Consumers Can Have GrandCentral and Read Voicemail Too with PhoneTag
NEW YORK and SAN FRANCISCO, May 13 /PRNewswire/ -- PhoneTag, the leader
in voicemail-to-text services and visual voicemail applications, announced
today that its award winning voicemail-to-text service is now available to
Google GrandCentral users through its website http://www.PhoneTag.com. This
first-of-its-kind integration enables GrandCentral users to stop listening
to voicemail and start saving time and money by reading it.
Prior to this integration, consumers who wanted to experience unified
communication had to choose between PhoneTag, which automatically
transcribes and delivers voice messages as text and Google's GrandCentral
service, which rings all phones at once. GrandCentral does not offer
voicemail-to-text to its user base, nor does it deliver a .wav file of the
original voice message. Now consumers can have all their numbers ring at
the same time and, if the call goes unanswered, be able to read their
voicemail through PhoneTag.
"PhoneTag's integration with GrandCentral gives our users more
flexibility in how they want to experience our voicemail-to-text service,"
said James Siminoff, Founder and CEO of PhoneTag. "Customers no longer need
to decide between using PhoneTag or GrandCentral, now they can seamlessly
experience both services."
PhoneTag's service works with over 95 percent of U.S. and Canadian
carriers, as well as office phone systems, enabling users to read voicemail
instead of having to dial in and listen to it. PhoneTag, under its former
name, SimulScribe, was recently rated as having the highest transcription
quality by Information Week. Since launching its commercial service in
January 2007, PhoneTag has received numerous awards including two coveted
Four Star Ratings from PC Magazine and Laptop Magazine's Editor's Choice
Award.
