    AT&T
    I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing. AT&T is simply the worst company I have ever dealt with for any service. Ever. I have spent hours on hold trying to explain that my newly purchased AT&T phones from Yealink do not work. "Searching for base". That is all I get. After several attempts to figure out what is going on or why or how to fix I am still without working office phones. I finally got thru to someone that informed me that my phones were removed from my account. I offered the order number to prove I did in fact purchase the phone's from AT&T but they could not use this information. It is unsettling how this could happen and I cannot fix it. I have been deleted. I know I am not alone in my frustration. I will now begin working on removing AT&T from my life. Including the shotting Fiber Optic line at home and at work

    In the past, I would have happily recommended this for small business use cases. Due to its affordability, versatility, and low barrier to entry as well as its simplicity to use. Google Voice was integrated into the Chrome Browser, it was easily accessed from Gmail, and integrated into Gmail and could even be leveraged in such a way to when phone numbers were clicked on, Google Voice was the tool used. However over the past few years and more, in the past couple of years from 2021 to current, this tool seems to have lost favor with the Alphabet suite of tools. With the lack of integrations, it's becoming less stable, and people are just opting more for Google Meet Voice. The biggest area where this is less appropriate and where opportunity has opened for others is its lack of features, like virtual attendants, call recording, call transcription, SMS, MMS, CRM integration, and other key features even 1 or 2 person business really needs in this day and age

    • I think there is room to improve with regards to call forwarding.
    • I wish there were a concise way to know if the call was to your Google Voice number or your personal number before answering the call.
    • when I add a contact to my account on the web it doesn't seem to sync with my phone even though the same email address is logged in.

    It's user friendly, how to use it is self explanatory, they support all their own options while someone like Phone Booth uses a third party. I can cancel Google Voice anytime and I choose how much I spend with Google Voice

    Simply the worst customer service I have ever experienced. It took me over 72 minutes to write this review. That is how long I have been on hold unsuccessfully. I cannot imagine that anyone in charge of AT&T would care that I will gladly take my business elsewhere but if you do... someone in the system has my contact information. I won't hold my breath.

    I haven't had problems with dropped calls, bad reception, lost recordings - everything works the way it should. The iOS app is easy to use, and the process is easy to explain to other people. It's also the cheapest way I've found to call internationally - I've used it to interview people from London and Austraila.

    They do not offer support unless you have the Business account for Google Voice under G Suite. This is tough, because Google doesn't really have a customer support team for this service, so when it gets shut down for a few hours, we have no choice but to wait it out. But this doesn't happen that often, which is great.

    It is a pretty seamless program to transfer to, even for people who either have little experience with these programs or people who were stuck on Skype

    Horrible. Collaberate was a little slow at times in responding, but they never just left us hanging with unresolved issues. I am now going with a local guy so I do not have to deal with this stuff. I get very irritated when I am transferred to someone over seas that English is not their first language, and they are working off of a script. Although some of them were more helpful than my assigned migration person.

    The integrations of Google Voice with all our devices are flawless, Android, iOS, Windows, Linux and Mac. Also, the call performance is far superior on wifi as well as on mobile data. With Skype, we had several problems with personal accounts, performance issues, and in general, it felt awkward to use it.

    Google Voice should be also be use to those who have difficulty in speaking English. So the contract term will need to be a little strict as Google Voice is used in navigations as the part of GPRS navigation is personal. The private data need to be in control much more securely and safely.

    It help to connect with the products that we use as a part. We need to get in touch with our professional world. It is like a tool that helps us to get in touch with everything from A to Z in our professional careers. So we need to be in touch with everything as linearly as the jpb can be done.

    • Cost for Google Voice is stellar, starting at $10/mo per user.
    • While it doesn't offer a new Audio/Video conferencing solution it does integrate with GSuite so it makes use of Google Calendar and Hangouts/ Google Meet.
    • Gets the employee's to use their company phone numbers more as texting is easy and deployment is simple.
    • The cell phone app is reliable and easy to deploy.
