It also calls two numbers of my choice for notification purposes when I dial 911. All voicemails appear on the phone but are also emailed to my wife and myself. We have the OOMA app on our phones which allow us to call US phones from anywhere in the world at no cost as long as I have an internet connection. OOMA premium has call forwarding, and call forwarding on network or power failure. There are other features which I don’t recall at this moment.<br>
