Broadvoice vs Comcast Business VOIP (VoiceEdge)

Putting calls on park so they can be accessed anywhere in the offices. The system is so easy to learn for everyone involved. The customer service has been very good as well - someone does respond quickly when asked for help. I also like the fact that if I cannot understand the voicemail someone left, I can check my computer and hear it better.

Good for any situation where there are multiple employees who need to be reached by customers or in-house. Also cuts down on Robo calls because they typically can't / don't press numbers to choose from a menu. Can't really see this system being worth the price in a smaller-sized operation though, as there are far cheaper options that provide a much nicer management interface.

• Broadvoice is excellent for customizing/tailoring to a business's specific needs.
• Tech Support is easy to reach, and provides consistent help.
• Onboarding new customers is very thorough and supportive. Changing phone systems is overwhelming and time-consuming. Broadvoice makes it as easy as possible with clear expectations and fantastic training.

• Makes it easy to send and receive phone calls, setup extensions, and generally handle incoming and outgoing phone calls.
• You're able to receive business calls wherever you go, whether you're in your office or on your mobile device.
• The Voicemail to Text feature generally works well enough for you to know what a message is about without having to listen to it.

• Process for provisioning a new telephone can be time consuming
• Auto attendant text-to-voice options are limited and sound more robotic than some I've used
• Bits of information about telephone extensions/people are stored in multiple locations. Often I miss updating one piece and have to dig around for it a 2nd time. Not always found in intuitive places. (maybe provide links to related info? )

• Actually, this product has most all of the features which one voip device should have. There is nothing I dislike but the portable phone battery is an issue. If we continuously use this phone for long meetings then sometimes battery the dies. So that is the only problem I have seen.

Broadvoice is an ideal value. It's not the best possible IP based phone system but it's easily one of the best options if cost is a factor. We got a capable and easy to use product while lowering our costs, a total win-win.

At first, it seemed "daunting" to use but that is very much the same with a lot of things that are new. Broadvoice supplies great Quick Sheets to main topics, such as Feature Codes, Flow Charts, User Guides, which are easy to read and follow. Once it is used often, it is easy to understand, follow, and make changes to fit your company

Laura H. our Service Coordinator was exceptionally helpful when the inevitable hiccups occurred along the way. She calmly sought out solutions that kept the project moving so that we could meet our move-out/move-in deadlines. Also, their 24/7 Business Support line is staffed with knowledgeable people that answer my questions quickly and accurately.

Very helpful and quick

The in-person was done by phone and was GREAT!

Easy for even the most basic user.

It was straightforward to set up. The phone was delivered prior to installation. The script and routing of calls were established prior to installation as well. The on-site technician installed each phone and offered training to anyone who asked. The main setup for hours, calls, and extensions was already set up via online meeting, making the phone install on-site a seamless experience.

Other companies have used other systems, and there has always seemed to be a disconnect. The communication system can end up being a nightmare and truly ruin the day/week/month when issues arise. We have had the benefit of Broadvoice, so that has not been the case for us

I have switched now to MagicJack for business, while their support might not be the most amazing either we are very satisfied with the service/cost relationship and this has been a major game-changer. I am certain that Comcast has a larger client base that they have to look for that might be creating much more significant revenue. We have faced similar situations with other vendors and have found better solutions with smaller, shelving solutions that seem to cater more closely to clients.

• We have pretty much cut our phone service bill in half compared to our previous provider.
• The reliability of the system has reduced downtime to null.
• Communication, communication, communication is a must for any organization. Broadvoice has met all our expectations plus. Well worth the investment.

• In my experience, you have to pay to get out of contract.
• In my opinion, it's a total waste of time and money.
