About Us

CallFire.com began as Skyy Consulting Inc in 2004 as an open-source VoIP consultancy.   Our client’s demanding VoIP integration projects required us to develop a reliable, enterprise-level VoIP platform. The platform we created (and continue to enhance today) is called CallFire.com.

Here at CallFire.com, we try to make using VoIP, simple.  We’re dedicated to providing high-availability systems, beautiful user interfaces, furious developer support and unparalleled customer care.  We are a unique group of intellectuals with aspirations to truly change how companies do business. 

CallFire.com is a small company with fewer than 20 employees located in beautiful downtown Los Angeles.   We’re just an hour from the snow and 20 minutes from the beach.  We work harder than we play, and we play harder than most!

Thank you for getting to know us and thanks for using CallFire.com!
