Local numbers are useful for both inbound and outbound customer teams—and when you buy them from Dialpad, you’re getting much more than just a VoIP phone number.
All of Dialpad’s paid unified communications plans come with a local number included, in this case a number with your local 347 area code. This is along with unified communications features like phone calls, video conferencing, SMS/MMS messaging and team messages, and more—all from one intuitive, easy-to-use desktop or mobile app:
The lowest plan starts at just $15/user/month, which also includes unlimited calling and texting in the US and Canada!
Next, let’s look at why you might need a 347 area code.
The (347) area code serves the The Big Apple itself, New York (not including Manhattan). But besides New York, 347 also serves surrounding cities like:
Located in the Eastern time zone, it’s part of an overlay complex that includes the 718, 917, and 929 area codes, which all serve the same area. The 347 prefix was first put into service years ago, back in 1999.
Dialpad’s not just about phone calls—the desktop and mobile app lets you communicate through different channels, from video conferencing to SMS/MMS and instant messaging, and there's even a contact center platform if you need it.
Use Dialpad’s desktop and mobile app on any device you want, including iOS, Android, PC, and Mac. Or, just use your web browser to join a conference call or video meeting, no downloads needed. (Clients and prospects tend to love this because they don't have to download any software to join your online meeting.)
Never miss a call again. Dialpad’s call forwarding feature lets you choose a maximum of five external phone numbers so you can have calls automatically forwarded to your cell phone or landline, a colleague, or another department.
Smart call routing gets your callers to the right department or person—without you having to lift a finger. With Dialpad, you can easily set your own rules for specific people or departments, have out-of-hours calls sent to voicemail, and make changes to your IVR without any help from IT.
With Dialpad, you can make work calls from your personal cell phone—while showing your 347 area code business number (or any other business phone number you have) and protecting your privacy.
Dialpad’s built-in AI is built by our own team and integrated directly into the communications platform to transcribe your phone calls and video meetings—in real-time. This way, you don't have to be distracted with note-taking and can give them your full attention (and Dialpad even detects highlights and action items).
When you're in back-to-back meetings all day, you can't always listen to every voicemail. Dialpad's visual voicemail feature transcribes your voicemails into text, so you can quickly read them when it isn't convenient to listen to them. (It even emails the audio and text versions to you!)
Try all these features out in Dialpad's unified communications platform! Sign up for a 14-day free trial to take it for a test drive. It takes just a few minutes, and you'll be set up with a 347 number too. Or, take a self-guided interactive tour of Dialpad to play with the app on your own first!
Local numbers are a great way to make a small business seem bigger, or for larger enterprises to establish a local presence without having to rent or lease a physical location there. With a 347 area code number for New York, for instance, you can set up a virtual branch out of Kings, Queens, the Bronx, Richmond, and more—all without having to rent or buy a physical office space.
And if you're running a marketing campaign that's trying to get potential customers to dial your business number, you can increase the chances of them calling if you make it a local number. Typically, people are far more likely to call since they won't have to worry about long-distance charges. And when you call them, they’ll be more inclined to pick up the phone if it's a local New York area code on the caller ID.
And from a business perspective, what more can we say about New York? It's one of the biggest financial centers in the world, with major banks, other corporations, and some of the most popular sports teams around like the New York Yankees and New York Knicks. With a population and economy this size, having a New York area code is a huge asset if you want to reach customers and prospects in this area.
It’s super-easy to look up area codes and add a local number in Dialpad. When you sign up for a free 14-day trial, which takes just a few minutes, you’ll also be set up with a phone number with your area code of choice—in this case, a 347 area code.
