Introduction
This guide is specifically designed for clients of Iconology who utilise our Horizon VoIP service. This service’s ‘Number Presentation’ feature enables users to present any UK or International number as their caller ID. It’s an essential tool for businesses requiring a flexible approach to their outbound calling identity, such as outsourced finance companies representing their clients.
Usage Case Example
For instance, consider an outsourced finance firm that needs to make calls on behalf of a client.
