

I was eating a hot dog , which by the way I like a good hot dog and sometimes a HOT dog is the only thing that would be good. I was also thinking about putting a roast on the Bar B Que this weekend and the phone rang. I was multitasking.

OK back to the VOIP thing, The phone did not literally ring, it is a telco techie term for “the light came on” or “that works”

So here is the difference. We are going to compare hot dogs to VOIP. Actually not, we are going to compare MEAT with VOIP. There is good Hot dogs and bad hot dogs we all know that. There is also good Prime rib and bad prime rib. Stick with me here we will get to the VOIP thing I promise. They are all meat.

Same with VOIP. I surely wont pay prime rib price for a hot dog, but I wont frequent a place that sells bad hot dogs either. The VOIP Industry is that way right now and likely to stay that way for some time. There is hot dog kind of VOIP and then there is Prime Rib VOIP. Prime RIB VOIP normally costs a little more. HOT dog VOIP is good for certain times as well.

There are a couple of things I want to get out of the way. Although your OLD phone will work with VOIP, your going to need a device that will convert it to VOIP. It is like a power adaptor. Only it is for telephones. it is called an ATA an Analog Telephone Adapter.

Some companies will give you one when you buy their service. Or let’s put that right they will give you one that works with their service only (LOCKED). If you leave their service they will either charge you for it or make you return it. A good deal either way because they cost anywhere from 30 to 100 dollars. The companies that do this normally don’t let you use your own. Some also let you buy their locked device and they give you free service for a while. We will call this HOT DOG VOIP, good but not great but heck fast easy and cheap is good.

ON the other hand

Some companies will sell you one that is UNLOCKED, or you can use one you buy yourself with their service as well. Also a good deal. But this is an indicator also … the company with unlocked devices are normally better services. They have to be, as the only way they are going to keep you as a customer is with better service. “COOL HUHN” We are talking some GOOD HOT DOG VOIP here. insert many pages of why this takes more work on the suppliers side.

If they offer both we are talking even better. Some short notes here. Free is good , talking about free … tommorow is supposed to be hot day and at Home Depot … free Hot dogs from the TRANE Air Conditoner guys.

So now lets talk about some PRIME RIB VOIP. My counter parts. Feature feature feature … being a telco guy I know that of all the features we put into phone systems about 2% are used on a daily basis. It really isn’t the whole feature set that is important. IT is, is the feature you want and need there,

For even a little bit more money, we can expect more features, and there are literally 2698 of them to choose from and no I am not going through them here. Ask your service provider if he has the feature you are looking for … anything you would want really they are all available everything you can imagine from simple voicemail to email to wake up and reminder calls.

Expect to go through a few before you find one that works for you.

So you want to try a VOIP call to see how the GOOD PRIME RIB VOIP sounds. Do it now call 404 563 7019 and I will most likely answer your call. I do sleep sometimes and I am in the Eastern Time zone .

You can also see the All Services link in the sidebar to see some of the offerings I have. If you don’t see what you want shoot me a line and we can work something out. Someday I might even list the 2698 features that are available.

So why would you try VOIP, maybe your looking for a feature that isn’t offered in your telephone service now. Maybe you want to expand out a little an old ailing telco company not willing to go the distance for you. Maybe a second line or maybe you just want a HOT DOG.

VOIP your WAY

Welcome to Billlearning.com

Welcome to BillLearning.com

What are we doing here?  Selling VOIP or some call it SIP to PSTN gateway.  Click on the all services tab to go immediately to the sales page.

I am Bill Learning a telecom geek from a long time back. Over the last several years I was frustrated with setting up companies and individuals with Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP),

I decided it was high time someone did it right. After several attempts at getting companies up and functional in the anticipation of going commercial and doing the VOIP industry justice it just didn’t happen. They cut corners and then in search of the almighty cash cow, service and reliability was sacrificed.

That brings us to now where I run my own SIP to PSTN gateway. Yup little old me does the PSTN to VOIP conversion in a COLO in downtown Atlanta and soon to be in several locations throughout the country.

What is the difference, The difference is reliability and call completion. A lot of VOIP suppliers think that 85% completed calls is good enough. Me I know that we can complete 99.9 percent of the calls and sometimes 99.99999%. If someone tells you they complete 100% of the calls they are flat out lying.
