### "Telephone!"

July 5, 2023

5.0

Pros

Well it's easy to use this because you just sign up using your own phone number, then it gives you another number. I hated giving out my personal number for my business to strangers so this makes me feel better.

Cons

I haven't used it that long to see any cons. But it would be nice to put this on my daughters phones without having another number to provide just for them to call me.

### "It works, and my primary needs are met."

December 15, 2022

4.0

Pros

It's an inexpensive phone system for multiple workers. It allows to you transfer calls within the Voice System. I also enjoy having the voice attendant feature.

Cons

Sometimes the calls drop, especially if there is a weak internet connection. It's not easily transferred to a landline phone system if desired.

### "Simple to set up and use"

July 20, 2021

5.0

Great experience so far. Easy to use and really cost effective solution. Like that it has texting feature as well.

Pros

Easy to set up initially. Easy to add employee access through the google business hub. Imported our current business number very easily. Easy to set up working hours and add voicemail.

Cons

Could have option for multiple voicemails for working hours and off hours. Could have call routing options to set up to ring different devices. But overall features are good for the price pointe.

Switched from

[Dialpad](https://www.capterra.com/p/190976/Dialpad-Sell/)

Price. This is cheaper and I can do without other features.

May 8, 2023

I plan to keep using this!

Pros

Google Voice is easy to set-up and a great way to make sure I can communicate with my students and parents without them having my personal information. I can also turn it off anytime!

Cons

Some coworkers have had issues with answering calls in the past.

### "Good but not the greatest solution"

September 15, 2022

4.0

It served its purpose for a bit until I decided to just transfer my number over into another software, which then I transferred into a physical device. Having 2 lines on one phone can get very confusing from time to time and it's honestly easier to just open another phone line with your service provider.

Pros

Business Number Separate voicemail Organization

Cons

Sometimes it lags a bit, it tends to be spotty, the announcement that it's a google voice number is unnecessary in my opinion.

### "Google Review"

November 28, 2022

5.0

Has been very good for my small business. I don't really like using my personal phone.

Pros

Effortless and has been awesome for my needs. I will continue to use this product. Overall easy and budget friendly

Cons

Doesn't filter spam. I haven't really had any complaints. I don't have any other comments about this software.

### "Safest and Fastest Online Calling"

June 6, 2021

5.0

I use the service for listener call ins on my podcast. It is very easy to use and transfer the audio to my computer.

Pros

I like that you are able to sign up and start using your number immediately, and that it doesn't display or give out your "real" number, even if you set up call forwarding. I use this service for listener call ins, and privacy is very important to me.

Cons

What I like least is the amount of emails the service sends out. When you don't check your number at least every other day, you get spam quality emails flooding your inbox about your number and the amount of messages you have.

### "Google Voice Review"

October 16, 2020

4.0

Pros

Google voice is a great voicemail alternative. I use it over my mobile phone based voicemail service and I've done so for years. I like that you can address it from any device, computer, and even through your email. It also does a decent job of transcribing your voicemail messages, which is great when you can't play and listen to a message.

Cons

It is sometimes tricky to setup for first time use.

### "A Must Have"

November 27, 2022

5.0

I would definitely recommend it this to my friends if it wasnt on the expensive side for people like me with a fixed income.

Pros

Offers free numbers and well as lets you make free calls in the United States. It even lets you create your own number too.

Cons

Its a bit spendy and it only works with apps from Google.

### "Best VOIP"

February 28, 2022

5.0

Pros

I like that Google Voice allows me to have a VOIP phone number to use for my business so I don't have to give my personal phone number out.

Cons

On the phone app, it doesn't always send the notifications as quickly as it does on the website.

### "Valuable Option for Communication"

July 26, 2021

4.0

I am very satisfied with Google Voice. I needed a way to separate personal and professional on one device, and this was exactly the tool. So easy to set up and use; I definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a second (or possibly first) phone number and messaging box.

Pros

Google Voice is incredibly easy to use. Within minutes of downloading the app, it was set up and I was messaging and calling my contacts. Since I prefer not to give out my personal number to clients, this was a phenomenal, simple option for allowing clients to reach me outside of hours without clogging my main line and inbox. When I get a message or a call, it immediately show up on my phone as a message/call through Google Voice, so I know it is business related. This has allowed me to be more efficient and responsive while maintaining a separation from my personal life and contact information. It is so easy to use! A very clean, clear, intuitive design.

Cons

I really cannot think of anything I don't like. It would be nice if there were some customization options, but this isn't necessary. It is designed to be simple and effective, and it absolutely is.

### "Great for small businesses!"

December 1, 2022

5.0

Overall very great experience using Google Voice. I would definitely recommend this for a small business to work remote and have access for all employees to send texts and make calls.

Pros

I really enjoy how easy it is to send text messages, receive calls, and set up a personalized voicemail. Google voice is simple to use and great if you're a small business owner!

Cons

There is sometimes a lag in the reception and the speaker option is not very loud.

Reason for choosing Google Voice

Our team uses google accounts so it made sense to connect everything under one brand.

Pros

I really like that you can switch your number if you needed to.

Cons

I didn't really like that the incoming calls didn't really notify me all the time.

### "Once Google Hangouts launched, this app because pretty pointless"

December 14, 2018

4.0

Pros

If you have two phone numbers (ex: one for business, one for personal), get Google Voice so you don't have to carry two phones anymore. I transferred my personal phone number to Google Voice so that I didn't lose it and it allows my calls to that number come through my work from. I paid for the initial phone number transfer but no reoccurring charges to answers calls at all.

Cons

The problem is Google Hangouts basically does the same thing. It becomes redundant when you log in to either account because text messages to your personal number show in both Voice and Hangouts. If Google can find a way to make better distinctions between those two services, they could justify having both. Otherwise, it seems pointless to use both.

### "Great Product"

September 20, 2023

5.0

Overall I am very happy with the service and have had no major issues. I intened to continue using the service so long as the quality sustains.

Pros

It has been great to be able to have a seprate line to filter work calls and contact through my phone. I appreciate that it keeps things seperate.

Cons

I tend to get randome calls from people trying to reach other people than me. Not sure if this is because the number has been recycled so many times or what else the casue has been.
