While iPhone has the first-mover advantage on visual voicemail, it is also open to loopholes and improvements. This is where other companies like Acision come in.
Seeing that mobile users want more versatility, it has partnered with Action Engine to launch its multi-platform Visual Voicemail. It offers three advantages compared with standard iPhone Visual Voicemail:
1. Supports advertising insertion
2. Forwards voicemail text alerts to any e-mail address
3. Allows deletion of individual messages
4. Supports "confidential" and "priority" flags on voicemail messages.
This added convenience is a welcome feature to millions of mobile users having problems with the traditional sequential voicemails. The game is just starting, so expect other players to come up with unique offerings soon.

Simulscribe beat out iPhone to the visual voicemail punch by launching their SimulSays application way before the iPhone was even available. Their service allows users to read their voicemails right from their handset! Free trial at http://www.SimulScribe.com

SimulSays beta by SimulScribe already enables users to sort and pick each voicemail to listen to as well as read their voicemail - a step up from the iPhone's "visual voicemail". SimulScribe and Arizona Bay partnered up to develop SimulSays beta for Windows Mobile and BlackBerry. SimulSays beta is free; it lets you listen to your voice mail in any order, receive e-mail notifications, archive your messages, and otherwise manage them in a visual way on your smartphone. It also integrates with your cell phone's address book. To clarify, SimulScribe is the voicemail-to-text automated transcription service that lets you read your voice mail messages as text. SimulScribe costs $9.99 per month, plus $0.25 per message over 40 for that month. You can integrate SimulSays with SimulScribe to scroll, click, listen and READ your voicemail.
