Google takes on Skype

Posted by Michael under Business Growth, Search

Google Voice is a service that will provide “one phone number for all your phones.”

After the acquisition of GrandCentral two years ago, Google has relaunched the service as Google Voice. Google has incorporated several useful features which include: 

• Easy voicemails
• Text messaging
• Call blocking
• Call screening
• Call conferencing
• Voicemail transcripts
• Low-priced international calls
• New user interface

There are established companies, such as Skype, SpinVox and Bueno, who compete in the Voiceover Internet Protocol (VoIP) market. However, providing a central interface to manage all phone calls and automated transcripts is an attractive feature that will encourage users to switch to Google.

Anyone can register with Google Voice by signing up at: www.google.com/voiceinvite .

Invitations will be sent as soon as Google Voice is available for widespread use.
