Learn more about Google Voice

UIndy employees

In an effort to both provide a more modern and flexible phone system, as well as shift to a subscription model that will allow our phone costs to better reflect our true usage and size, we have moved to Google Voice for all phone services.

Google Voice is a digital phone system built for the cloud and ties straight into your UIndy Google Workspace Account. All calling activities are performed either on a browser on your computer or an app on your mobile phone. 

For a quick overview of Google Voice you can watch this video.
