Ooma Office Provides A Flexible Reliable Business Phone Solution.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Ooma Office is our primary office phone. While we have old-school office phones, we primarily use them on our mobile devices with the Ooma Office app, allowing us to "be in the office" from anywhere. The virtual assistant is suitable for routing calls and handling frequently asked questions, and although we have used it in the past, we currently ring through. It's a full-featured solution for a very reasonable price.
Pros
- Saving money: Ooma Office saves a bundle compared to what we were paying for Verizon business phone services.
- The mobile app is the most helpful part of Ooma Office for us. We can be "in the office" anywhere, even if we're telephonically.
- The automated assistant can be invaluable in routing calls and handling frequently asked questions.
Cons
- Transcribed voicemail would be very helpful in the basic tier of service.
- Better caller ID reporting. Often, the caller ID is missing from incoming calls in the Ooma system.
- Better SPAM call filtering at the basic tier of service.
Return on Investment
- Ooma has saved a *bundle* compared to what we were paying Verizon for less capable service.
- The mobile app has been our biggest win so far. Helping us capture business we might have otherwise missed.
- The call assistant has helped us save time by handling frequent questions for info.
