<div>I'm not too sure on that. I don't really know, unless maybe for an IVR and you want a menu of options (which can only be 1 digit) and also dial direct to the extension. That would limit you in that regard.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have a suggestion regarding dial plan. When I first started I saw no reason to have to dial 9 first for outside calls. Because I wanted to be able to dial out from the missed calls list, I chose to eliminate the dial 9 requirement. I'm now regretting it, primarily because 711 is a valid number, but also a parking spot. I can handle 911, and I can handle 411, but 711 is going to be a pain.

<div>Just wanted to give you something to consider when you are starting out. Something I didn't consider.<br><br> </div>
