selecting, at the system, one of the plurality of VoIP identifiers, the one of the plurality of VoIP identifiers corresponding to the device identifier of the plurality of identifiers;
providing, from the system, the one of the plurality of VoIP identifiers to the VoIP system;
in response to providing the one of the plurality of VoIP identifiers, receiving, at the system, VoIP credentials for the device, the VoIP credentials configured to authenticate the device with the VoIP system such that the device is able to receive the VoIP services from the VoIP system without further communication with the system; and
providing the VoIP credentials to the device from the system.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the device identifier is obtained from a database that is part of the system.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the VoIP credentials are passed through the system to the device and not maintained in the system after providing the VoIP credentials to the device.
10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the device is able to receive the VoIP services from the VoIP system without further communication with the system until the VoIP credentials expire, wherein after expiration of the VoIP credentials, one or more operations of the method of claim 7 are repeated to obtain renewed VoIP credentials from the VoIP system.
11. The method of claim 7 , further comprising encrypting the VoIP credentials such that the VoIP credentials provided to the device are encrypted.
12. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
receiving, at the system, audio of a communication session between a second device and the device, the communication session implemented using the VoIP system;
generating text data based on the audio of the communication session; and
providing the text data to the device, the device configured to present the text data and the audio simultaneously.
13. At least one non-transitory computer readable media configured to store one or more instructions that when executed by at least one computing system performs the method of claim 7 .
