Skype is shutting down? Discover the perfect alternative with FijoVirtual.com

Microsoft has officially announced the shutdown of Skype virtual numbers, leaving thousands of users without a simple way to receive calls on a fixed virtual number. At FijoVirtual.com, we offer you an immediate, cost-effective, and flexible solution so you can continue receiving business calls without interruptions.

Which Skype service is being discontinued?

Skype used to allow users to purchase a virtual number that let them receive calls from any traditional phone directly into the Skype app. This feature was widely used by freelancers, small businesses, and expatriates, but it will no longer exist. Microsoft plans to transition users to Microsoft Teams, a platform focused on online meetings and collaboration — but not tailored for handling incoming calls via a dedicated virtual number.

At FijoVirtual.com, we specialize in providing fixed virtual numbers tailored to your needs — without tying you to any specific app or platform. Your number works on any device: mobile phone, computer, tablet, or IP PBX.

Advantages over Skype

  • Local numbers in over 50 countries.
  • No mandatory apps required.
  • Customizable call forwarding and settings.
  • Lower rates with no long-term commitment.
  • Direct support in English and Spanish.

How to migrate from Skype to FijoVirtual.com

Skype does not allow direct number porting, but the migration process is easy:

  1. Order a new virtual fixed number from FijoVirtual.com.
  2. Inform your clients and contacts about your new number.
  3. Update your website, social media, and email signature.
  4. Set up call forwarding, voicemail, and greetings through our online portal.

Within 24 hours, you’ll be fully operational — no Skype or Teams required.

What about Teams? Is it a real alternative?

Microsoft encourages users to switch to Teams, but this platform is designed for online meetings, internal chats, and collaboration. It’s not the right fit if you simply need a virtual fixed number to handle business calls.

Additionally, Teams requires costly subscriptions and complex configurations. With FijoVirtual.com, you get a flexible, affordable, and easy-to-use alternative.

Who can benefit from this migration?

  • Freelancers with international clients.
  • Companies with remote teams.
  • Online businesses that need a visible fixed number.
  • Professionals who want to separate personal and business calls.
  • Expats who want to keep a local number in their home country.

With FijoVirtual.com, you get more than a simple number. You gain access to a full range of features, including:

  • Easy-to-use online management portal.
  • Smart call forwarding and simultaneous ringing.
  • Custom voicemail greetings.
  • Call recording (optional).

  • Integration with IP PBX or CRM systems.
