3. Why is One Talk good for businesses?
Instead of buying one system for office phones and another for mobile, you can control costs with a single solution to support both. One Talk helps you deliver a better customer experience and stay productive in the office or on the road.

Who should take advantage of One Talk?
One Talk is a good fit for businesses of all sizes and industries, especially if your business has multiple smaller locations or employees who are mobile or work remotely.
Does One Talk work with bring-your-own-device (BYOD) programs?
Yes. One Talk works with employee-owned Apple® iPhone® and iPad® devices, and compatible Android® smartphones and tablets from any wireless carrier.
Not all employees are mobile. What if some just need a desk phone?
Our One Talk desk phones can plug in anywhere there’s an internet connection available, so you can work in different offices—main, remote or at home. With One Talk desk phones, you get group features that help employees work together to answer every customer call.
Do I have to switch all of my services to Verizon?
No. You can download the One Talk mobile app on employee-owned (BYOD) smartphones from any U.S. carrier, and compatible desk phones can connect with any broadband internet service. One Talk can also complement your existing phone solution to address specific gaps, including supporting mobile and remote employees, business continuity, or other business needs that require rapid deployment.
Can I use my existing desk phones with One Talk?
No. Your existing desk phones won’t work with One Talk. You can choose from a large selection of One Talk desk phones with features and accessories to fit your business.
What happens to the phone number when an employee leaves the company?
The phone number is purchased by your business as part of the One Talk service. You retain the number and the customer communications come to that number.
How is One Talk managed? Is there a self-serve portal?
One Talk includes the easy-to-use My Business portal that lets you manage your business and use features. The My Verizon portal can be used by employees to manage their own useful features.
