What is Phone Number Porting?

Number porting is the process of moving your existing business phone number from your current service provider to another. This is also referred to as number transferring. The main idea of number porting is to keep your current number while switching to a different service provider.

But, why change your service provider in the first place? Well, there are a few reasons why switching your number to a new provider may be a good idea; you can get:

Better voice and audio quality
Lower monthly bills
Access to advanced call management features
Improved customer support and more!

So, you can add functionality to your system and boost the quality of your current business communications. And, you don’t have to notify your customers or prospects of the change, as you keep your existing business phone number.
