SkypeIn Auto attendant needed

Does anyone know a good program/app that can act as an auto attendant for an existing skype in number, to redirect calls to different skype accounts?

 

Basically we already have a skypeIn number, and we require an auto attendant 'Press 1 for A, Press 2 for B' to then transfer these calls to other skype accounts.

 

We've looked at Zaplee but they need us to get Skype Connect, which is expensive and limits our number of inbound calls (currently only limited by number of users signed into same skype account on different computers.

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Agares Auto Attendant is the only one I know that works well.

You have to have a Skype In number, it only works on PCs and Skype needs to be running all the time to trigger the Auto Attendant. I'm not sure why this hasn't been developed more widely, if anyone knows of another auto attendant that you don't need to be online for it to pick up the call, please advise.

I'm not sure they have the transfer function, have never tried that, but the auto attendant piece works well if you just want to give basic info

Hi Folks - Mihir from Zaplee - thanks for trying us out. You can use it through SkypeConnect but you don't HAVE to. We can provision a number for you and ours come with unlimited channels included. If you need to have the SkypeIn number, we can port it over - would still recommend you use SkypeOut for outbound or you can use the Skype Subscriptions for the same thing. Good luck!
