Benefits
The IdentiCall offers the following benefits:
With IdentiCall you can enjoy the ultimate security, because you can see whose calling you, reduce unwanted calls i.e. prank, hoax or harassing calls (except those numbers restricted by the caller)
Your incoming calls are logged, whether or not they have been answered, so you needn't worry about missing calls except those restricted. You can simply return calls when it is convenient
A flashing light informs you of any incoming call that has been stored
Because you have a record of incoming callers' numbers, it's much easier to call back even if you've lost someone's number
You can screen your calls when you're busy and only answer the most important ones; the rest you can call back when you are ready
Knowing who is calling before you pick up the handset means you can answer your calls in the appropriate manner
