Call Continuity Service

Updated: 4/19/2024 12:58 AM

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.
