[NFBCS] Microsoft Phone Link question

[mike at michaelhingson.com]

Joe,

How are you finding Google Voice? I found it to be somewhat inaccessible a few years ago and stopped using it.


Best Regards,


Michael Hingson

Phone Link is too clunky to be a viable solution. The synchronization is too fractured to be reliable. I get along better with Google Voice for the sort of thing I think you're looking for.

Anyone using Microsoft Phone Link to help make working on projects easier?  I would like to use the software to better manage texts, dictating texts has produced some embarrassing results recently.  In digging through the documentation under notes it states does not work with work/school accounts.  I am assuming this refers to the version of Office.  Is there a work around or an alternative?

I have looked at the Connection Point software but it is far too robust for my needs plus it is $12/mo.

Thanks,
Patrick
