Webs Partners with RingCentral® to Provide Cloud-based Business Phone Systems

Feb. 24, 2011 - PRLog -- Webs, the popular, do-it-yourself solution for website creation, today announced a new partnership with RingCentral to offer “smart” business phone numbers to Webs’s small business customers. RingCentral is the leading provider of cloud-based business phone systems. With advanced phone and fax features that come with the RingCentral “smart” number, Webs users can boost productivity and enhance their professional image.

Webs users can customize their RingCentral “smart” number to route calls to any employee in any location on any phone, including home, office, or cell. They can also create custom greetings and answering options for calls after business hours. Users can even access their business voice and fax messages and make calls using their “smart” number from their smartphones to stay connected to their customers from anywhere.

“We wanted to give Webs users an easy way to get a local or toll-free phone number with big business functionality. If you’re running a small business, a toll-free number gives you instant credibility: you’ll seem bigger than you may be. Local businesses can take advantage of the booming “localism” trend with a local number—or they can choose the area code of a nearby big city if they want more business,” said Haroon Mokhtarzada, CEO of Webs. “Small businesses need to work efficiently to thrive, and a “smart” phone number helps on-the-go business owners receive calls, voicemails, and faxes from any location.”

"By partnering with RingCentral, Webs will be able to offer their customers access to the leading business phone system designed to meet the needs of small businesses everywhere,” said Victoria Treyger, Chief Marketing Officer of RingCentral.

Webs users can get toll-free numbers beginning with 800, 888, 877, 866, and 855 to make it easy for customers to reach any employee from anywhere in the country. Over 200 area codes will be available to Webs users who want a local number.  A local phone number gives area customers a convenient way to reach the business, as well as an immediate sense of the company’s business hours.

This new feature will be folded into the Location App, which is a popular application in the Webs App Store. The Location App enables businesses to display an interactive Google map of their physical location. As users install the Location App, they will be prompted to choose a toll-free or local phone number powered by RingCentral. A pop up window for reserving the number streamlines the process, making it extremely easy for Webs users to obtain a powerful cloud-based business phone system for their business.
