Texting can be a great way to maintain a high level of customer service for your business, and SpectrumVoIP is here to help.
There are a few things to be sure of before considering enabling and using the SpectrumVoIPs texting service:
- You will need to be the owner of the account to enable the service.
- The number to be used must be ported to a specific carrier that SpectrumVoIP partners with to enable SMS/MMS. Carrier availability may be restricted by location.
- Only one number can be used for texting per account, this can be thought of as having "Company X" texting customers instead of each agent.
- Everyone with a high enough access level will be able to view anything that has been texted from the number.
Please submit a support request if you would like SpectrumVoIP to enable texting from your account.
Once it is enabled, you may access it by following the steps below.
