Explore Video Meetings →Your office number. Your desktop or Pro app.
Answer and place business calls on either device. Add an AI virtual attendant, round-robin calling, department and staff extensions, recording and transcription.
Explore Virtual Phone →How Canopy handles this
Canopy can add Google Meet or Microsoft Teams links and use AI Meeting Notetaker to capture scheduled meetings. It also documents mobile client calling; these are distinct from a full office phone system.
TAAX Video Meetings and Virtual Phone are purchased separately and can be added to any plan. Phone-number charges and calling usage are separate. “Not listed” means we did not find the feature in the official documentation reviewed; it is not a guarantee that no option exists. Integrations and availability can change.
