Hi. I'm trying to get an answer on this.

 

I'm looking to port my number over from another provider but I wanted to know if I have the ability to send direct sms messages to the phone number and from my phone number?

Hi @packergeek05 

 

Yes you do from your Zoom phone App ( desktop or mobile ) in US/CA.  Here are the details to setup:

So just to clarify. 

 

Say my number is 503-xxx-xxxx. I want my customers to be able to text to 503-xxx-xxxx. At 8x8 I couldn't send directly to my 503-xxx-xxxx number. But you're saying I can send and receive directly from the 503-xxx-xxxx line using the Zoom app from mobile or desktop?

Thats correct @packergeek05 You will send / receive all SMSs directly via your zoom app. See screenshot:
