I am looking for a cloud telephony solution that would allow me to create a routing service. The service would work as follows:

1. The user calls the number,
2. The user makes some menu choices using a dail pad,
3. Based on some data fetched from a DB and the user's choice, a certain number is selected,
4. The user is then routed to that number.

The list of numbers will change perhaps once a day or so. Additionally, I would like to be able to record the calls and have them available for a certain period of time.

It seems to me that what I describe resembles the most a call centre (THOUGH in this case the service provided would be something else).

Question: Do you know of any cloud telephony service that would fit this use-case? What is the pricing model for this kind of service generally? Can it be per-call or per-call-minute flat model? Any useful keywords to use?

Have been googling this for hours now and still without luck. Many thanks!

You should look at twilio and OpenVBX, by twilio itself for this if you're in the US. OpenVBX is pretty versatile and has a lot more to offer than what you've mentioned. You can also look at plivo

If you're in India or Southeast Asia , you can look at Exotel
