GrandCentral.com - Is anyone using this for their business?
I've been testing out the Grandcentral service since late last year, but I have only begun incorporating it with my other business tools in the last month. Has anyone thought about using it with their business? And especially since Google bought out the company, does anyone think this is going to be Googles answer to Vonage?

Last time I checked it was against their TOS to use it for a business. If you do I would not advertise it.

I actually know of alot of people that are using Grandcentral for business. They even have a feature called Webcall where you can place a button on your website and have people such as customers, call you directly. I think they might need to update their TOS to make it alittle more clear though.

yes, GC did update the tos... or at least they advertise for people to use it in their business (ebay, online, etc).
I thought about using it, but it is a beta program... I would use a beta program in my business, but not one like this... although, I am tempted.
Heck, with the online button calls, the caller cannot see your telephone number... cool...
I found GC the other day and love it so far.....

Grand Central is not for commercial use.
From their current TOS:

GrandCentral reserves the right to immediately disconnect or modify a Subscriber's Service if GrandCentral determines, in its sole discretion, that Subscriber's use of the Service is, or at any time was, inconsistent with normal personal, non-commercial usage patterns.
