Ring Central is a solid small business phone service

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Overall we really liked Ring Central. The only reason we switched away was because a friend started their own VOIP phone service and we got to support them and use it for cheap. I really like Ring Central and have recommended it to several friends over the years.

Pros:

We used Ring Central for about a year and it was always pretty good. I really liked the mobile app because it allowed us to work remotely and not have to pay for phone service at our employees homes.

Cons:

The phone service only ever had a problem when the internet went down on our office or in my neighborhood. Ring Central was great, the internet was not reliable enough.

One Stop Shopping For Remote Workers & Nomadic Offices

5.0 last year

Comments: Our office used RingCentral for all it's telephony (calls, text, voice mail) needs for over 3 years. We rarely experienced outages or issues and it allow us to maintain a local Canadian office phone number despite working 100% remotely. Unlike some VoIP competitors it also had built in text message services which made SMS authentication through text seamless.

Pros:

RingCentral allowed our office to keep it's dedicated Canadian office phone number and take that office phone global with it's VoIP system. We we're able to use text authentication services, call clients, and keep our office going from any location in the world.

Cons:

RingCentral offers more than most VoIP services - mainly because of it's dedicated app. That said the cost of this service is far more than most of it's competitors. It's an expensive solution unless easy of use outweighs cost.

Can find better value elsewhere

1.0 last year

Comments: poor, Always had the issue of tying to get through to customer service and it was not a convenient experience. 1/2 hour to 1 hour hold time is not good for service.

Pros:

Nothing that is outstanding, used a fax line for small business and it worked well, issue was the price increases. Year over Year they wanted me to pay $275 or so from 120 bucks. I did not think that was fair. Gave them an opportunity to lower price and they refused, hence the change to another company

Cons:

getting through the customer service line for simple inquiries was impossible.

Comments: RingCentral has been easy to use and implement and recommend for small or large businesses.

Pros:

The ease of use and ability for our sales team to be able to answer calls that are meant for our team during business hours, and have a simple and organized location for all after-hours calls.

Cons:

No specific cons at this time. Before, the app did not include HUD features which made it more difficult, but this has been addressed.

Increasing Business Development Response Time

4.0 6 months ago

Comments: Overall, this software has changed the way our Business Development Team operates for our inbound marketing. It has made our response times to warm leads very minimal with getting a representative in contact as soon as possible. The dictation of voicemails has also changed the way we can provide a direct answer to a client even after hours.

Pros:

The ability to create call trees for different departments of our organization has been a game changer in our response time for leads.

Cons:

Some of the connectivity can be an issue between phone vs desktop application.

Comments: I was impressed with using RingCentral MVP functionalities.

Pros:

Aside from the functionality I like that you have the option to have an actual desktop phone, or softphone to use an app on a mobile device to stay connected with team members, prospects, and customers.

Great phone system with some room for improvement

4.0 2 years ago

Pros:

Enables us to setup teachers with Soft phones on their mobile phones, enabling them to call parents using the school's main phone number as their call-back number.

Cons:

The phone app is slow to respond at times, ringing 5 or 6 seconds after the desk phone (all settings are to ring all simultaneously)There are at least 2 or 3 different sets of instructions to setting up a hot desk phone, none of them helped, so the documentation on their website desperately needs a review
