How is Bandwidth involved with origination/inbound calling

Bandwidth’s network is designed and built exclusively for IP-based voice. Our customers get quick access to cost-effective, nationwide coverage, high-quality service, and portals, as well as APIs and platforms that help them differentiate their offerings in the marketplace. Since Bandwidth owns the network, we don’t get stalled out by legacy hardware, agreements, or billing practices that can sometimes be barriers to success.

What are the benefits of Bandwidth’s origination/inbound calling

Bandwidth’s nationwide footprint covers over 7,000 rate centers (with extended coverage in Canada, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico) and has tens of millions of numbers in inventory, making us the sixth largest voice provider in the country. If you have a customer out there, chances are we offer Direct Inward Dialing (DID) numbers to cover their market on our network (on-net). And because it’s on-net, customers benefit from high quality service with less external dependencies and more competitive pricing.
