I've been using Grancentral ever since it was aquired by google, and its been great.

The main use was so that I didn't have to give out my personal cell phone number for work, and so that I didn't have to carry a second phone.

Having a separate voicemail box just for work has been great, and I've even used the call recording feature when someone was giving me very important detailed instructions.

No concerns with spam, and I haven't noticed any downtime, so I'd recommend it.

Would love to see more integration so I don't have a whole separate address book in Grandcentral...

I've been using my GC# in a similar manner and its been a great experience. The call log and the ability to filter #'s is a good way to categorize and 'file' my phone calls - And I really like the new UI too!

I was skeptical at first when GC launched (mainly having to give out a new number), but once you properly configure your settings and start getting phone calls you start realizing the service's usefulness.
