As the half the United States becomes inundated with snow today, offices across the country become empty and productivity is lost.

With today's technology, many people can work from home using a computer and VPN with no problem but what about those important phone calls? Support, sales, etc.

Can you really afford to miss one, two, five days because of weather?

The nice thing about a virtual PBX is that you can forward calls to ANY number on ANY phone. We say it all the time but it really is a great feature for any business.

An employee simply has to log into your Grashopper account and change their call forwarding number to their home or cell phone. All those calls you could potentially be missing are avoided and the employee doesn't have to worry about giving clients their personal phone number.

As a business, being able to ensure your customers can reach you and no important calls are missed, despite what is happening with mother nature, is a great feeling.
