Ooma Enables Free Calling with Amazon Echo

CES, LAS VEGAS, NV - Tuesday, January 5th, 2016

Ooma, Inc. (NYSE: OOMA), a leading smart business and home communications platform, now integrates with Amazon Echo and Amazon Alexa to provide free phone calls to Amazon Echo users and advanced voice-enabled calling capabilities to Ooma Telo users. This newest integration complements Ooma’s portfolio of connected home offerings, including integrations with Nest, Apple Watch, Android Wear, Philips Hue, WeMo LIFX and Dropbox.

Free calling for Amazon Echo users

Amazon Echo customers can now ask Alexa, the Amazon voice service, to initiate phone calls to and from Ooma’s cloud platform using voice commands. The Ooma Skill can be enabled from the Amazon Alexa App and activated for free by entering any phone number, including mobile and landline numbers.

“Alexa, use Ooma to call Mom”

For current Ooma Telo owners, Amazon’s voice-enabled smart assistant, Alexa, allows users to initiate phone calls using voice commands. The call recipient can be identified by name if the contact information is entered into the Ooma online contact list. Alexa can also trigger playing Ooma voicemails by using the voice-command, “Alexa, use Ooma to play voicemail.”

“As the first-ever smart home phone service to enable calling capabilities triggered through Amazon Echo, Ooma once again brings convenience and simplicity to consumers’ lives by serving as the communications hub of the connected home,” said Eric Stang, CEO of Ooma. “Now anyone with an Amazon Echo can experience Ooma’s top-rated smart home phone service for free, whether or not they’re an Ooma customer.”

Ooma is demonstrating the Amazon Echo integration as well as integrations with Nest, Apple Watch, Android Wear, Philips Hue, WeMo and LIFX at the Consumer Electronics Show, January 6-9, at booth #21244 in the South Hall. Current Ooma customers can access Amazon Echo features as part of their existing service. For more information, visit www.ooma.com.
