Caller ID: Gain Full Control Over Your Calls
The Caller ID feature is a fundamental part of modern phone systems that empowers businesses to manage their communications effectively. With Caller ID, you can see who’s calling before answering and ensure that your outgoing calls display the information you choose, creating a professional image and enhancing customer trust. Whether managing inbound or outbound calls, Caller ID ensures transparency and convenience.
How Caller ID Works
Caller ID works by transmitting information about the calling party to the recipient's device. For incoming calls, the system retrieves data from the national Caller ID database and displays it on the screen while the phone rings. For outbound calls, businesses can control the information displayed, such as a specific phone number or a custom display name, ensuring consistency and professionalism in communication.
Types of Caller ID

Enhanced Caller ID:
Goes beyond basic functionality by displaying the caller’s name, location, and other details. Enhanced Caller ID is particularly useful for businesses that need more context about incoming calls to make informed decisions quickly.
