Google Voice is a great option for a local phone number that can forward to your personal number
Overall Satisfaction with Google Voice
Google Voice gives me a nice option for calling, messaging, and receiving voicemail from a computer with a local number. It's especially useful when travelling internationally, or when I need a local number that's not my personal number to make a call.
Pros
- Stores voicemail
- Transcribes voicemail
- Filters spam (pretty well)
Cons
- It's a little difficult to transfer/move phone numbers around accounts.
- Voicemail transcription is a nice feature, but doesn't actually always work that well in practice.
- Desktop support is not as robust as other Google apps have recently become.
- Don't have to share my personal number for business purposes
- Can make international calls easily
- Can see and manage voicemail whenever
