Re: YouMail
If it ain't broke, don't fix it is generally my take on something like this. Voipo already offers all the features and then some that I'd ever want or need from a voip provider. I'd rather not have to pay additional money for additional features (such as more voice mail features).
I've found that the more you rely on multiple services the more things can go wrong, and the harder it is to get it fixed. Just as an example, Voip is already subject to several factors - my internet connection, my house's power grid, and the Voipo network(s). If any one of those goes down, my voip phone is useless. Using a different VM provider (if I understand the proposition correctly) would add yet another area where things could go wrong. Even just adding the potential complexity of the option to select either voipo or youmail for VM could result in added VM routing/selection issues.
I don't mind added features, but again, only if I didn't have to eventually pay more for my standard voipo service package. When it comes to priorities in my service, first and foremost is reliability and call quality. Then come secondary features, and fairly low on the list is voice mail. Voipo VM already gives you a fairly wide range of features and several ways to access your messages, which is more than enough for me.
So my short answer is I have no interest in youmail, but I'm not categorically opposed to it under the assumption that 1) it won't raise costs, and 2) it won't be a potential risk to standard voipo voice mail reliability (due to things like added complexity of the system's functioning and vpanel operations/menus, etc).
