VoxOx Gives Chiropractors Another Choice Besides Google Voice

Over a week ago, I wrote a post about Google Voice coming out of beta. Based off of the comments I received for that post, it appears that several chiropractors were able to put Google Voice through its paces before the rest of us.

Nevertheless, I still activated the service within my Google account and started exploring its features. I must say after a week of testing it out, I’m quite pleased with the service.

However, I’m also cautiously optimistic. Based off of several readers’ perspectives, all the kinks apparently haven’t been ironed out yet.

For example, Dr. Todd Lloyd explained how Google Voice failed to route a call from a new patient to the appropriate office number. Furthermore, instead of being connected immediately, the new patient had to leave a voice message.

So, just because something is out of beta, doesn’t mean it can be fully trusted. Matter of fact, my word of advice is to always have a backup plan. This may require going old school temporarily until the glitch is fixed but chiropractors need to realize that technology isn’t always perfect. If it was, Murphy’s Law wouldn’t exist.

But, being an early-adopter instinctively pushes me forward. I’m always looking for the “next big thing” to test out and see how beneficial it’ll be not only to myself but to chiropractors in general.

Well, I believe I’ve stumbled upon something that is worth looking into. Plus, it gives chiropractors an alternative to Google Voice. It’s called VoxOx.

An Introduction to VoxOx

Before I list a few of its key features, take a look at their introductory video.

So, to clarify, VoxOx integrates all of one’s communication channels into one slick interface. Here’s a list of features that they provide:

• Voice
• Text messaging
• Instant messaging
• Video calling
• Social networking
• File sharing
• eMail
• Fax

Bottom Line

Even though I’ve only used VoxOx for a short time, I’d chose it over Google Voice in a heart beat — mainly because it integrates all of my services, including Google, into one.

Also, I no longer have to jump into Mail to check email, open up Tweetie to tweet, or fire up Skype to make a VoIP call. Instead, I just use VoxOx to see all communications in one place.
