Zimbabweans living in the Diaspora will now be able to call back home at much cheaper rates following the launch of the first Zimbabwean cloud-based phone company to successfully deliver mobile consumer VoIP service over the Internet. Zimfon was recently launched at the Zimexpo in Dallas, Texas, setting a new revolution in the way that Zimbabweans in the Diaspora call home. Zimfon offers its subscribers a cross platform Softphone App free of charge which provides a traditional telephone interface.
What is unique about this application over other common marketplace apps is that it allows a user to call any phone number in Zimbabwe, landlines included, without the need for IP connectivity for the receiving Zimbabwe end.
Likewise a caller in Zimbabwe can return the call at local rates as with a local call. The service has been growing in popularity with thousands of Zimbabweans now globally connected to friends and families back at home. In order to take advantage of such a feature, calling service potential users will need to register for a Zimbabwe number at Zimfon.com.
“The Zimfon platform is a welcome development in the Diaspora call home space as most people have been using calling cards which are known for fraudulent activities ranging from dishonest marketing practices, namely hidden fees, connect charges and promising certain number on minutes while delivering a lower value.
“With Zimfon Mobile subscribers can ditch their calling card and join a network loaded with future proof features such as caller ID and account management online. The free Softphone Apps can be downloaded from Google play, iTunes or the from the company website,” a spokesman for the company said.
Zimfon is top ranked in technical support and customer service offering call centres in the USA, UK and South Africa.
