FAQ
Questions before you forward the phone
Does it use my business information?
Yes. Zio Voice answers from the services, hours, and policies you give it. It does not invent details that are not in your setup.
Can I keep my current phone number?
Yes. Forward the calls you miss, or the calls that come in while you are busy. Customers keep dialing the number they already know.
Can it book appointments?
It captures leads and booking requests. It books directly only when a supported calendar is connected, such as Google Calendar or Calendly.
How will I hear about a call?
You can get an email alert, an SMS alert, or both. SMS is optional and stays off until you turn it on.
How many minutes are in the free trial?
The 14-day trial does not ask for a credit card and includes 30 minutes. After that, the plan is $199/mo for 1,000 minutes. If you need more minutes, contact support.
