"q": "Why would I get a 579 number instead of 450?",
"a": "579 and 450 cover the exact same region, so the number you receive mainly depends on availability at the time your line is activated. There is no difference in call quality or dialing between the two."

"a": "No. The number lives in the cloud: your team answers the 579 from anywhere, right in the app."
