XOIP Introduces 'Find Me / Follow Me' Feature on Dutch Numbers

If you've already desperately been waiting for Google Voice to come to the Netherlands, this is for you!

XOIP added a 'find/follow me' functionality to all XOIP numbers. The feature - also known as a 'hunt group / ring group' - allows forwarding of incoming calls to multiple phone numbers and Skype simultaneously (find me) or one after the other (follow me).

The product has been successfully launched right in time for the 'Kennedymars Fryslan' on 27 and 28 August 2010 - a yearly 80km public hiking event . On a single XOIP number, the 500+ participants could reach any of the control center's mobile staff members for assistance at any time throughout the 2-day event.

Like many other users, the organizers were happy to have found an alternative to fixs.nl, a ring group service that suddenly disappeared a couple of weeks ago - and this even at much lower calling rates, with XOIP.

Additional cool features like scheduled forwarding by time and day will be added soon!
