FreeConferenceCall.com vs. Vertical Wave

I think that FreeConferenceCall.com is well suited for anyone, really. They do a great job at providing options for all types of scenarios-from basic phone calls to now offering the video conference. The only time I think that it might not be as advantageous to use is when there are only 2 people that are needing to connect-in that case it's just as easy to direct dial

The system does more than I've even had the pleasure to implement. I appreciate the staff and the system. It's stable and dynamic enough to meet any companies needs.

• Clear calls, it is easy to hear no matter how many participants are on the call.
• Does not kick participants off, we have up to 40 people on the call and it works fine.
• Easy to remember, the phone number and code is the same so it is easy for staff to recall.
• No busy signals, we can always get through to set up call.

• System uptime is tremendous, I almost forget it exists on my server rack.
• Desktop software is very easy to learn, I can train new receptionists within a few minutes and they don't have to memorize extensions or rely on a sheet of numbers
• Call recording works well, I am able to find calls based on a number of criteria and it finds the calls fast and I can easily export them for use.

Incentivized

• Recently callers cannot get onto the call
• Users on the call get bumped off
• Non-transparent policy about why problems are occurring. If FreeConferenceCall.com can't reliably provide free service, just tell me that rather than blaming it on a law that changed and local carriers causing the problems. The real problem is that the law did recently change, which allowed companies like FreeConferenceCall.com to collect a revenue share for all calls placed through certain hubs--even free calls. This loophole was removed recently, and I believe the service issues I've been experiencing are being used to extort users to buy a paid service in order to receive trouble-free service.
• I found customer service representatives rude and dismissive

• There are a few interfaces for working with the system and it can be daunting to learn
• They charge quite a bit annually and if you miss an update they charge you additional fees to catch up.

I am and have been extremely pleased with my use of this product.

I haven't had the need to call for any support at all yet for FreeConferenceCall.com. It has just worked splendidly for me. That being said, when I first downloaded it and got started using it there was a wizard which made every section and button very clear on what it does. It was easy to get started by following the wizard. I imagine then that their customer service will be just as good.

It's a no brainer!

FreeConferenceCall.com is much cheaper than Zoom overall and on a per-user count. We also believe the ease of use is more beneficial with FreeConferenceCall vs. Zoom. It is easier to set up than Zoom and offers quicker support. Being the admin of the call is also super easy.

• Saved time on having to meet sales reps in person.
• Goal setting and objectives are much clearer when being able to talk with someone when seeing them. Not having to correct mistakes or clarify things later on because things "weren't clear" isn't much of an issue when a video conference is used.
• Being able to utilize a free option is the ultimate ROI - it costs nothing!

• Good call tracking and automated systems allows for less staff and accurate metrics
