24-hour call answering service for every opportunity.
An after hours answering service can help you fill the gaps in your customer support schedule. Already have a dedicated front office team to answer calls during regular business hours? Your receptionists can't work all day, but clients still expect a response when they call.
With a 24-hour call answering service for your office, that's exactly what they'll get. When your team goes home, your calls are diverted to us. Our teams deliver excellent customer service until your team is ready to take over again.
What does an after hours
answering service offer?
Already have a dedicated team to answer your calls during the day? That's great! But in a 24/7 world, customers expect round-the-clock responses. An answering service that only covers business hours means customer support stops when your office closes. And when callers reach an 'out-of-office' voicemail, they rarely return.

What is an after-hours-answering service?

For businesses with an existing dedicated team answering calls during the day, after-hours answering service is essential to ensure callers reach a real person when they call outside of your business hours.

How much does an after-hours answering service cost? Is billing done by the call, by the minute or by the month?
![Arrow icon]()
You'll choose a monthly plan based on how many minutes you think you'll use. We calculate minutes based on the total time required to handle the call, including any after-call work our receptionists do to take your messages.
If, mid-month, you realize you might use significantly more or less than the minutes included in your plan, we're happy to scale your services up or down before the next billing cycle.
