Voip.ms is great for a simple SIP trunk but it has almost none of the programmable voice and other features of Telnyx or Twilio.

A number of years ago I wanted to drop a webhook when a call came in on VoIP.ms but couldn't find any way to do it natively.

Ended up sticking a twilio endpoint in the ring group with a "press 1 to accept this call" message so it wouldn't eat the call, then was able to fire an http request with the call details.

It worked well, although I admit I was a little annoyed I couldn't do it directly with VoIP.ms.

ah yeah, I'm about to setup a grandstream ht801 for a voip home phone so I probably dont need all that
