What is Business-hours routing?

Business-hours routing makes calls behave differently depending on the time of day, the day of the week, and bank holidays.

In hours the call rings your team; out of hours the caller hears an out-of-hours message and goes to voicemail or an emergency mobile, instead of ringing an empty office. Set your opening hours once and the system follows them. Silux Call includes it from Plus, or £2/month as an add-on; Virtual Landline puts the same thing behind its £10.95 plan.
