Today’s workforce is extremely mobile due to increased connectivity and the improvement of various technologies. Some of these essential characteristics are digital transmissions over the Internet, Voice over Internet Protocol, VoIP, and other voice networking solutions. Phone system requirements in the workplace have dramatically changed to allow for mobility. One feature is the ability for users to remotely access their voicemail when they are away from their desk phone.

It’s now possible to listen to your voicemail messages from your smartphone or other phone if you are traveling, out sick, or even overseas in another country. Your employees can check their business voicemail when they are away by using their number, extension, and voicemail password. Simply enter a passcode to make the voicemail system available, then follow the operator instructions to access messages, change greetings, or modify other voicemail options anywhere.
