### "Phone.com is the best VOIP Office phone service"

June 13, 2022

5.0

Overall I absolutely love Phone.com. It's by far the best business grade phone service I've ever used. We also use it for our home phone service and it's been rock solid. I've recommended it to several friends.

Pros

Phone.com is by far the best VOIP phone system I've ever used. It has a variety of features and a good mobile app. Plus their mobile app is good. The best part is their customer service though. It is bar none.

Cons

Their mobile app could be a little better and it's been a long time but it used to be a tiny bit confusing but I heard they've fixed it. I set up our services once and haven't been back in years to change anything.

### "Look professional like a big organization"

February 17, 2023

5.0

My experience with Phone.com has been a wonderful experience. I will continue to use phone.com due to the wonderful customer service, the price and the ease of use.

Pros

I love that I am able to have a 1800 number and I can also text from that number and receive messages as well. Their customer service is very helpful and if the agent at the time isn't able to find the solution, which has been a rare case for me, they forward you to someone that can assist you or make a ticket for you and someone with the answer will get back to you within no later than a couple of hours.

Cons

I honestly don't have any cons that I can think of at the moment due to me having a pretty good experience so far and the software meets all of my business needs.

I picked phone.com because of the customer service they provide, their prices are great for a business just starting out and I love all of the features they offer.

The customer service was bad, and it was pretty difficult to setup the software and I am tech savvy. Did not offer a 1800 number for business use.

### "Great when it works"

November 22, 2024

3.0

Awesome when it works, but super glitchy and lately has been failing completely.

Pros

The features you get for the price are awesome. I love that we can call, text, fax and video chat from the same platform. It really streamlines communication with our clients. The customer service is also really great. Acutally get a real human, and they can almost always help solve your problem (except when their system is down).

Cons

The system is super glitchy. I don't think I have ever had a video chat that did not have some issues. October and Nov 2024 the system has actually crashed (servers down) several times - right in the middle of big client meetings. It has completely disrupted our business and reflects poorly. We would like to stay with Phone.com, but unfortunately we are probably going to have to leave, and pay a lot more for a more reliable platform.

### "Dialing for Dollars is EASY!"

January 30, 2026

5.0

I have been using it for two years, and everything is as described. The toll-free office phone number costs so little it is a boon.

Pros

Everything about Phone.com is terrific! From initial setup to ongoing support, pricing, and ease of use.

Cons

The ability (maybe I just don't know how to do it) to create an outgoing phone can from my phone. It just doesn't happen.

### "Sound Big For Little Money"

August 10, 2019

5.0

I absolutely loved it except that it doesn't have a google chrome extention which made click-to-call- difficult for me

Pros

State of the art PBX was highly customizable and made our business sound like a fortune 500 company.

Cons

It currently does not have a google chrome extention.

Hello Jack, Thank you for you feedback! The google chrome extension for the 'Click to Call' feature is actually something that is in high demand for some of our customers. We have been hard at work getting this implemented and will hopefully be launching this in the near feature! If you ever need assistance with your account, features, or setup please call (844) 755-8566.

### "They will torture you when you cancel"

December 5, 2023

2.0

Pros

Good price, good number, decent reliability.

Cons

I don't want to associate with ANY company that puts you on hold for one hour when cancelling service. You have no other option. YOU HAVE TO CALL. And then they put you one hold for 1+ hour. And the person was difficult to understand when I finally got through.

### "More than doubled their price"

August 8, 2017

2.0

Pros

Worked well for several years, before they changed their plans. Had good phone support when I set up a number of years ago and hassle free service until this past month.

Cons

I received a note stating that "unlimited minutes" didn't really mean that if I looked at the fine print and that I would have to upgrade to a plan that was more than double of what I was paying if I wanted to receive this same level of service I had been receiving for more than two years.

### "Terrible User Interface"

August 27, 2014

2.0

I initially really liked phone.com for it's flexibility in creating phone tree queues and custom messages. However, their customer "dashboard" is terrible. When I log in (after getting an error message every time) I finally get to the main website sales page - uh, why doesn't it direct me to my dashboard if I'm already a customer? To send a fax or do anything with the system is NOT clear in the least. The first options displayed should be big buttons to 1.Check messages 2.Send a Fax. But instead the big buttons are to view your bill or make a payment. It's not clear where to go to send a fax which the other main reason I got this account. I am a webdesigner and understand User Interface Design. The system sends an email to tell you if and when the fax goes through which is nice. If it fails for some reason you click the button to resend the fax in the email, however, again, another error message about a redirect loop. And after chatting with customer support they said if the resend button doesn't work I have to start over again from scratch. There is no way to log into the account and see the saved fax and resend it. Strange, especially when the email says it will save the fax for 7 days. So I'm not happy at all with the user interface. Too bad because these issues are so unbelievably simple to fix. Oh well, I'll find something better.

Pros

Good custom message creation and phone queue.

Cons

Terrible user interface No way to resend a fax through the dashboard Lots of error messages when user their preferred browser (Chrome) 50/50 failure rate on faxes so most have to be sent at least a second time.

### "Great software when ready to upgrade from all the free apps"

January 30, 2022

4.0

Phone.com gives me an alternate line for my business so I no longer have to share my personal. It's made having meetings and getting to see who I'm talking to simple and worry free

Pros

I liked that this software made upgrading from text now a smooth transition. The calls are clear and they don't drop. It feels more sophisticated and adult than my previous software.

Cons

There were a few too many options and extras for me to handle without having to look everything up piece by piece.

### "Affordable but buggy"

August 4, 2019

3.0

Pros

Phone.com does everything I was looking for in a VOIP. As a small business owner, it sure beats having to purchase a stand-alone phone.

Cons

My biggest issue with Phone.com is the app. It's super buggy and slow (unresponsive) to use. Given the affordability of the phone plan, I've decided I can live with the bugs, but they're still a pain.

### "The Worst Customer Service"

March 27, 2023

1.0

When transferring an account to another individual, phone.com did not update the payment method and is refusing to remove my payment method from an account that I originally setup. Their customer service could not understand the request that I was communicating and refused to transfer me to a supervisor. Any business that doesn't respect a customer current, past or potential future, - enough to allow them to speak with a supervisor for further assistance in disconnecting a bank account that belongs to a different individual than the account is connected to - does not deserve your business. There are other companies that have better customer service departments and better supervisors that respect their clientelle, understand the issues at hand and work to assist anyone that calls into their department. They were not helpful and refused to transfer me to supervisor because - even though I was previously listed on the account, I'm no longer listed on the account - so in their eyes, I am not their customer and the supervisors apparently don't have time to speak with me. I would never use phone.com and would recommend to my friends and real family - that they highly consider a different voip service that is customer service oriented instead of phone.com - who is not customer service oriented.

Pros

online functionality and ability to forward a toll free voip to personal phone

Cons

Customer Service is the worst, they do not attempt to help and they refuse to let you speak with a supervisor regardless of the issue you are trying to resolve. They do not listen and instead refer back to the script they were given.

August 10, 2021

Phone.com reduces the need to carry 2 phones or have a business line. It's affordable and easy to use.

Pros

It's HIPAA compliant with a signed BAA. Voice quality is excellent. The price is very affordable. It has the option to text and transcribe voicemails.

Cons

I would like the ability to send AND receive faxes at no additional cost.

It's your typical VOIP phone system, they have a great android app and do faxing which some companies leave out.

Pros

No Pros identified Don't go with this product

Cons

Mistakenly, I have used my colleague's Phone.com account just for few mins, but they banned our account and after connecting Support, they said we can't give you service and nor they have transferred our money. For any of the dialer I have used so far, they have given us the warning for at least once, but here there is no warning and no refund, I have barely used this account for 2 days. Don't go with this Dialer.

Overall my experience is positive. It's easy to set up and use.

Pros

It's a set-it-and-forget-it type of thing. We don't worry about it day-to-day, it just works. We use it with Ring Central for our business phones.

Cons

I am not sure exactly how it works with Ring Central for all our companies, which makes it hard for me to sort out my bills.

January 16, 2014

5.0

I've been a VoIP customer for the last 10 years and can't image using anything else. I've used 8x8 and Ooma in the past, but 8x8 is expensive and Ooma isn't really business VoiP. Phone.com was the best choice for my lastest company. They have great prices, excellent support and all the features that I need for my business.

Pros

Price, Support, Features, No Extra Charges for Toll-Free, Unlimited Extensions.

Cons

Signup was a bit confusing

December 12, 2018

It's okay. But I would prefer to go back to Grasshopper, even if phone.com looks nicer and is easier to use.

Pros

I think the app is well laid out and easy to use. It's faster and better than Grasshopper

Cons

The worst thing about phone.com is that it does not show when someone is calling my phone.com number so calls all show up as normal calls. I am the type of person who does not answer calls I don't know so this is a very annoying thing about phone.com.

September 13, 2024

1.0

It use to be good with the customer service was base out of USA all my issues were resolved immediately and in a timely manner. Now it's impossible to get help they switched to a 3rd party Indian company no one understands I spent hours on hold while the "looked at my account". Receptionist service was simple, efficient, and affordable. All of a sudden they changed providers and our bill has gone from $300 to $1,300 in 1 month with the same services. They will cancel your account even though they won't give you a breakdown of the additional charges. Use to be so good I loved it now it's horrible!!!!!!!

Pros

Easy to use once you understand how to use it Self us online kiosk

Cons

3rd party customer service that doesn't speak english over charges no clear bill with line by line items unclear updates receptionist services are inconsistent

### "worst customer service you will experience!"

October 30, 2024

2.0

signing up was easy. I don't have a great need for the service, but it makes my business look more professional. Unfortunately, I changed my debit card and now I can't update the info. So.... I can't pay my bill! The online change form doesn't work, you can't change It via their chat feature and you can't reach them by phone! I'm just going to let it disconnect and get another number somewhere else

Pros

I liked the fact that I could have a toll free number to use in my business.

Cons

The customer service is a joke! As mentioned in other reviews, they seem to have zero urgency in helping and you can't reach anyone by phone! It's kind of ironic that they provide phone numbers, but theirs is worthless. Good luck getting through
