What is SIP ALG?

SIP ALG (Application Layer Gateway) is a feature included in some routers and firewalls. It's intended to help with NAT traversal (allowing devices behind a router to communicate with the outside internet). Why SIP ALG is problematic for VoIP Although well-intentioned, SIP ALG implementations on many routers are flawed. They attempt to modify SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) packets, which are essential for setting up and managing VoIP calls.  This modification by SIP ALG often breaks core VoIP functionality, leading to issues such as: One-way audio (you can hear but not be heard, or vice-versa) Dropped calls Registration problems (phones unable to connect to the VoIP service) Inability to call certain...

Mobile App Updates April 2022

We've made a handful of improvements to the VentureTel SMS mobile app for iPhone and Android.  Simply update (or download) the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.  The improvements are primarily improvements to speed and overall performance improvements. Here's the list of updates to the app: Improved the text size and display when a users font size on their phone is set to be larger.  Previously, you couldn't see the full name, or text would overlap - this should be improved. We added paging to the list of conversations - when a user had a lot of different conversations (which tends to happen over time), it could be slow to load when switching between numbers or when switching back to the...

Automatically engage missed callers via text

Automatically engage missed callers via text

For small businesses (and big businesses too) inbound calls are potential new business so missing that call just means you're letting the competition have your customers.  Nearly 80% of people won't leave a voicemail message while the open rate on a text message is nearly 98%.  That's why we have VentureTel SMS automations. Imagine you're trying to find a new Dentist and so you go to google and search for the best local dentists, and start calling down the list.  The first dentist no one answers (probably cause they are the best dentist and really busy) and it goes to voicemail, so you hang up (cause face it, you're part of that 80%) and call the next dentist on the list.  Lucky for him he's only slightly less...
