Free Calls in the US
Free Calls in the U.S. and Low International Rates
--------------------------------------------------
With its sleek design and enhanced calling features, the only
thing that's not impressive about the Ooma Telo is the price tag.
The Ooma Telo allows you to enjoy free calls within the United
States and low international rates, resulting in savings on your
phone bills.
Easy Installation with Your Existing Phones
-------------------------------------------
The Ooma Telo has been designed for intuitive and easy
installation: simply connect it to your router and your existing
home telephone. Most customers are connected and making calls in
less than 15 minutes. If you've got any questions, the Ooma
support site is loaded with dozens of articles, diagrams, tips,
and friendly help.
Get Peace of Mind with 911 Alerts
---------------------------------
Going out shouldn't be cause for concern when you leave your kids
with a babysitter or when you're caring for a loved one. Gain
some peace of mind with 911 Alerts. If anyone dials 911 from your
Ooma phone, we'll immediately send a text message to your cell
phone letting you know. You'll instantly be alerted that there's
a problem, and can respond to the situation appropriately.
Port Your Existing Phone Number
-------------------------------
For a one-time fee, Ooma gives you the option of retaining your
current telephone number. If you prefer to change numbers, you
can choose a new number in almost any calling area in the US at
no extra cost.
Exclusive Web Portal
--------------------
My Ooma is the online command center for your Ooma system. You
can check your voicemail and call logs, configure your
preferences, upload your Contact List, update your 911 address
and much more. Access My Ooma anytime and anywhere that you have
an Internet connection, even from your mobile .
Crisp, Clear Voice Quality with No Dropped Calls
------------------------------------------------
PureVoice HD technology allows Ooma to deliver clear audio even
when substandard calling conditions exist. It includes:
Advanced Voice Compression: Ooma uses an advanced voice
compression algorithm that consumes over 60% less bandwidth than
standard VoIP technology. That leaves you with more bandwidth for
your other online activities, and increases the likelihood that
your voice traffic will be delivered.
Wire-speed Quality of Service: Even though Ooma uses only a
fraction of the bandwidth of standard VoIP technology, those
packets need to arrive without delay for optimal quality. The
Ooma Telo prioritizes voice packets without slowing down the rest
of your network. This way you can enjoy crystal clear calls even
as you're uploading your latest video clips.
Adaptive Redundancy: Network packet loss is the enemy of VoIP -
dropped packets can cause voice to sound stuttered or garbled.
The Ooma Telo detects packet loss on your Internet connection and
automatically sends redundant packets to boost the clarity of
your phone call.
Encrypted Calls: Ooma takes your privacy seriously. We leverage
the same encryption technology that governments use to protect
classified data to protect your conversations. This makes Ooma
even more secure than the traditional landline.
High Definition Technology: HD Voice technology doubles the
fidelity of your phone calls by capturing twice the speech
information of a standard voice call (yes, that even includes
your landline). When you and the other caller both use an Ooma
Telo Handset or other HD compatible phone, your voice will sound
more natural than ever.
