So I’ve been doing research and learned of the new things; Jmp.chat, jabber, xmpp.

So If I got it correct, xmpp is an open protocol that apps such as zoom and WhatsApp use to transmit messages. I’m not sure what jabber is yet but i think the jabber id you get acts like an email such as “johndoe@notgmail.com” and that is how people can send you messages.

Now my main question is if JMP.chat could be a replacement for MySudo or Google voip and any other voip providers. Basically can I use a phone number from JMP.Chat to use as my business phone number that I can get calls to, make calls from, receive to and text from, or use as a random number to give out to random websites or random people.

I am currently using MySudo but before I get more numbers to better compartmentalize my life, I was looking at better options and if I understand it correctly, JMP.Chat seems to fill that gap perfectly.

Please inform and/or correct me if I misunderstood or got something wrong as I want to learn what it is, if it’s a viable replacement and if it’s something I can utilize to better compartmentalize my life. Thanks you in advance

You get 120 minutes per month of talk time. Is that enough for your business needs?

Yes that’s plenty of time. Is it just one number? For 5 bucks a month? And if I wanted more I would have to get another subscription with a different jabber id? Thank you for the reply by the way!!

I'm not a customer but from what I've read on the their site it's one number. A second number is quite a bit cheaper but I don't know if that includes another 120 minutes.

Like you say, a second account is also an option.
