Voicemail (optional)

UMR subscribes to Unified Messaging from Cisco. Customers who currently have voicemail will automatically be converted over to the new Unified Messaging system at no extra charge. However, no voicemail messages will be transferred from the old system to the new system.

Customers who do not have voicemail, but would like to subscribe to Unified Messaging should contact UMR Information Technology to establish a Unified Messaging account. That customer’s department should be made aware that this will result in a small fee assessed against the department. This fee is the same as the old voicemail system fee.

All Unified Messaging customers will need to go through the process of initializing their Unified Messaging mailbox, as detailed below.
