Call Continuity automatically detects a loss of phone connectivity at the extension level, then immediately directs calls to the specified backup number. For example, if you experience a power or internet outage, Vonage reroutes your calls. Once your power or internet is restored, normal call routing automatically resumes.
IMPORTANT:
- Call Continuity can not be used with Virtual Receptionists, Call Groups or Call Queues.
- Assign a Direct Dial Number to the extension before you set up Call Continuity. See Assign a Phone Number to an Extension/Feature for details.
