Pros

“They require you to submit a reason online, generate a case number, and then call in to actually cancel.”

Emerson B.

CGO

“It feels like having a small business phone system without the big-company overhead.”

George L.

Managing Partner

“Even after doing all that, I had to go through multiple automated prompts before finally reaching someone who could help.”

Emerson B.

CGO

Pros

“Google Voice, through their HIPAA compliant option, provides a simple, low cost option for a secure voicemail/phone service.”

Shea G.

Counselor

“google voice also allows you to get verification texts as well as regular texts and sms messages.”

Marcus B.

owner

“It's a free phone number I always have access to no matter what and it's a simple way to always have a second phone number so I can separate my calls.”

Nava B.

Owner

Cons

“There is auto texts for missed calls but there character limit is so small you can't put much there.”

Milena C.

Office Admin

“This process feels intentionally difficult and not customer-friendly. If a number is ported out, the account should be automatically canceled, or at the very least, billing should stop.”

Emerson B.

CGO

“The only drawback is a small learning curve when setting up custom greetings and voicemail flows.”

George L.

Managing Partner

Cons

“You have to open up contacts to change contact information, you can't just change it in google voice, so if you mistype something, it's stuck like that only if you open contacts.”
