Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location
Community Phone Company YC W19 built a simple cloud phone system for businesses that don’t operate a call center.
Our solution lets a business get all modern voice features (re-route if busy, greeting menu and IVR, programmable caller ID, cloud voicemail, etc) on their existing office phone and existing employee cell phones. All employees onboard instantly, no wifi required, no app to download. Businesses should not be missing out on orders because they can only take one call at a time, and they shouldn’t need an IT person in order to get a modern business phone system.
