Local numbers are useful for both inbound and outbound customer teams—and when you buy them from Dialpad, you’re getting far 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 415 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 415 area code.
The (415) area code serves San Francisco, California and surrounding areas north of the 650 area code. Located in the Pacific time zone, the 415 prefix was first put into service in 1947.
As well as San Francisco itself, the area code 415 includes parts of cities like San Mateo and Brisbane. It also covers certain cities in Marin County and San Mateo County.
Dialpad’s not just about phone calls—the desktop and mobile app brings all your communication channels together into one app, from video conferencing to SMS and instant messaging, and even a contact center platform if you need it.
Use Dialpad’s desktop and mobile app across iOS, Android, PC, and Mac—or just use your web browser to join a call or video meeting, no downloads needed.
Never miss a call again. Dialpad’s call forwarding feature lets you choose up to five external numbers, so you can have calls automatically forwarded to your cell phone or landline, a colleague, or another department.
Flexible call routing
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 415 area code work number 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!)
Local numbers are a great way to make a small business seem bigger, or for larger enterprises to establish a local presence without real estate. With a 415 area code number for San Francisco, you can set up a virtual branch out of Fairfax, San Rafael, or Sausalito without having to rent or buy expensive physical office space in the Bay Area.
If you run a marketing campaign that encourages customers to dial your business number, a local one encourages them to call. And when you call them, they’ll be more inclined to pick up the phone if it's a local San Francisco, CA area code in the caller ID.
San Francisco is one of the most recognizable cities in the US, with an estimated population of almost 1 million—that’s a lot of potential customers. But there are other reasons why a San Francisco area code is an asset. San Francisco Bay Area has over 30 Fortune 500 companies based in the area. Dropbox, Salesforce, Twitter, Uber, and many other tech companies are headquartered in San Francisco.
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 415 area code.
