What the phone looks like for a London security company
London and the wider Greater London has a population of around 9.7 million, built on professional services, hospitality and an enormous base of independent trades serving them. That produces a lot of phone calls, and for a security company working across the City, Camden and Croydon most of them arrive at the exact moment nobody can pick up.
A site that needs cover tonight will use whoever answers, and that contract often becomes a long one.
Callwise answers on your own 020 number. Customers ring the number they already have, it is answered on the first ring by something that sounds like a person, and the job is booked into your diary before the caller has thought about trying anybody else.

London security companies ask us
Do we keep our 020 number?
Yes. Your existing 020 number stays exactly as it is and keeps ringing your phones. Calls only reach the assistant when nobody picks up, or at the hours you choose, so nothing about how London customers reach you changes.
Do you work with security companies outside London?
Yes. There is nothing local about how it works, so London and everywhere across Greater London is covered the same way, along with the rest of the UK. The local part is your number and your customers, and both stay yours.
Can it handle short notice cover requests?
It takes the site, the hours and the requirement and reaches your operations manager immediately, at whatever hour the call comes.
Is it suitable for live incidents?
Anything on your incident list bypasses everything and alerts your control room within seconds.
Will it take installation enquiries?
Yes, with the site type and what they want covered, and it books the survey.
Security companies elsewhere
Hear it answer, then decide
Ring it and ask what a London customer would ask. It is the same assistant your callers would get, so if it does not convince you on the phone it will not convince them either.
